2024 WAG Euros qualifying/Olympic individual qualifying/AA

[RedBirdie]

Brutal. The only questions is how many more will Italy break before Paris.

D’Amato’s injury is confirmed to be a torn ACL. How awful for her to have her season end by injury 3 years in a row.

Where is it confirmed? I have been waiting to hear anything, hoping it is minor.
How horrible for her and she is going to miss out on Paris.

Source? I’ve been looking all morning that’s why I ask.

Per Reddit, she replied on Instagram that they don’t yet.

Juniors
France won the team title, followed by Italy and Belgium. Hopefully showing that Belgium will rebound from not qualifying a team to Paris. 4th was Germany, 5th Great Britain, 6th Switzerland (good news for them), 7th Ukraine, 8th Romania.

Elena Colas of France won AA gold, teammate Maiana Prat won bronze. Giulia Perotti of Italy won silver. Her teammates finished 4th and (5th).

Side note: Great to see Kosovo sending full teams for both seniors and juniors. While there is still a lot of work to do, it is great that a small developing gymnastics country is putting out (And supporting) full teams.

 

[Caledi]

Isn't Elena Colas from the same gym as Carolann Heduit and Kaylia Nemour? I wonder how that will turn out for her.

 

[RedBirdie]

Colas (more accurately, her family) has made noise about switching to Spain.

 

[Laura722]

Are the women's team finals tomorrow?

 

[Nanou84]

Actually, it was Portugal and not Spain... And only if thé French fédération did not allow their coach on the floor which is not the case anymore. Hopefully Nemour's situation will help the fédération to take the right decisions too! Perla Denechere, qualified in beam and floor finals is also from the same gym.

Congratulations to our girls who did an amazing job! That's a historic finish for France, after 2nd place in 2008 with Dufournet and 3rd place in 1993 with Élodie Lussac.
Of course, congratulations to Elena!! I Hope it's only the beginning for her.

EF are today/Saturday and TF are on Sunday.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Shall we have new threads for each day of competition or just keep on this one and I'll amend the title?

I think a new thread is better. It’s easier to keep up to date and avoid spoilers

 

[onodian]

So they were really going to throw her a big score if she didn't have those balance breaks...



it took me about a full minute into the video to understand the music was, in fact, her music and not just a weird by-product of recording a screen or something. Artistry!

Her bars are stunning I hope to see much more of her.

Wow. Interesting format.

2024 WAG Euros EFs

Matt and Chris have just pointed out that Asia never seems to get through a competition without what could be a career ending injury. Harsh but true.

They seem to have decided to take her in the standard Romanian direction of being a BB/FX specialist.

I had assumed that she fell on ub as she scored only 11.3 - but she didn't - although her full turn attempt was pretty bad and perhaps not credited


Then her vaulting has really regressed - especially the dty - last year she came 4th in vt EF (up last for team Rom)

 

[tempest]

I don't think she had the grip change req either

 

[RedBirdie]

Definitely missing the grip change requirement.

I hadn't clocked the FTY. We've not seen her vault for a while, since she ran into the table at worlds. But maybe that was an indication of her not being comfortable with the double in competition any more.

Sabrina vaulted a DTY and a tucked Tsuk full.
