2022 World Gymnastics Championships Event Finals Day 1 (Saturday 11/05)

[ArnoldRimmer]

That’s the final back on track anyway. Whatever else happens that’s a credible 1-2.

 

[GymBeauty]

Stephen was off from the start in that routine.

 

[makam]

Nederosik should have had the shape of his goggles to look more Harry Potter-ish.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

That was terrifying, but he stayed on.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Oooh, he said 14.7 then got 14.4!

 

[Sasha]

Lol, i was thinking he looked like that “cool” guy from Stranger Things with the goggles on his head.

ETA: Steve

[tempest]

the live scoring is about a min ahead than the peacock feed

 

[Sasha]

Damn there are a lot of sentimental favourites in this final.

 

[Puffin]

Max Whitlock is coming back!

 

[tempest]

this guy goes in 2nd??? wha

 

[Sasha]

Well hot damn! I know nothing but i want this man to medal.

 

[Puffin]

Wow - guy from Jordan

 

[Passion]

Was really hoping Nedoroscik would medal here so it could justify them bringing him to 2023 Worlds.

Will they take a chance on him again with no medal?

 

[rlayt]

It’s great to see more countries in finals instead of just the top few.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Yeah he announced it a month or two ago iirc. He said he’d had some mental health struggles around the decision.

 

[arabiandoublefront]

Wow, that’s exciting.

 

[makam]

It would be tough. Is there a reason he doesn’t learn the crap out of some high bar? If you were high bar + pommels, you’d be a shoo-in.

 

[Puffin]

Medal for Jordan

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I love so much that we have people who are actually showing signs of age competing in world finals. This is starting to be a sport that even people who aren’t called Oksana can excel in as they push 40.
