Tang Xijing China -
beautiful mount, lovely roundoff layout - wow, great leap connections with textbook positions. What else do you expect from China? Another incredible leap connection. She is so on today! Just the dismount now
Ellie scores a 13.866!
Ellie Black: mount - switch leap - good combination. good double turn connection but a wobble out of that. Great front tuck! acro series- WOW stuck flic to full twisting back salto, another acro right after - flic to layout but will get a pike credit i think?
wow, great dismount! Very happy with that, she is in tears. After withdrawing other events - she finally made it
Simone Biles is all smiles!

Beam finalists are in the building!
Victory ceremony just about finishing, Beam up next!
I have said this like six times already haha, but alas nothing I can do
An emotional message from Romania's Larisa Iordache. The gymnastics community was delighted when she secured her place at the Olympics earlier this year. What an unfortunate end for her. She had a bad landing off the beam in the qualification round and had to withdraw today form the final as well.
She also lost her mom a month ago, which only makes things harder for her. She promises to come back! The grit this woman has, wow. Definitely a lot to learn from her.
