2020 Women's Artistic All Around Final (Thursday, July 29, 2021)

[Sasha]

Well, Suni wanted TF gold and AA silver, but I suspect she’ll settle for the opposite.

 

[cats]

Man, I am sorry for Vlada. That was an Olympic medal performance. It’s been years since we had a final with more than three of those.

 

[Hatsumomo]

We got an AA final where the top runners didn’t splat or meltdown. That was great.

 

[Doug1233]

Did Suni beat Simone’s prelims Score?

 

[Sasha]

Yeah, we couldn’t really ask for much better, under the circumstances.

 

[Hatsumomo]

Okay, I have to go to work now. I’ll be peeking on all day, though.

 

[MaryClare]

Suni doesn’t look any happier than she would had she just won the US Classic? What an anti climax

 

[choclatechip45]

So does Suni attend Auburn in the fall?

 

[irichluck21]

Yup. Unfortunately, the gold was lost due to the OOB.
But congrats to her silver!

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

No, about 0.3 behind.

 

[tsarinajen]

No Suni didn’t beat Simone’s prelim score.

 

[Sasha]

I think she’s just a really contained sort of person.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Nope, Simone was 57.731.

 

[makam]

She seems super thrilled. I’m betting with her injury history, getting through an AA is a gold more than any medal

Give her a moment. I am sure she is in shock.
She didn’t think this was gonna happen coming into Tokyo.
Even going into the finals she wasn’t the favorite.

You are super critical.

 

[cats]

The new pro rules make it kind of unnecessary for Suni to turn pro. She might defer so she can take advantage of a more opportunities but nothing coming her way will require her to give up her eligibility.

 

[Sasha]

Okay, gotta go to school. I think I’ll actually get something done today, lol, unlike Tuesday.

 

[Doug1233]

Melnikova got a GIFT on floor. That was no way close to a 13.933. Sad for Urazova I much prefer her gymnastics.

 

[falcon9]

Rock n’ roll SUNI!!!

 

[YurchenkoLoop]

This was incredible. So good to see the top contenders hit. This Games has been wonderful
