Hashimoto, Kovtun, Richard
Fred Richard, not Richards. Get that straight. He’s the 2023 Worlds Bronze medalist.
Fred has many areas where he could improve. Young with tons of potential.
A good AA Final overall. Comparatively few falls.
Many of those falls — however — were from top contenders at the END of the competition. My man Sun Wei had 2 falls on Pommels on the final apparatus, for example.
A crazy finish.
Daiki really is the new Uchimura. So clutch under pressure.
That’s Hashimoto’s 2nd-straight world title.
Kovtun’s silver is Ukraine’s best finish in the men’s AA at worlds (Verniaiev has an Olympic silver), and Richard wins the US’s first AA medal since Horton in 2010. …
Balance Beam Situation LIVE – MEN’S ALL-AROUND FINAL
Everyone is celebrating Illia Kovtun and Ukraine. Everyone aside from the gymnasts in Putin’s Russia. I hope they are STILL not allowed to compete as individuals in FIG competitions 2024. The Russian dictator vows to destroy Ukraine utterly.

2024 American Girl of the Year is a GYMNAST
2024 is an Olympic year.
American Girl — the toy company — has announced its 2024 Girl of the Year—Lila Monetti.
She’s a 10-year-old growing up in Minnesota who is developing new hobbies and pushing through challenges. Both a horseback rider and competitive gymnast.
Minnesota? Isn’t Olympic Champion Suni Lee from Minnesota?
MUST be a coincidence.
Women’s Team Final result
GBR took the early momentum lead, winning the INTRO dance. 😀
But the big surprise was the Olympic host nation taking the Bronze.
USA
Brazil
France
I really enjoyed the competition. A thriller.
There were falls. And some personal BEST EVER routines.
Great Gymnastics overall.
Italy really impressed despite not having some of their biggest stars in this line-up.
Brett McClure interview
After the USA team bronze medal.
He feels the plan to raise difficulty start score over the quadrennial did work.
USA should be even stronger at the Paris Olympics. They have a lot of depth right now.

JPN, CHN, USA
As many expected, China was suddenly good during Team Final.
In a 3-up, 3-count Final, it’s difficulty and falls that most decide the ranking.
Do you risk the big Vaults?
Should you take out difficulty anywhere to play safe?
It was a thriller. Every team had at least 1 fall.
Personally I felt USA was stronger than GBR this time. And if you add Brody Malone to this team for Paris, the States will be a medal favourite.
