understanding Men’s Gymnastics scores

Men’s Gymnastics competitions are fantastically competitive and exciting

Much more exciting than women’s, in comparison.

BUT very few of the general public understand much about the scores. Since we dropped the “perfect 10”, it’s not worth bothering to look at the number for most fans.

Vault

Personally, I had Nishiyama 1st. BUT as a big Lavi fan, I’m super happy for her. Gold on Vault after 4th AA yesterday.

Bars

A deserving podium. HIT routines.

Sadly, Elena fell on release.

Floor

Favourite Dukhno had the most difficulty. But landings and O.B. dropped him to 4th. Judges “boxed” the E-scores, as usual, but I’d say they got the medal ranking correct.

Pommels

Worst Worlds Pommel Final I can recall. All 8 had falls or major errors on Handstand dismount. A disappointment.

Rings

World Champion Dante Reive. His father / coach is JD Reive, a U.S. National team member for many years.
