who predicted SPAIN would be going to Tokyo?

Roxana did.

Carlos Yulo – Podium Floor

My biggest highlight of Men’s podium training  for me was some kid in baggy shorts and t-shirt on Floor.

Hey, that’s Carlos Yulo, the 2018 Bronze medalist.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube. He’s looking even BETTER this year.

Max Whitlock – Podium Pommel

China the favourite in Men’s team

Coming into Stuttgart I was thinking that this is Russia’s year. So much difficulty. And Russia has been quite consistent.

Then I watched China in podium training. They have a big advantage over Russia on Pommels and P Bars. Can RUS make up that difference on the other 4 apparatus?

Ellie Downie – Cheng

Ellie had a surprising bad day in preliminaries. But leads Vault qualification so far with DTY and this awesome Cheng.
