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. 😀
The IOC Olympic Studies Centre collections “include the IOC archives, the official publications of the IOC and the Organising Committee of the Olympic Games as well as books, articles and journals. Our resources cover all the key themes related to the Olympic Games and the Olympic Movement and their place within society”.
It’s next door to the very popular Olympic museum in Lausanne.

Dipa Karmakar: The Small Wonder (India’s First Ever Female Gymnast to Compete in the Olympics)
Hardcover only, so far.
Simone Biles (USA) added gold and bronze medals in finals, tying the all-time record of 20 career world medals .
Five gymnasts take titles as Doha Worlds end …Gymnasts from 17 nations won medals in Doha.
The 49th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships take place 4-13 October 2019 in Stuttgart (GER).
Many compare 2018 World Champion Nina Derwael with the great Beth Tweddle who won Bars at 2006 and 2010 Worlds.
Both competed the most connected releases of the day. Both were astonishingly consistent.
Beth did many different routines.
Click PLAY or watch her 2012 Olympics set on YouTube. Fantastic. If only she’d stuck the dismount.
Nina is still improving. Having won Worlds I’m guessing she’ll be training upgrades in preparation for the Tokyo Olympics. She’ll certainly be able to qualify in the AA even if Belgium does not get there as a team.
The whole world knows Ana Padurariu now. Like Shallon on Vault, Ana competed without her personal coach at this meet.
Click PLAY or watch the interview on Twitter. Mind blown.
And click PLAY or watch interview part 2. Ellie really helped the whole team.
Recall Elyse Hopfner-Hibbs was Bronze on Beam at the 2006 Worlds with coach Carol Angela Orchard.
Spencer things:
Kenzo didn’t win!?!
CARLOS YULO, our new favorite Filipino hummingbird, took bronze, the first medal ever for the Philippines
Alexa Moreno took bronze! Her Rudi and Tsuk 2/1 showed the second-best execution of the final, enough for Mexico’s first ever WAG medal
gold medal to Xiao Ruoteng over Max Whitlock
Hooray for Lee Chih-Kai! … It’s a bronze medal for everyone’s favorite flair monster
Nina things
With a silver medal, Simone has now completed the gym slam, with a worlds medal on every event
Elisabeth Seitz getting her medal on bars—finally a bronze
And, like, rings was a thing
Bebop and Rocksteady took first and second place, as expected
That’s the big story.
Any of the next 6 could have ended up on the podium. It was a thriller.
1. Simone Biles USA 57.491🥇
2. Mai Murakami JPN 55.798 🥈
3. Morgan Hurd USA 55.732 🥉
4. Nina Derwael BEL 55.699
5. Angelina Melnikova RUS 55.698
6. Melanie De Jesus Dos Santos 55.599
7. Chen Yile CHN 54.632
Angelina and Artur Dalaloyan awarded the Longines Prize for Elegance. Good call. I would have been happy to see Nina Derwael awarded too.
