2020 Women's Artistic Team Final (Tuesday, July 27, 2021)

[Passion]

No prior history of meltdowns? Okay lol.

 

[tsarinajen]

13.666 for Grace.

 

[makam]

Her warmup was a fall and wobble, so she polluted it back in

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I think she just stopped her hand brushing the beam?

 

[Hatsumomo]

Right? Before Simone went to a sports psychologist, she was a mess competitively prior to 2013.

 

[PeakePups]

I really think we should wait for Simone to elaborate on what’s going on with her. I think it’s disrespectful to make assumptions.

She did not owe it to anyone to disclose during the meet that it was mental and not physical. I have a lot of respect for her confirming that so soon. Wishing the best for her.

 

[Sasha]

Irrelevant but I can’t help wondering how this situation would have played out under Martha. I can’t imagine it would have been pretty.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Russia is having a meltdown on beam.

 

[rlayt]

Melnikova off beam.

 

[Livi]

God Russia, will you ever learn. Melnikova off. It’s really theirs to lose, but they’re well on their way of doing that

 

[irichluck21]

OMG.
In heaven and earth

 

[Hatsumomo]

Simone would have felt compelled to keep going and not pull out. When under Marta’s tenure, a gymnast ripped her shoulder apart and kept going the rest of TFs instead of pulling out.

 

[tempest]

of course… oh Russia

 

[makam]

Well shit, Russia used all their hits in qualifications.

 

[Sasha]

Of course they did. :roll_eyes:

 

[arabiandoublefront]

That is definitely true.

 

[Sasha]

I TOLD YOU GUYS THE COMPETITION WASN’T OVER!! Lol.

 

[Rich]

what happened

 

[irichluck21]

Also, keep an eye on Italy. Completely having the best meet !

 

[makam]

Well, put AikhImova up, she already had her fall.
