After the first subdivision of Men’s preliminaries:
1. USA 267.750
2. Brazil 264.050
3. Colombia 259.300
4. Canada 258.350
5. Puerto Rico 246.950
Fans were disappointed for Canada. They had a fairly good competition, I thought, after loosing National Champion Jackson Payne to Achilles injury in the training camp before the Games. The hosts competed only 3 guys on Pommels. All 3 hit. Update – Elfi said that all 3 had hit. But Ken Ikeda fell. Unhappily, too, Scott Morgan, former Worlds Floor finalist, missed and will not make the FX final. 😦
AA results (so far)
1. Sam Mikulak 89.850
2. Jossimar Calvo Moreno 88.750
3. Donnell Whittenburg 87.700 (fall on H Bar)
Elfi Schlegel was back doing Gymnastics commentary in her home town. Seems a shame Kyle Shewfelt – a true MAG expert – wasn’t used more on the Canadian TV coverage.
