Some exciting news to share again on the Chinese Team. After the Internal Test Event conducted, a few of the team members were supposedly selected. Remember, this is all from what I have read, but a truly wonderful gymnastics source…
Competing on the Olympic team
Cheng Fei
Jiang Yuyuan
He Kexin
Yang Yilin
For the last two spots [...]
Ok. This information was received through message boards and usually this stuff is right in my experience. So here is what was received in a recent Internal Chinese event…
Jiang Yuyuan is competing the Amanar. On day 2 she received a 15.700. She placed 2nd on floor. She had some [...]
The headline is all I really want to write about it.
They lost out on 3rd by a half tenth.
The Gator Gymnastics team competed today at the NCAA National Prelims. They tied for third with Standford, both teams earning 196.900. Georgia is looking for their fourth consecutive team title and used the home court advantage to qualify first with a 197.625. In second place Utah scored a 196.950, just a half [...]
So I have been thinking heavily about the gaps that the defending world champion team is having for the Olympics. I have been sorting out who should fill in the gaps….
First we have our locks. (Please keep in mind when I talk about locks I am not considering the fact that injuries could happen.) Shawn [...]
This entry is my opinion on who outside of the USA will be at the Olympics.

Li Shanshan has a 7.5 A-score on beam! Highest again! Some wobbles in qualifications though, ended up with a 16.00 and still in [...]
So when I feel like it I will make a ‘Who Will Be (add event, team, etc. here) in Beijing ‘ I will do different countries and do updates as well.
Well will start of course with USA Team
Virtual Locks
1. Shawn Johnson – Well, you don’t go to the Olympics without the All-Around World [...]
It has been a few days since the Europeans ended, and I am not going to cough up all the results, again just some important notes (from my own opinion of course!) that focus on the tie of all meets to Beijing
Romanians win. Yaaaay for them. They haven’t won gold as a [...]
Qualifications of the European Championships are completed. I am excitedly awaiting videos to start pouring out of Youtube. Here is what I have noticed thus far by looking at the numbers and messageboards.
2. Romania’s Sandra Izbasa scored a freaking 15.700 on floor! Other than Cheng Fei’s 15.875 in 2006 event finals, [...]
