Tokyo Olympics: Artistic Gymnastics LIVE Day 2 - Pranati Nayak fails to qualify; Simone Biles eyes history - Updates, results, blogs
Rotation 3 ends
Guan Chenchen. What a QUEEN. Was awarded a 6.9 D score on beam. I believe the highest of the competition. Gets a 14.966. Enough for a beam finals spot. She needs to hit in beam finals now!
ROC leads China still. Let's see what happens in the last rotation now!
Woah. Anastasia Ilynakova scores a HUGE 14.966 to top the ROC effort on bars. This means Melnikova and Ilyankova will make finals, throwing Urazova out of finals position
Jess Gadirova with a 14.033 on floor. Once again, EPITOME of artistry and performance quality. These twins are here to stay. Fabulous. This should be good to make finals. She is currently in second on floor rankings, with Jenn in 6th.
Guan Chenchen Beam: WOW. No words for that routine. She came here for beam and she absolutely smashed that routine. So amazing to watch her.
Anastasia Ilyankova: ROC- bars: the individual from ROC comes here for this bar routine, and like Chenchen smashes her routine. This subdivision is on fire!
Jenn Gadirova scores a big 13.8 on floor. Will hope to make floor finals with that.
Unfortunate fall for Elena Gerasimova from ROC on bars. Her main event beam is coming up next though
China on beam is TEXTBOOK. Can click a picture of them at any point in the routine and they will look absolutely perfect
Alice Kinsella comes back well on floor with a 12.766
Jennifer Gadirova up next: OH MY GOD. If you want to see choreography and expression and the artistry in artistic gymnastics, look no further. Unbelievable high flying tumbling and just fantastic choreography from Jenn Gadirova.
Her sister is up next.
Tang Xijing is having the qualifications of her life today! a 14.333 on beam. Love it
Urazova 14.866 on bars, giant routine from her. Looks like Melnikova and Urazova will make it to finals on bars.
Lu Yufei. Great beam routine. Wow. A consistent Chinese team. Love to see it. Beautiful extension and great difficulty
Amelie Morgan with a 12.466 on floor. Good routine from her.
Angelina Melnikova hits for ROC. Clean routine for a 14.933. Wow. Should be enough for an event final spot. Waiting to see what Uravoza does!
Listunova starting ROC off on bars.
Wow, clean routine and ends with a HIGE double double dismount. Brought that upgrade in at the right time. 14.766. The fight is on to make event finals for the top ROC girls. Only two can qualify
Zhang Jin gives China a steady start on the beam. 13.966
ROC leading China after 2 rotations, GB trailing them both at this stage
China wearing their signature full length parkas in the arena. Love it.
Warm ups commence for rotation 3!
