World Gymnastics Championships ’25 Jakarta – Women’s day 1

Three of 10 subdivisions are complete.

Here’s are the leaders, so far.

Vault

Bars … or we could name them Kaylia Bars

Beam

Look at you Amanda. Reppin’ Singapore.

Floor

All around

  • HIGHLIGHT for sure was Kaylia’s Bars. Unbelievable good again. The best who ever lived AND super consistent.
  • Kaylia fell on Yurchenko Double Twist and had a weird fall on Beam.
  • Stil — I could see Kaylia being World AA Champion 2025. It’s possible.
  • Japan is awesome, as usual. But had falls today.
  • Nakamura’s DEF on Bars is incredible. That skill should be valued higher.
  • Ellie Black leads Beam. This is her 9th Worlds? Or maybe 19th. 😀
  • I’m a new Kaia Tanskanen fan. Charlize Moerz is similarly amazing. Kicks out of Double Pike dismount.
  • Tiny Hwang Seohyun shoulda, coulda won Beam here. But she fell on Back 1/1.
  • South Korea is the most under appreciated team.
  • Karina Schönmaier is a new leader for German Gymnastics. And she’s very good.
  • Lia Monica Fontaine didn’t have a great day, aside from Vault. But Canada expects she’ll be the new AA for the team behind Ellie.
