Just like four years ago, Gabby Douglas posted the highest all-around score at the American Cup. There was just one significant difference on Saturday.
“My scores counted!” Douglas said.
Lauren was there. Here’s her LIVE commentary.
Ryohei is the first Japanese man to win this meet since Tsukahara the 1st did so in 1977.
