2025 US Classic

[Matilda23]

I am baffled that someone pointing out that the winner of an event at this competition may have had her routine’s difficulty evaluation completely botched by the judges seems to be garnering no interest. Is it because Lew isn’t really in the mix for Worlds that people don’t really care?

Maybe because the silver medal routine of Simone Rose seemed overscored. It was untidy form-wise with several big leg separations.

Rose's bars were overscored I had it at 7.5, judges gave it above an 8.

Anyone else?

Lew would have been 5th if Judges corrected calculated D score.

If Roberson is getting hammered domestically, that doesn't bode well for a Worlds pen

I actually think the USAG judges have, finally, after several decades, received the memo on disgusting leaps.

It’s a shame they cannot identify a repeated bar skill though.

Peszek seemed like she already knew Rivera wasn't going to hit that dismount.

you could tell she was gassed by the end of that set

Yep, beam and vault scoring seemed pretty legit here. Bar and floor not so much.

Some of those floor scores were just fucking wiiiiiiiild.

yes lol, scores were wild but I think we might be under-selling Rivera as a floor specialist at least for this year. My money is on her or Wong being the strongest on floor at Nationals and taking a Worlds spot as a specialist. (Extra points for Wong if she has two solid vaults.)
