Last year’s silver medalist — currently training at Alabama — look likely to qualify to the final. She’s in 2nd position half way through the qualification round.

The 2003 German AA national champion Ronny Ziesmer was paralyzed training Tsuk double back preparing for the Athens Olympics.
I was reminded of Ronny’s story watching the far-too-dangerous Vault landings at Worlds in Stuttgart. Obviously the rules should be changed so there is less incentive in chucking BIG difficulty vaults.
Is Ronny coming to Worlds?

Though Simone didn’t mention it at the Press Conference, she decided to do one last vault in podium training.
Amazing. She sets so long!
Any male gymnast would be thrilled to do it this well.
Very few can do this vault at all.
