Hezly Rivera hits Bars

It’s been a problem this year.

With Charleigh Bullock on the team, they shouldn’t need to count on Healy’s Bars in the 3-up, 3-count team final at Worlds.

Charleigh Bullock & Claire Pease to Worlds ’26

Based on 40% Nationals + 60% day 1 trials.

Claire Pease (Sunnyvale, Texas/WOGA Gymnastics) and Charleigh Bullock (Spotsylvania, Va./Capital Gymnastics National Training Center) secured their spots on the U.S. women’s roster for the 2026 World Championships following Day 1 of the selection event in Tennessee.

The top two athletes based on a combination of Wednesday night’s scores the all-around totals from the 2026 Xfinity U.S. Gymnastics Championships earned the first two of five roster spots, with the remaining three to be determined Thursday.

On Wednesday, Pease posted the top all-around score (56.700) and had a combined total of 78.340.

Bullock had third-highest all-around score of the evening with a 55.650 and was the second automatic qualifier to the team with a combined 77.610.

Skye Blakely looks to be the 3rd gymnast who will be added after day 2 of competition.

Everyone agrees that Hezly Rivera will be named, as well. But she had 2 falls on Bars on day 1.
