I just watched the video of Ashton's bars, I felt for her! You could tell how upset she was

Appeared to be a combination of pain and emotion...it’s no secret she’s been battling a shoulder injury since Classic and recently injured her knee. It was pretty tough to watch though...I hope she’s okay.

Is there anyone at worlds who is not injured or rehabbing? So many potential medal winners out of action
Iordache (Achilles)
Smith (ankle - McClusker also injured)
Paseka (chronic back problems)
Ilyankova (back - almost left at home)
Melnikova (ankle)
Tinkler (ankle surgery 7 weeks ago - the British Downie sisters are also rehabbing surgeries)

Probably a lot of others

Currently watching while making Moussaka, way to spend your sunday evening I guess

It's the first time I am free (or awake) to watch anything of this years worlds. I have been reading along a bit though, seems that if nothing else this competition at least hasn't been boring...

Hurd wins silver!!

 

[duyetanh]

Wow! She must be over the moon. What a worlds she had.

 

[MickeyDGym]

Awesome for Morgan! It went from she is going to Worlds for experience and not expecting to medal to taking home two medals. Great job!

 

[ginnymac]

Wow! Jade just did a great routine, too!

Maybe not. The code has changed a lot since then. Scores will always be at least 0.5 lower, because of the SR missing (used to be 5, now 4) and really less CV given...

And there's been changes to how things are scored too so the scores aren't as high anymore, not necessarily that the girls aren't as good.

 

[3rd_time_around]

Ferrari just went down. It reminded me of when Courtney Kupets went down with an achillies rupture on her last pass her junior year. So sad.

 

[CoachMeg]

Ouch. That looked like it hurt. So sad for Ferrari

 

[3rd_time_around]

Wow! Jade just did a great routine, too!

And I thought she was much cleaner than the gymnast from Japan (can't remember her name), but I think she was a little stiff. She did a beautiful routine!
