Vault: Simone, Jade, Mykayla

As it turned out, USA selected 3 gymnasts who could medal on Vault in Tokyo.

Bars – strongest apparatus Tokyo

I feel Bars will be the most exciting and competitive apparatus at the Olympics.

Here are many (but not all) of the contenders for Finals.

Riley would have been in this group, but I wouldn’t rank her top 3.

I’m hoping the execution judges will do their job. E-score should decide finalists and medalists.

But I’m assuming they’ll be out-of-practice. E-scores will be boxed closely together, regardless of performance. If so, the highest D-scores will be at an advantage.
