Max Whitlock and Louis Smith
As one who often questioned the GBR strategy bringing a specialist to major meets, you can’t argue with the results. Another brilliant Pommel final for Louis. Congratulations.

Max Whitlock
Max finished with a world class score of 90.641 behind Japanese legend Kohei Uchimura who took the gold (92.365) and Ukraine’s Oleg Verniaiev the silver (92.266). …
Britain’s Nile Wilson was also competing in the all-around final and performed sensationally at just 20 years old. He was faultless throughout which included an outstanding parallel bars routine for a huge 15.700. Nile finished in 8th place amongst some incredible gymnasts and clearly has a bright future ahead of him. …
Max:
“Kohei has been my idol for a long time so I’m very proud for him and Oleg [Verniaiev, silver medal winner], I’ve been competing with him for years. He’s been producing huge scores in the last few years and I’m very honoured to come third to those two.

Uchimura the greatest gymnast all time
There’s no way he can claim Scherbo’s career was superior. Not any more.
Ellie Black 5th AA in Rio
Ellie‘s best international competition ever. 5th all-around.

NBC Prime did not bother showing any of Ellie’s routines focusing instead on Seda’s terrible day. 😦 Serious Gymnastics fans and coaches should avoid NBC Prime’s edited version of international competitions. All of the available alternatives are more objective & show more routines.
