Why does the third German quota go to Meolie Jauch instead of Sarah Voss (Floor)? Voss finished higher than Jauch. Is it because Uneven Bar comes first?

Correct. It's really the only part of this qualification system that I dislike tbh.

After canoe Sprint, Artistic Gymnastics is the second sport we just failed to qualify for the first time since the independence

 

Sad for Barbora Mokošová, who wished and worked hard this year to start at her third olympics,  but sadly, that fail in the UB did cost too much today.

 

Oh well.

@thiago_simoes are you watching??? early thoughts?

Definitely not "early" thoughts, but here are my thoughts nevertheless.

 

 

I'm very surprised with some of the teams that qualified on the men's side, especially :CAN and the :NED, two countries that flew under my radar. Canada went from a 238-ish at the Pan American Championships to 249, which is HUGE. Not to mention :BEL and :ISR scoring about 245, which is insanely high for these programs. Overall, I think it was a very fair competition and everyone who qualified seems to have done it the right way. I expected more from :TUR but they had a rough day and kept blaming the organization for mistakes that the gymnasts made, so... No, they don't earn my sympathy.

 

 

On the women's side, even the "shocks" such as :ESP and :BEL not qualifying a team, :CAN placing 12th and :ROU back into the team game were kind of expected because the writing was on the wall all year long. Only :KOR finally managing to qualify was a real surprise, in my opinion. :FRA has a great team with lots of individual talents that unfortunately crumble under pressure and things have not been different this time either. It will be great to see :GBR:BRA:CHN and :ITA battling for a team medal, while :NED:FRA and :JPN could be the dark horses. Probably the most exciting team final this century because everyone has a chance to walk away with a medal.

    • It's just that Austria had a lot of skiers in that time and we don't have any others among the young ones now.
    • Marco Girardelli went to Luxembourg one day and he had a great career. I doubt he did regret that move.

    • You know, but we still don't know what that was about. Ceccarelli has a difficult character but still changing colors to a country with which you have absolute no connetions? What would you say if Iga Swiatek fell out with the Polish tennis federation and started playing for Luxembourg or Andorra? Certainly not everyone would decide to take such a step, even if they had to give in a little in talks with the federation.    Another thing is that the Italian training system simply doesn`t work. As you can see, there are talents but we don`t know how to train them. Since the golden generation born in 1990-1995 (Brignone, Bassino, Goggia) we haven`t trained anyone who would stand on the podium in giant slalom or slalom in World Cup. So something is wrong. At the beginning of the 21st century we had a large group of good athletes in giant slalom (maybe not at Brignone's level): Karbon, Moelgg, Putzer, Gius, etc., who were able to win World Cups, win World Championship medals, etc. Now we have no one. In women's giant slalom for example: if Brignone and Bassino are gone, even getting to the first 20 in World Cup will be a problem for us.
    • I remember that Lara Gut's family also had a conflict with the Swiss federation at the beginning of her career around 2008/2009 but it was resolved. I remember that the family also wanted to have a greater influence on their daughter's career. It was probably similar here. If there was a will from both sides, an agreement should have been reached. Especially since Colturi has zero ties with Albania. Sinner could have played for Austria sooner, as a person from South Tyrol.
    • Berrettini defeated Kokkinakis in 3 set   And now, it's Sinner time.
    • Well, it was to be expected that Colturi was going to have a breakout result like that sooner or later and the state of Italian alpine skiing will create some very long faces. But hey, if Italy  let their "best" prospect walk because of money then it's their fault. If there was some personal feud between Ceccarelli & federation it's even worse.
    • Stage 3 in Gurgl (AUT)   Women´s Slalom:   1. Mikaela Shiffrin    1:40.22 2. Lara Colturi    1:40.77 3. Camille Rast    1:40.79   Full Final Results HERE

    • WOW!!!!!    4-2 down and facing 3 German counters, Bruce Mouatt nails an amazing triple takeout to score 2!      4  4 after 4 ends.
