2023 Worlds WAG Team Final (Wednesday 10/04)

[Sasha]

Gymnastics is happening.

 

[Gymfan93]

The rest was nice, if cowboyed dismount. Shame

 

[onodian]

Zhou Fx. Please no. Me no likey. SHOW ME OU

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

This is giving the 2003 TF a run for its money.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

The dismount is always pretty much straddled even on her best day, I think she’s just too tall for it to look any other way.

 

[Hatsumomo]

This is quite the splatfest.

 

[Lisaelaine80]

It’s such a pretty pass, though.

 

[jezmerallia]

You shut your ***** mouth!

 

[Hatsumomo]

I think the only team that hasn’t had a fall just had a beam routine full of wobbles and missed connections that pretty much added up to a fall.

 

[Sasha]

Okay, that was a nice triple to punch.

 

[onodian]

This is quite the splatfest.

And yet, the Chinese might go 12 for 12

(really, if this doesn’t put the jinx, what will)

Zhou just hit her routine, based on the popular folk story “the tale of the woman who walked onto corners and decided to do turns”. Pretty fucking good twisting tho

 

[J175]

China momentarily ahead of the USA now

 

[RichardL]

France and Italy are tied!

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Shall we have a pool on who’s going to get the bizarre rule breaking deduction?

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

I was hoping for a scandalous Romanian Leo deduction.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

I kind of think a 6.9 E is a missed routine even if you stayed on your feet.

 

[JaJa]

Save us Shi

 

[Passion]

Yep! China is so weak on vt they could go into the last rotation comfortably in silver position and still finish 4th or 5th.

China qualified to this final in 3rd place with the same vaults, and Great Britain is doing their damndest not to pass them today.

 

[Caligym]

We could be looking at France/Italy/China all ending on their weakest event going for bronze?

 

[Hatsumomo]

China tends to be the winner on that one. Whether it’s a deduction for their leos being too small or for doing acrobatics on the podium, let’s see what other weird little rule they’ll inadvertently break.
