Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you... Aly Raisman.Sure, those of you out there who are gymnastics aficionados have been aware of Raisman for a while. But the general public has been fed a steady diet of interviews with stars Gabby Douglas and Jordyn Wieber, who were earlier anointed as the faces of Team USA.
However, it's Raisman who will join Douglas in the Olympic all-around finals. The 18-year-old Massachusetts native leads all individual gymnasts in all-around scoring after three subdivisions.
 
China (Yao Jinnan) off the beam...and another major wobble.

EDIT: 12.833

EDIT: 44.432 for China on beam

Sui Lu hit really well and apparently Deng did as well. They didn't show Afan's floor! I'm aghast.
 
Russia is looking great on floor.

Canads finished in fourth as a team. I am so hoping they made TF, it is the first time in many years that they actually have a team there.
 
Komova...nice amanar...15.633
 
Chusovitina is awesome just for being at her 6th O's!

It is so late here and I have to work tomorrow. :( I'm going to have to download the quals and watch the rest tomorrow.

I feel so bad for Jordan but did you guys see Aly's reaction when she found out she made it to AA finals? That was really adorable. She obviously wasn't really expecting to make it to the AA.

Jordan might not qualify for anything at all. She looks absolutely gutted. Poor thing.
 
Viktoria Komova looks so different with her hair lighter and no bangs. She doesn't look so moody.
 
China had a rough time on floor...I liked Yao Jinnan trying to recover from her fall with a back extension! But it's still a fall. They have very interesting choreo...

Mustafina hit a really nice DTY on vault for a score in the low 15s. Thank goodness..
 
Russia moving up after two events
 
Nice bars by Musta...15.7...second place so far on bars
 
Huge double double by Komova...Russia looks good on bars!

EDIT: 15.833
 
Yao ate mat on her DTY. She's also favoring that leg.
They played her fall about twenty billion times. Whyyyyyy?
 
China going face first on vault...I think they have replayed it in super slo-mo like 20x now.
 
TEAM FINALS!!! At least she'll have a team gold to hang on her wall. crosses fingers

That's absolutely true. I hope she can pull it together for team finals and get past her disappointment. A team medal is no small accomplishment.

And now I'm off to bed. Stupid time zone. It is nearly 1am here. Happy viewing all!
