All with legitimate chances to win gold here and in Paris. With Kurbanov likely to be back in contention at the World Cup qualifying route next year, we could see 2 of the worlds best not even at the Olympics I just hope Rhys performs to the best of his ability today but I’m really nervous for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa Maciel 1,493 Posted October 7, 2023 #197 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Looks like Rhys is the last athlete to take to the pommel in the final and I don't think that is necessarily going to help him. Whilst he will know what he needs to do to win - both in terms of the gold medal and a quota to Paris - it puts him under a lot more pressure than he would have if he was going out in the first group of 4. He found himself in similar position in Tokyo and it didn't work out well for him and when he won the World Champs last year, he was up 3rd in final. Maybe I am biased, but I think the start order of the final today could favour Whitlock. We know he is in good form with 2 good routines in the team competition - and we saw in Tokyo what can happen when he goes out early and is able to lay down a big score. Today, Whitlock will be 2nd after Olympic silver medalist Lee Chih Kai of . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodge 849 Posted October 7, 2023 #198 Share Posted October 7, 2023 To be fair, I’m not sure starting order affects Whitlock being the favourite. His degree of difficulty effectively means if he doesn’t fall, he’s almost guaranteed to medal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
