Provisional Olympic qualification after 2 of 4 subdivisions:

 

Luciana Alvarado: 50.833

Abigail Magistrati: 48.433
 

What a great surprise to see Alvarado ahead of Magistrati, even though  will likely beat this score. Magistrati is the reigning South American champion in the all-around. Quite shocking, indeed!

After yesterday's bomb I'm not so sure anymore.

I didn't expect anything from de Luna, honestly, so it was not a surprise for me. But Paulina Campos scored 52.7 in Mexico's selection camp, and that's counting a fall on the floor exercise. I'm not sure she's going to beat Dominici here, especially because the judges seem to be extra picky on bars, but she can definitely beat Alvarado. I expected Magistrati to actually score around what Dominici did, so now that the bar is set much lower than I anticipated, it's Mexico's quota to lose.

And the strict bars judges are at it again: all four of the Mexican girls had great routines but the scores are still quite low. At least they're consistently deducting everyone, so no bias here. But it's still weird.

And now they will suffer in beam, because of the Mexican woman big derriere genetic curse

Oh, Daniela Briceño and Paulina Campos will have a particular battle for the second quota. Anyway, it looks like Mexico will easily qualify here.

It looks like I celebrated too early. Paulina Campos now needs a great vault to qualify. She can still do it, but it will be close. Briceño also needs a great vault to reach Costa Rica.

With all respect to the costa rica girl but I can't believe Mexico with 4 girls can't beat a gymnast from a country with a quarter maybe of the funding/support of what our gymnast receive, not that they get A LOT but come on!

 

This time maybe was the easiest for our gymnast to get a second spot for the Olympis but looks like it wont happen
