FX EF INQUIRY (Jordan Chiles Stripped Of Bronze Medal/USAG launches appeal) PART 2

I don't know which judge. But it was the same judge. And apparently it has caused a stir...!

I feel that - unless they were handing out zeros like candy across the board - it absolutely should cause a stir.

First of all I would like to apologize for taking a screenshot of a post here summarising Leanne's book and posting it to Twitter! I didn't think before doing that and deleted it immediately when I saw people here weren't happy

Those artistry breakdowns were posted by me on Twitter, and I am glad they made it here as I find this group insightful and fun to read.

Below are the full breakdowns for beam & floor. Names are highlighted in green for the gymnast's best performance, ranked 1 per gymnast in brackets. 0.0s are in bold (19 on BB, 7 on FX). Gymnasts with the same totals are listed chronologically.

Some observations:
• E7 in FX finals only gave out 0.1 and 0.2s. Barbosu was the only one to receive less than 0.2 from the other 6 judges (only once too)
• All three British beamers getting a 0.0 from the same judge in TF was a thing.
• Aurelie Tran's floor was received much better in Paris than in Antwerp, where she did the same routine. (a redditor did a similar ranking for the 2023 artistry). Kishi Rina was very improved with her new routine too.
• Ellie Black's stock went down from Antwerp where she did very well. I am also surprised Esposito doesn't do better with her movement quality, and wonder if it's due to facial expression (or lack thereof)
• The AA FX panel was very tight, especially for the first two rotations compared to those gymnasts' other days.
• Ruby Evans did poorly in Paris, but her new floor did VERY well at 2025 Euros EF. She got 1.2 total which was 2nd, ahead of Esposito and only 0.1 behind Barbosu.
• Japan has beam figured out, Brazil gets everything.

Also these charts took FOREVER as the source is poorly formatted, couldn't copy paste anything.

UB, BB, FX finals results & rankings according to each of the E judges. Pretty self explanatory but those scores are the D score, each E judge's E score, and subtract the NDs.

• Bars & beam were unanimous.
• Nobody had Derwael top 3 on bars despite being 0.034 from bronze.
• 3 judges had Voinea 3rd, the other 4 had her 6th and even 7th (if I said I agree with that 13.2...)
• 3 judges had Barbosu 3rd, E5 (Oksana Omelianchik) even had her only 0.1 from Biles
• Only 1/7 judges had D'Amato as low as 6th on floor (her final placement) which reminds me of Ukraine placing 4th on all 4 events in 2006 Euros TF but placing 5th.

Interesting. Why so much inconsistency with where they ranked Voinea? How can one judge have her in 3rd and one in 7th?

Well, who's going to argue with Oksana Omelianchik?

thanks for this. were these circulated to the judges, post-meet?

also - who was the judge that gave the british athletes 0.0 on beam?

.5 artistry differential being common between judges for the same Floor routine, and up to .6 differential being a thing, is a bit problematic. It's not like anyone is doing anything particularly esoteric and controversial with regards to their musical interpretation and choreo, to create such a wide gap of opinion.

I think Andrade's FX deserved a bit less artistry deduction on the whole. Thank goodness she deservedly won the final.
