[Rich]

that is closer than I thought. Italy has a good group.

 

[RedBirdie]

Italy is good, but US lost Sullivan minutes before competition started, and Sloane Blakely wasn’t there at all.

 

[irichluck21]

Right it was 4 up 3 count and they had mistakes and falls that counted I think the team total.

 

[Doug1233]

Is the Sullivan injury bad? If so I don’t want to watch.

 

[irichluck21]

So Miller also competed but I’m not sure who was the individual athlete.

 

[Kittentoes]

What happened to Sloane?

 

[RedBirdie]

Sullivan’s injury is to her elbow. No idea beyond that.

I made a mistake, Sloane Blakely is at Florida, Skye is the elite. Regardless, Skye didn’t verify at camp.

I’m trying to find full results to see who was on the 4-person US team. Probably safe to assume it was supposed to be McClain, Frazier, Jones, and Sullivan. The question is if the US was allowed to sub in either Miller or Mueller once Sullivan hurt, or they had to go 3 up 3 count.

Is the Sullivan injury bad? If so I don’t want to watch.

The injury incident wasn’t shown on the stream. You just see medical staff in the background wheel her across the arena during a dance performance.

 

[Doug1233]

must be bad for a stretcher for an elbow

I don’t remember the form being this bad in Tokyo, it was noticeable but everything about this screenshot is rank. I wonder if it would be as bad if she did a proper fhs into the front tuck?

 

[Kittentoes]

It might be a little worse because she’s clearly grown, so more leg to bend. But it wasn’t good. Wait, we are being positive, right? It’s a tuck front walkover.

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

They do indeed. Definitely strong contenders for the European team title and and a medal at worlds.

We need to talk about Konnor’s beam.



I loooooove the acro series, the height on the layout is something else, and the way she lands. It’s beautiful. But the leaps! The switch half is not pretty, and the switch ring is… not. Why is it still in there? Just do something else!

 

[GLeigh]

It looks like it was 4 per apparatus, not 4 as a team so they had Mueller, Frazier, McClain, Jones for Vault; Mueller, McClain, Jones, Miller for Bars; Mueller, Frazier, McClain, Jones for Beam; Mueller, Frazier, McClain, Jones for Floor.

[irichluck21]

I was totally wrong 5-4-3. Gymnasts not used on an event could still compete for AA.
Crossed out athletes were not used for the team.

 

[irichluck21]

UGH.
Romania’s A team struggled. They might not qualify to Worlds out of Euros with these scores.

Junior Event Finals
Sumanasekera dominated finals. She only has a 3.9 SV on bars because she is horrible at bars, but if she can somehow get it up to 5.0-5.3 range watch out for her AA.
USA juniors went 1-2 on all events but bars where they went 2-3
