Well, today if you wear the brazilian jersey, it's 90% guaranteed that you a Bolsonaro supporter, and nobody in their right mind would want that. Same with flags (until 2014, we used to decorate our house/street, but today it's the last thing I would do). Even CBF is doing a campaign (unsuccessful, I would say) saying that their apparel is for everybody, trying to unlink their products from Bolsonaro. I guess it's hard when your main player supports the president

Congrats to the winners and the host!

2 bronze medals for today! Btw, Rebeca now has world medals in AA, VT, UB and FX, missing only BB (her worst apparatus I think).

14.200 for Gadirova, in that final? It seems there really is home bonus...

During FX final, there was some other music playing in three moments of Rebeca's routine. I don't know if it was distracting to her but it was terrible. EDIT: Rebeca said it didn't affected her, as she already has the routine prepared in her mind and don't worry about outside factors.

Well, Rebeca just checked out after winning the AA title.

Seitz is so unlucky, always 4th or 5th in big competitions.

Yes, she lost almost 1 point compared to qualifications, and knowing that BB was next, I was nervous. Thankfully, she did alright in BB (even with a 7.5E) and amazing in Floor (probably her best ever with this routine).

Maurren Maggi, 2008 Olympic champion, is participating in the protests with Bolsonaro supporters against election results. If one day I rooted for this woman, I deeply regret it now.

Well, that explains it, I never watch the AA podium 'cause Brazil isn't there lol

I thought it was a nice moment to present the top 8 alongside the medalists. Is that common in AA competitions?

Rebeca

Agreed, but these results are embarrassing either way. Caio needs PH to have a chance to fight for a good result in AA and he couldn't score 12.000 today.

with a great chance of getting the third quota... only if they do a decent job on PH.

They need to train more

After 4 rotations, I think has guaranteed a quota, and probably too (unless something disastrous happens). is looking good for third after a bad start in PH.

The only team to do a good job on pommel horse so far, even counted a 11.000 (although they will recover in the next apparatus).

PH is today's BB, most teams doing terrible.

This reminds me of the Vault scandal at the 2000 Olympics, but of course that was much more serious. Here, I just think most gymnasts are having a terrible competition in balance beam - aside from Ou Yushan, but I don't wanna jinx her...

O pior para mim foi a Ingrid, pois acho que nunca mais terá uma oportunidade tão boa.

Bolso finally did a speech... a 2-minute speech. Didn't mentioned Lula, thanked his voters and briefly critized the left-wing in Brazil. He plans to travel by the end of the year and won't be present at Lula's inauguration (which would be the first president to do so since the end of military dictatorship 37 years ago).

Turns out that Flávia managed to be more unlucky than Rebeca at the end...

Great 4th place (best ever) for Brazil despite having an athlete that really isn't world level. @thiago_simoes will Flávia compete in AA?

is coming for that third spot...
