Every coach I’ve spoken with likes the new Vault rules.
But how are judges going to evaluate?

Simone Biles Leads D-Scores At 2018 Gymnastics World All-Around Final
The world’s least respected coach thinks Simone “doesn’t look invincible any more“.
That’s absurd, of course. If the greatest female gymnast all time wants some serious competition she’ll have to challenge the men. I’d love to see MAG vs Simone on a vault table 130cm high.
I’ll be putting my money on Simone. 😀
Vault
1. Ri Se Gwang PRK 14.933
2. Dalaloyan Artur RUS 14.883
3. Shirai Kenzo JPN 14.675
results
Some felt Dom Cunningham who finished 4th could have deserved Bronze. Kenzo was not deducted for stepping over the line on his stuck landing vault 2. There’s no deduction for landing ON the line.
P Bars
1. Zou Jingyuan CHN 16.433
2. Verniaiev Oleg UKR 15.591
3. Dalaloyan Artur RUS 15.366
results
Zou’s P Bars was the single best routine of the competition. I had him at 9.8 E-score.
Some, including myself, would have been happier if the Bronze had gone to Sam Mikulak 15.233.
H Bar
1. Zonderland Epke NED 15.100 (Exe. 8.300)
2. Uchimura Kohei JPN JPN 14.800 (Exe. 8.400)
3. Mikulak Samuel USA USA 14.533 (Exe. 8.433)
results
Jon Horton and others point out that the E score panel did not do their job. Though Epke deserved to win, there’s no way his E-score should be close to Kohei or Sam.
Vault
1. Simone Biles (USA) 15.366
2. Shallon Olsen (CAN) 14.516
3. Alexa Moreno (MEX) 14.508
North American #NAFTA podium. The first Worlds Vault medal for Canada. The first Worlds medal ever for Mexico. 🙂

Bars
1. Nina Derwael BEL 15.200
2. Simone Biles USA 14.700
3. Elisabeth Seitz GER 14.600
The best line-up of any apparatus this year.
Nina has been unbeatable all season. A deserving World Champion.

Nobody in the world — aside from Valentina, I’m guessing — questions whether Nina deserves Gold. But judges gave her 8.7 E-score. That’s too high compared with Simone’s 8.5 E-score. Aliya was cleaner than both yet was only awarded 8.633.
