2020 Men's Artistic All Around Final (Wednesday, July 28, 2021)

[arabiandoublefront]

I don’t know how much longer his foot is going to last.

 

[tempest]

he does look like he is in pain and that was NOT a piked vault(but none of his vaults here really have been)

 

[QuietColours]

I couldn’t watch.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I find myself not at all sorry that he’s in 0 EFs.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

What happened to Onder? Did he get hurt on vault?

 

[QuietColours]

Instead of hiring former athletes, I wish they had a former or qualified-but-inactive judge as one of the commentators

 

[Indy]

I was watching the streaming on my phone as I walked the dog this morning and apparently I praise good gymnastics routines the same as I do my dog. Poor pup was super confused when I yelled “good boy!!” really loudly after routines. And yes, I know that is a ridiculous thing to yell at a grown man I’m watching on my phone but this is where we are four days into waking up early to watch gymnastics…

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

With 0.4 in it between the top 4 and 2 events to go, this is all still to play for?

 

[QuietColours]

Assuming quals is typical for the top four, it looks like Hashimoto has a slight advantage in scoring potential

Probably by about .4-.5? But he was down about that from first at the top of the rotation. 15.3 matches his PB qual score

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Hashimoto is ahead of Sun Wei now. This is going to be like 2016 all over again…

 

[arabiandoublefront]

They aren’t challenging for a medal, but I’m glad that Brody and Sam have just gone out there and hit their routines so far.

 

[tempest]

it’s looking like bronze for Nikita unless something happens on HB… sad but so glad he got his gold

 

[Passion]

If Xiao Ruoteng wins this I will be useless for the rest of the day. If Xiao Ruoteng loses this I will be useless for the rest of the day.

Just waving goodbye to Wednesday at this point.

 

[tempest]

Xiao Ruoteng

Not a huge Xiao Ruoteng fan but would be ok… I want Nikita or Hashimoto to win though… Hashimoto has almost a full point advantage based on his other HB scores so far

 

[Puffin]

omg Joe Fraser!

 

[QuietColours]

WOW, Fraser. Talk about finishing strong!

 

[tempest]

Sam being Sam

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Spoke too soon. Of course, Sam would nail his twister into double front pass, but then fall on the double front pike.

 

[QuietColours]

13.799 should be easily doable for Xiao if he hits

 

[Passion]

XIAO RUOTENG HIGH BAR

i screamed when he landed
