Mai Murakami – Floor
Mai’s tumbling was probably my single BEST highlight from Day 1 prelims.
… HOW LONG have we been waiting for her to show this acrobatic mastery on the biggest stage? 🙂

6.3 + 8.166 = 14.466 (heartless judges)
1st place, so far.
Floor should be the best Final.

Yao Jinnan – Beam
Fall on standing 1/1.
Yet will still most likely make the Final.
Yao Jinnan (CHN), qualifications, Beam : 14.100 (D score : 6.40, E score : 7.70). Great performance on Beam. Second best score today behind Kyla Ross (USA, 14.566).

I’d call Yao the favourite to win both Bars and Beam.
She has a shot at the AA podium, as well. Her Vault and tumbling were far stronger than I expected.

YAO Jinnan – Bars
In first place, so far, without the Mo salto. (double front over the Bar)

15.433 = D score : 6.70, E score : 8.733
Low E scoring seems to be consistent, so far.
Yao’s in 2nd place on Beam so far (14.100) — with a FALL on 1/1 twist. Floor tumbling was stronger than I expected.
YAO Jinnan has a real shot at the AA podium with her potential high scores on Bars and Beam.
Anna RODIONOVA – Floor
Everybody loves this up-and-coming talent from Russia. Great potential. #WChAntwerp
