mpjmcevoy 202 Posted October 7, 2023 #241 Share Posted October 7, 2023 1 hour ago, Ogreman said: He performed a 6.6 difficulty routine at the Paris world cup a month ago. Pretty sure he only didn't break it out here because he didn't need to push for a 15.400/ 15.500. It is mostly the same routine just with one different element near the start as I understand it. Now at the same time he did only score 15.100 for that routine in Paris but just to point out that he does have 6.6 D score in him. He's a smart lad. Only Whitlock can crucify him on D score, he's absolutely competitive with everyone else, and his execution is peerless, almost freakish - when he hits it, his execution is as unmatchable as Whitlock' difficulty. Once Max fell, his move was obvious. With my smaller GB hat on, pity of Max today but the week has been a huge success for him - he's back, his D is still ridiculous, and now it's just practice, practice, practice. With my big 'top-0-the-mornin' Irish hat on, I'm dancing for Rhys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,560 Posted October 7, 2023 #242 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I'm definitely not an avid gymnastics follower, but at least at Olympics and world championships I've been watching it for quite a few years now. Today I came to the realization that the low bar in the uneven bars is not standing straight, but at an outwards angle Well damn.

vinipereira 3,054 Posted October 8, 2023 #246 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Andrade is now the 11th woman in history to win a medal in every event at the World Championships. Only the 3rd in this century after Mustafina and Biles. Josh, maestro and Gianlu33 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thiago_simoes 1,359 Posted October 8, 2023 #248 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I can't believe what happened today. I just can't. First, Andrade beats the former Olympic champion after Wevers had a very solid routine with almost no mistakes, then Flávia finally earns an individual medal on floor after 9 years! And Andrade was SO CLOSE to beating Biles! It's like a dream! LuizGuilherme, maestro, Ted and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicsFan 783 Posted October 8, 2023 #249 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Really sad for the german women. Without all the injuries they easily would have qualified and probably finished top 6. I hope that Kevric will still have a chance to qualify. The men overperformed, hopefully some of the promising guys (Mousichidis, Kovalenko) will break through soon. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
