Judges gave her 6.0 difficulty, 9.0 execution, and 0.1 out of bounds … just enough to have her win the AA.

Most agree that 9.0 was too high, then point to other routines over scored for Mustafina.

Many will continue to call this meet the SCAmerican Cup, an event with a bias towards the USA. Lauren Hopkins was there … and disagrees, saying “Wieber won fair and square“.

… What we really need is for Execution judges to actually judge execution, not box the scores.
