redemption for Romania

It was terrific to see Larisa and Laura have a good AA Final. I’m certain Romania will qualify a full team for the Olympics at the Test Meet.

That’s important since top 3 AA at Worlds 2015 do not directly qualify a gymnast to the Rio Olympics. Neither Larisa Iordache nor Manrique Larduet have qualified. Yet. If either gets an apparatus medal in the Finals, they do qualify.

I doubt FIG ever considered the possibility that a gymnast from a non-qualifying nation might win an AA medal.
