Summary

Here's how to ask questions live.

A major FIG "administrative error" puts multiple gymnasts' Olympic qualifying spots into question. We will explain how the vault replacement debacle could ripple down to several countries.
BATTLE BARS: the highest SV in the world Kaliya Nemour vs. Shilese Jones, Qiu Qiuyan and everyone else who doesn't even come close to Nemour's 6.9 D score hoping for medal, including Simone Biles.
VAULT: Simone Biles and her giant yurchenko double pike vs. Andrade, ~~maybe Gadirova w/the Chengs~~ (has been replaced by Csenge Maria Backay). Plus Club Handspring Rudi - Yeo Seojeong, Alexa Moreno, Coline Devillard.
Pommel Horse: Rhys McClenaghan vs Lee Chih-Kai vs. Ahmad Abu Al Soud vs. Harutyun Merdinyan for ONE Olympic spot!
Rings: Eleftherios Petrounias vs Nikita Simonov vs. Vinzenz Hoeck vs. Artur Avetisyan vs Vahagn Davtyan for ONE Olympic spot! and Men's floor.

Here’s how our event coverage works:

1. We give everyone the main headlines and latest news!

2. We continue our conversation exclusively with our Club members because they sustain our work and travel year around.

3. Want to hear rest of it and all the years of bonus content and interviews? All you have to do is Join the Club.
