To be fair to Skinner, she leaves with nothing. No team medal. No individual final. No real Olympic experience due to COVID.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I suspect there’s probably quite a significant difference in mindset at the moment, given that all the ones being 2 per’d out are likely to be pretty excited about the possibility of going for the team title.

 

[Gabriel]

Is Flavia competing AA or only beam? Maybe this time around she might have a chance of placing top 3-5. I wish she could have had the opportunity in Rio.

 

[Puffin]

I think that for Skinner the issues are with her coaches (telling her she even had a shot at AA final), plus international scoring, plus Jade being on form have left her shocked. She thought she was guaranteed a vt medal after trials

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

It could be, but even based on the absolute minimum we know without filling any gaps in at all, she’s missing out an an Olympic final where she would be a favourite for bronze, because of the 2 per country rule, is amply sufficient basis to be absolutely gutted all by itself.

 

[Puffin]

… she has also suffered the curse of turning professional before winning anything

to be fair the Korean Yeo is only 0.033 behind her average score so I don’t think a medal was guaranteed

 

[Rich]

I feel bad for Skinner but she should be proud. i never thought she would do as well as she did.

 

[Gabriel]

There should have been a sit down involving Skinner and her coaches. They should have been made to realize that her execution was holding her back and cleaning up would have been more effective. But maybe neither are able to see it that way.

 

[mnesiptolema]

Ah, I forgot she qualified third to vault! Yeah, that would hurt.

I feel that Saraiva should probably have had the edge over Biles, now that the int’l feed has showed her routine. Unfortunately her connections were too slow to get paid, I assume.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

No, it wasn’t guaranteed. She would’ve been a favourite.

 

[glamafonic]

Flavia’s down. NOOOOOOO.

 

[shirai]

Oh wow Flavia limping…

 

[RAFIKI]

Awful awful (10 characters)

 

[glamafonic]

I hate it!!!

 

[Marcio_Custodio]

Nooo
Flavias ankle is not 100% healed, she watered down her fx

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I will not tolerate any more hobbling or carrying out. THIS ENDS NOW.

 

[Marcio_Custodio]

Rebeca rocked
Her memmel will be downgraded though

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I’m happy though. We will take that. Always hard to have to follow someone who’s got injured competing.

14.066 EF time for Rebecca!

 

[Marcio_Custodio]

She fix that memmel her D score is 5,8 or 5,9?
