2024 WAG Qualifications Subdivision 3 (MG 6 Blanco JPN MG 4 PHI/NZL NED) Sunday July 28 8:50 am ET

[Hatsumomo]

Sounds like this sub 3 feed is the USA one because we've got Laurie. Guess that's why they're focusing on PHI since they're all Americans.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

Heron currently 6th on vault, 13.65. Won't be enough.

 

[Passion]

The leo on the NZL girl walking by looked elegant.

 

[Sasha]

Did you all see Nakamura's UB? Did anyone catch the release she did between the bars? The commentators said Geinger, but I've never seen one go so high.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

Netherlands just 37.099 on floor, Veerman appears to have scratched. Not looking good for team finals.

 

[QuietColours]

Nakamura did the def!

 

[Hatsumomo]

Nakamura has a bit of a labored start, nails the Def (though it kind of looked like her coach touched her), overshot the Pak a bit, a couple steps on the dismount

 

[RedBirdie]

Japan off to a solid start on bars.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

Japan 40.432 bars

 

[Laura722]

Love Nakamura!

 

[Sasha]

Nakamura did the def!

Ohhhh, that's what that was! Wow, we never see Defs!

 

[Hatsumomo]

Ohhhh, that's what that was! Wow, we never see Defs!

I want to say the last time we saw a Def at the Olympics was Emilie LePennec.

 

[Sasha]

The gymnast from NZ has a doozie of a bruise above her knee.

 

[RedBirdie]

NZ gymnast is Georgia Rose Brown. Formerly of Australia.

 

[MRR]

Japan averaging 13.477 after bars. Netherlands 12.366 avg on floor.

For reference, Romania averaged 13.29 per routine.

 

[Sasha]

Wow, that Japanese coach was really aggressive with the spotting - she was flirting with a deduction.

 

[Sasha]

Blanco VT: Y1.5, I thought the scoring was a bit harsh on that, it was clean. Maybe they took for distance.

 

[CameliasFingerpaint]

I want to say the last time we saw a Def at the Olympics was Emilie LePennec.

Eli Seitz did one in London.

 

[Hatsumomo]

Kishi 13.566. Solid routine, nearly stuck landing maybe it'll be counted as a stick since she saluted before making a step?

The Japanese coach has definitely been touching the gymnasts on UB, I'm surprised they're not getting a deduction

 

[MRR]

LOL Laurie does not know the qualification rules at all. Why is she commentating?

She says Japan can't make TF by default
