Team finals lineup?

Excited to hear Laurie is competing three events! I will say that her vault has improved a lot lately, she really nailed it in qualifying. Wonder if she will stick it out after the olympics for a while and potentially compete an amanar one day?

Being an Olympic alternate is a very prestigious thing.

I was surprised to see that Gaby will only compete bars.

For the person above who asked, the U.S. will start on vault according to the rotation schedule I saw posted.

I know in earlier threads a while back there was speculation Simone might sit an event out in team final to rest, which does make sense.

So who can help me understand the reasoning as to not to give her a bit of a rest for all her upcoming events?
