I'm still so gutted that we won't see a healthy Jess Gadirova in Paris. Hopefully she's the only main contender to drop with an injury, but it's just a huge ugh.I don't pretend to understand the thought process of BG. While you and me can look at the reality of British gymnastics right now and what the top teams are looking like currently and say "yep, prioritize individual over team," BG may still be delusional enough to think they could medal if everything goes their way.
I'm leaning "take Becky" only because if she does hit (as wildly unlikely as that may be), she adds more to bars than GMF and potentially could medal, so covers both the team and individual medal goals. But, again, neither gymnast fills me with any confidence.
Doing some serious what-if with Jess Gadirova's knee. If they had done surgery right away, would she be able to land a bars dismount in Paris? Definitely not the prettiest bar worker, but she's reliable AF.
