Based on the numbers available, Kensley ranks the podium teams:

1. China
2. Japan
3. USA

… China, Japan, USA, Great Britain, Ukraine, and Italy should make the team final. The last two spots for the team final are going to be incredibly competitive and dependent on the day.

The same is true of those fighting for the last team spots for the Olympic Games. …

Read Spencer’s LIVE blog on day 2 of the Worlds Selection Camp.

He’s not convinced the highest scoring team was selected.

Personally, with Simone any team is near guaranteed to win. Therefore, I’d select the team with the best medal potential AA and Apparatus.

Very strong!

It did not go well.

Scores were down from Nationals.

Some felt the Vault table was slippery.

Judges made some mistakes even though there are few competitors and they should have all those routines memorized.

U.S. Trials AA Standings

1. Simone Biles 55.700
2. Shilese Jones 55.300
3. Skye Blakely 55.000
4. Joscelyn Roberson 54.900
5. LEanne Wong 54.850
6. Kaliya Lincoln 54.350
7. Kayla DiCello 54.250
8. Tiana Sumanasekera 53.800

Biles earns an automatic spot on the worlds team!

Team will be named after day 2.

Gymnasts can show 1-3 apparatus of their choice.

GymCastic feels Shilese, and Skye are near locks at this point.

… Is it a good idea to have 4 competitions on hard mats so close together. And so close to Worlds?
