Can someone update me with the latest Sabrina/Camelia drama. I can’t work out what actually happened

I didn't see what Camelia was doing yesterday, she may have already left the arena at this point, but the Sabrina thing happened during the UB rotation. Barbosu was up on bars doing her routine and the camera was zoomed in on the other Romanians because it was showing Oprea's score. Golgota was cheering, clapping, and yelling for Barbosu while Sabrina stood next to her like a statue with her hands folded in front of her. When Barbosu walked off the podium everyone was congratulating her, she hugged Golgota and Sabrina would have been next but Sabrina turned her back on her and just walked away.

The decision to scratch Sabrina from VT likely cost Romania the bronze medal. They could have taken bronze with a 13.3 on vt to replace Cosman's 12.8. Even a pretty crappy dty would have likely been enough for 13.3.

I don't know if she is injured - she didn't seem injured. I wonder who made the decision for her not to vault?

I feel for Sabrina as she had a really crappy competition and didn't contribute a single counting score to Romania. She was likely hoping to medal on bb/fx and then to fall on a forward roll bb mount and then again on her 3rd fx pass must have been a big blow for her. She really needs new coaching - the days of just chucking skills are over - but I guess that won't happen while her mother is in charge.

A friend sent me a photo of her upset on the sidelines after FX. Perhaps they thought she was too upset to vault safely?
