OMG Whittenburg is in!!

[profmom]

Of course, I am very sorry for the circumstances -- the men's AA lost two guys from qualifications. But now Donnell Whittenburg will get his shot today. I'd be SOOO happy if he nails his pommel horse set!

Who had to drop out and why? Hope they are OK.

Excited for Donnell...

How ironic that it's a guy from Belarus... (At least according to FIG's Twitter!)

Who's watching? I'm seeing parts, as I'm doing other things. Seems though that Danell is not having a good day and so far Whittenberg is having a great day. Pommel is his last event though, so we'll see.

Sadly, so far, Donnell fell onto his rear on his vault landing (though his rings were awesome). And Danell fell on the pommel and put his hands down on a floor tumbling pass.

But Donnell was throwing a very difficult 6.4 D vault(probably the most difficult being thrown by any of the AA's), so the fall won't cost him too much. Danell on the other hand...
