Well, glad I didn't watch this live. I don't need that kind of stress in my life lol.

 

[MaryClare]

Jade. She looked white as a sheet today, glad she was able to vault well. Hope she feels better soon!

I thought Jade looked pale at podium training. But I assumed it was exaggerated because she was standing next to her team mates, who are not pale

 

[tempest]

I thought I was going to have an attack lol

 

[Doug1233]

and can you prevent it then

You rest it. No load. 4-6 weeks.

Does anyone have the address of the Olympic Village? I want to express mail my calf and Achilles to Simone to borrow.

Hannibal Lecter would like a word with you.

 

[Denn]

Thank you, @Concorde ! I couldn't find video at the time to see what she did and write it up. I vaguely remember she had been around 6.9 (with the downgrades) not so long ago and forgotten that she had added other upgrades.

I was mulling over the same issue, and had the same thought as you. Sometimes it's the contrast, and she's never been sort of 'bright' white iyswim. But I still thought on balance she looked a little drawn.

Ou Yushan is still sitting pretty in 5th on floor. Is she about to make the final?

I don't see how not!

 

[Memphisgym]

How is Jordan looking for floor?

 

[RedBirdie]

Jordan is in.

 

[glamafonic]

And qualified in third!

I honestly don't think I could tell whether Jade was pale, or just pale.

 

[RedBirdie]

Watching later, the lack of color in Jade's cheeks was obvious.

 

[irichluck21]

The close up with Jade showed she has sunken eyes, which is a sign of dehydration and not enough sleep.
Sounds like she and Brian both got the stomach flu or food posioning.

I would keep her off floor and have Hezly or Suni go.
I also hope Simone lets Hezly do bars in TF and takes a small break.
Not sure if I would put Hezly on beam instead of Jordan given her TQ errors, though a hit Hezly beam would go around 14.

 

[cftmoonlight79]

Im actually worried about Team USA. Hopefully they look sharper on Tuesday.

Their "unsharp" performance netted them nearly a 6-point lead over second today. I'm a tad worried about Simone's leg and Jade's health and stamina, but results-wise, the gold is theirs short of an epic meltdown.

 

[makam]

I mean, they had a bit of a rough day and were lucky to be able to drop some scores, but they were still 5 points in the clear. They get to start on VT and will pretty well know where they stand when floor rolls around. I mean China might stay on the beam and hit full difficulty, but...

I am adding Simone's Achilles to my prayers.

 

[cftmoonlight79]

I'm still thinking worst case scenario with Simone having and injury and Jade being too ill to go and the last 3 left standing to bear the brunt. Let's hope those don't play out. They can withstand no Jade on floor, but they need decent Simone.
