Pranati - Floor Exercise
Pranati hits her first pass a 2.5 twist and her second, a double tuck well. Strong last two passes as well with a double twist and forward full twist! Seems to have lost out on some execution errors, since there were no falls in that routine whatsoever

Pranati on Floor
Pranati gets through her first performance of the Games on floor exercise, scoring a 10.633. She had a 4.40 D score with a 6.233 in execution.

It's time!
Female gymnasts will bring their 'A' game to the Games with the very first competition at the Ariake Gymnastics Centre. Today is QUALIFICATION DAY in Tokyo for the women!
This is the only day for gymnastics where no medals will be awarded. Even though there are no medals this is probably one of the most important days for the gymnasts.
