Over-layed. Surprisingly similar, Dipa’s was (slightly) the best of the three.

British girls medal at Worlds
An excellent wrap-up linking to photos and video.
British Gymnewstics:
Great Britain has made three world team finals, 2007 where they finished 5th, 2011 also fifth, and then 6th last year in 2014.
I sat down last night with that excited, nervous, anticipation that’s been growing more and more as I’ve watched British Gymnasts over the last decade. It started way back every time Beth made European finals, then world finals, it progressed to European team and individual finals, and now here we are, world championship team finals, and there is a genuine possibility that this team could medal. …
Becky Downie, Ellie Downie, Charlie Fellows, Claudia Fragapane, Ruby Harrold, Kelly Simm, and Amy Tinkler will go down in history as the first ever world team medalists Great Britain WAG has ever produced, I have a feeling they are the first of many. …

Belgian Men’s Gymnastics
Belgium will not send a full team to the Test Event. They finished 17th … just missing. 😦
But this is a nation on the way up. They looked great.
Congratulations.
Florence Lestienne:
Four years ago, at the 2011 World Championships, Belgium didn’t even have a full team!
In the past three years, those boys have improved so much! They already made history last year, placing 19th at Worlds, earning the best result Belgium has ever had and qualifying a full team for a pre-olympic World Championships. And on Monday, they were 17th! …

Japan Ends China’s Winning Streak
Dwight Normile:
China came to Glasgow as winner of six straight world titles, but it struggled early with a fall on its second event, pommels, and was never in the hunt until it surged into the mix with the highest parallel bars total in rotation five (47.765).
The Chinese finished on high bar, where a year ago Zhang Chenglong dumped Japan to second by 0.10 with the last routine of the meet. This time, however, he opened early on a half-Takemoto and finished on the wrong side of the bar. That was enough to end China’s gold medal hopes. …
It’s been 33yrs since Japan won Worlds.
Men’s Worlds Team Final
Men’s Team Final rebroadcast on YouTube. Geo-blocked in some areas.
World Champions: Japan, GBR, China
Fantastic show tonight in the Men’s Team Final at #Glasgow2015. The guys hit a higher percentage of routines than did the women the previous evening.

Max Whitlock capped the night with as good a Floor routine as he’s ever done to thrill the home crowd. 🙂
Japan had a big lead going into their final apparatus, Horizontal Bar. Rather than play it safe, they went full difficulty. Shockingly Tanaka fell on release. Then Kohei fell on release.
Dramatic music played as we waited for Uchimura’s score. Happily it was enough to pull out their long awaited team victory.
