Kyla ROSS – Beam

14.566 = D score : 5.90, E score : 8.666

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Kyla hit 4/4 in the first preliminary session. AA = 59.198. Impressive everywhere.

59.198 should get her into the AA final. I don’t think Maroney will beat that score, even if she does hit 4/4. … But we’ll see.

8.733 E score on Ross’ Bars?

15.133 = D score : 6.40, E score : 8.733

Let’s compare other E-scores on Bars.

Kaitlyn Hofland was way underscored, as well.

Are these judges going to make the classic mistake — starting the scoring low, then escalating later?

More highlight routines are being posted on the FIG YouTube channel.

Hoping to make history in Antwerk with the first Worlds double double layout.

There was a real chance that Tori would not be entered in the AA.

She is. 🙂

Diego Hypolito – FX & Vault finals

Good news for the Olympics 2016 host nation.

Not perfect, but LOVE the Arabian double front to front 1/1.

Vault prelims were better. He’ll qualify to both finals.

Ri Se Gwang – no FINAL

What a shame.

This guy threw by far the most difficult two Vaults at #WChAntwerp.

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

1st Vault : 14.275 (D score : 6.40, E score : 8.175, penalty : 0.30), 2nd Vault : 15.366 (D score : 6.40, E score : 9.066, penalty : 0.10). Average : 14.820.

Beam Finals?

I spoke with one of the Beam judges.

From #WChAntwerp Podium training she liked Iordache and the Chinese. Sanne Wevers. Biles.

But said that many, many gymnasts could qualify to that Final if they hit a near perfect routine in prelims. As Kyla Ross almost certainly will do.

Giulia Steingruber is awesome

If you want to pick a long shot for the AA podium at #WChAntwerp, bet on Giulia.

She’s upgraded her Vault and is strong on all 4 apparatus.
