how to pronounce Rhys McClenaghan
The Irish Pommel specialist is a Finals contender. Disappointed that one of his idols, Berki, won’t be competing.
Podium training went well.

Denis Ablyazin – Podium Rings
Denis is now age-27.
A legend of the sport with many medals on Floor, Vault and Rings to his credit, some were surprised with his inclusion on this Russian team.
Makes sense to me. If he hits his scoring potential on those three apparatus would be higher than an AA gymnast like David Belyavskiy.

Spieth equipment at Worlds
I’ve yet to hear a complaint. Nine sets of apparatus.
Boss man Markus prefers to work with ladies as they are more careful and precise than us men. 😀
Note that FIG still approves apparatus with a single point of failure. If one part goes wrong, the entire apparatus can fall. No redundancy. I’m still shocked this dangerous industry standard persists.

Tom Forster on U.S. Podium training
Inquiring minds want to know.
He’s not yet announced the alternate nor apparatus line-ups. We might have to wait until 24 hours in advance of prelims.

Vault – Jade vs MyKayla
LIVE I thought MyKayla was slightly better than Jade in podium training.
But watching slow motion on YouTube I’m thinking Jade would score higher.

the role of Worlds Alternate
Perhaps the most difficult job at Worlds is traveling alternate.
You do all the same work, … but probably won’t get to the BIG stage.
We all want an individual competition for those gymnasts immediately after Worlds. It would be a fantastic competition.
Pauline Schaefer is the alternate here at home.

Kim Bui was once the German alternate. She knows what Pauline is going through.
