Simone Biles Floor – millions of views
The NBC video of Simone’s Floor is close to 15 million views as I post. NBC is going to LOVE Gymnastics in Rio. 🙂
Isabela Onyshko, Ellie Black, Brittany Rogers
Are going to Rio. Congratulations. 🙂
Two more and the reserves will be named Thursday morning.
Brittany went 57.084 on day 2 to secure 3rd place on the Olympic team.
Brazil’s Olympic team
Four-time Olympian Daniele Hypolito, 31, will lead her fifth team, one that also includes her 2008 Olympic teammate Jade Barbosa, 2015 worlds team member and national champion Lorrane Oliveira, 2015 worlds team member Flavia Saraiva, and Rebeca Andrade, who suffered a series of injuries between 2014 and 2015, but helped her team to a first-place finish at the Olympic Test Event in April. …
“These five were very good at the test event,” Vidor said. “This team will not change, barring injury.”
I expect Brazil to reach the team final. Top 8.
