Tokyo Olympics: Artistic Gymnastics LIVE Day 2 - Pranati Nayak fails to qualify; Simone Biles eyes history - Updates, results, blogs
Rotation 3
Fan Yilin closes out the rotation with a MASSIVE 14.600 on bars, that should be good enough to get her to bar finals!
I say this every rotation, but get ready for this rotation because China goes to beam where they are TEXTBOOK, Russia to bars (they're unbelievable there) and GB to floor so look out for some fun choreography
Rotation 2
Alice Kinsella devastated with that fall on beam. She definitely aimed at making the beam final! Not her day today
Everyone preparing for the next rotation waiting on China to finish bars
Fan Yilin is last up. Former world champion on the event comes as the Chinese individual here.
Great routine, clean and makes all her connections, happy with that. She came here for this one event and hit!
Gadirova twins wobbly but get through beam routines well, Jessica scores a 12.866 and Jennifer with a 13.300.
Lilia Akhaimova vault score passes Melnikova, but looks like both will get into vault finals!
Lilia Akhaimova: Great first vault, goes for the Rudi, 14.766
Second vault: Double twisting tsukhara, little bit of form errors in the air, but good overall. 14.633
China smashing uneven bars at the moment:
Lu Yufei scores a big 14.7! Should be good for event finals
More routines
Alice Kinsella Beam: starts well. Off on her triple turn, Oh no!! No beam finals for Alice. Unfortunate because she is a beautiful beamer.
Angelina Melnikova Vault: 14.466 for the first vault, Great!
Goes for the upgraded vault here today: Cheng - Hits it, a few mistakes but that was a success!! Scores a 14.766 on the Cheng. Will wait to see if it holds up for vault finals
Vault and bars
Listunova starts off ROC on vault after that sensational floor routine! Scores a decent 14.300
Vladislava Urazova follows it up with a 14.6!
Tang Xijing: Bars: clean routine, lots of those classic chinese intricate turns, ends a with a lovely double layout dismount! Wow, she is on today!
Correction! Team GB bars score was down 2.4 over the last Worlds not 1.4.
Wow! Team GB has some explaining to do
Beam
Amelie Morgan starts Team GB on beam:
good routine, few wobbles here and there but clean overall.
China on Bars: Get ready to be absolutely MINDBLOWN!
RCO on vault and GB goes to beam!
Rotation 1
Controversially leaving behind the reigning world silver medallist, Becky Downie, leaves Great Britain 1.4 points lower in their bras score compared to the World Championships last year! Definitely seems strange!
ROC individual Elena Gerasimova starts a beautiful floor routine, but unfortunately falls on her double tuck!
That ends Rotation 1!
