It's also another one of those "pinch me" moments to see Ireland with a gymnastics world champion, something we could only dream of some years ago.

At this point one wonders how much of that lottery funding is spent under the table.

I forgot to mention about the craziest thing I've seen at Worlds. But first, let me explain something. As most people know, scores are divided in execution and difficulty. There are separate scores for each. The execution score can never be contested, but the difficulty score can. Inquiries can be sent to the judges' panel only by a gymnast who challenges the difficulty score of his/her routine. This means that it is impossible to challenge the difficulty score of another routine.

 

Jade Carey received a 6.0 D score and 13.833 in total. She believed she deserved a 6.1 D score, so she decided with her coach, who is her dad, to challenge her D score. At that point, she was guaranteed a medal with Jessica Gadirova still to come. Rebeca Andrade received 13.733 (5.9 D) and was in third at that point, with soon to come Jessica Gadirova seriously threatening her chance of getting a medal. Andrade sent an inquiry about her score before and the inquiry was rejected. Carey's inquiry, however, caused her score to change... but it was changed to a LOWER score. So, Carey's difficulty was reduced to 5.9 and her final score was 13.733. Now, this meant that Carey tied Rebeca. Gadirova performs and wins, and then Carey gets a bronze medal along with Rebeca. If Carey had not challenged her own score, she would have earned the bronze medal and Rebeca Andrade would have been fourth.

So, basically, Jade Carey unknowingly gifted Rebeca Andrade a medal everybody was not expecting her to win.

I have finished watching last apparatus finals and one more thing came to my mind...

 

There is so much technical progress in the world, new advanced technologies, Man landed on the Moon and so on...

 

But athletes numbers are still put on their clothes using SAFETY-PINS... :-) Will it ever change?

      Sarcastically of course, cheering for the fact she basically received no punishment     Tennis and football are jokes in terms of combatting doping.

      Excited as always   My main thought was "alright, only 18 countries in the women's race and apparently no wildcards for anyone, that's decent news"
