Konnor has some young Simone energy - tiny, really springy, quick, agile and a great performer. She has loads of potential and enough time ahead in her career, I really hope she can find a way to fight through her mental battles 💛
I am glad that the American gymnastic women's team trained before hand to compete globally. If the passion is resonating in their performance, it would be rewarded as well as the technical skills: if the confidence of the competitors, while making the skills seem effortless and easy, the score will reflect it. Their support system will help each competitor to deal with stress, I recommend that if everyone believe in Jesus Christ and pray, it will help each competitor to deal with one's stress and weaknesses.
I really hope Leanne becomes a fierce competitor. Her gymnastics are just so beautiful. I’d love to see her name as a medal contender at the next Olympics!
I actually think Kayla has a good chance to keep the USA AA streak alive because she has been very consistent and with Rebeca and Mai out and Gelya probably being exhausted and having trouble with TaiShan if she's consistent she will definitely make it onto the podium.
What ! Rebeca is out ? Why ?
@@oscarvillarreal4725 apparently she won’t compete on floor. She has had a big year and considering she tore her ACL multiple times they might want to keep her healthy.
NOOO I WANTED REBECA TO WIN SO BAD
Mai isn’t doing all around?!?!!?!? This was her last chance to come away with an all around medal since she is retiring after. Well I guess this is a good chance for the USA girls.
@@d00f60 Mai has an ankle injury I think but she is doing floor.
if you’d said to me five years ago that team USA would’ve looked like this i would never have believed you
Those taishan floors! I hope konnor stays safe, her landings made my stomach turn.
i think you mean emjae
@@tumbling4568 totally meant emjae, thank you!
*emjae
Not gonna lie I almost choked when I saw Konnor stick the chuso
that floor looks hard as a rock!
Leane’s bars are so clean. It’s nice to watch
she had many mistakes in that routine. Form issues as well.
Leanne’s floor looks great! Hoping for a really competitive worlds, it’s going to be interesting.
me too! I hope she goes to final!
If Leanne gets her chest up on the landing on the silivas she can possibly beat Angelina on floor finals
praying that konnor secretly has the mustafina competitive edge... rough podium trainings but hits when it counts
Nah...it looks like nerves are worse since joining Woga. Why choose violence in choosing Luikin when you know your daughter has performance anxiety? He was a bad choice. I would have gone with Raisman coach or Kayla Ross coach. People who can calm the nerves or teach you how to stick under pressure
Her parents choosing WOGA is irresponsible
She's giving Rebeca Bross energy hopefully she doesn't the WOGA injuries
@@quedotelancine1685 ali's coach would have been a great choice!
Konnor imho is the opposite, I think she crumbles under pressure instead of thrives. I highly doubt she’s going to make it through that beam routine without a fall or two. Her floor is another story altogether . I wish she would learn to not look down at the floor and look like she’s counting things out in her head. I’m glad we have Leanne and to a lesser extent Kayla on this worlds team to show that there still are some US gymnasts who can dance or show personality on floor.
Wow I love how confident Kayla looks! :)
I keep seeing people say that Wong will most likely get silver for the all-around and no mentions of Kayla who is the most consistent out of all of them.
She’s gonna give everyone a run for their money.
Where do you see this being said? All I keep hearing is Kayla is the best bet.
@@enchantedella6495 in this comment section lol
@@kiaram8688 I didn't read most of this place but if it makes you feel better, everyone else thinks Kayla looks better
I’ve loved kayla ever since junior worlds I knew there was something special in her I really see her being a big star in the future
@@dudubcjkxkd What is special about her? She has no standout event, she is a flatline gymnast.
It’ll be so interesting to see the fresh talent competing now and in the future!
I watched a gymnastics mini documentary that featured Konnor. It talked about her gymnastics, life, and switching gyms. When she does gymnastics, it's like she's going with the flow and her heart isn't in it or her mind is elsewhere.
Her parents seemed wonderful and super supportive, but I can’t help feeling that this is more their dream for their children, than Konnor’s. Especially seeing how her brother does very competitive sports and competition and talent seem to be everything their life revolves around. I definitely thinks she wants it, but there’s a difference with her and the Simone Biles and Chellsie Memmels out there, where the drive comes from them and within.
All these comments bashing USA, yet LeAnn and Kayla were 1&2 after their subdivisions divisions. Anyone want to mention Chinas meltdown? That this is not USA's best of the best. And the E scores? Spoke for themselves
Oh my gosh, wow, Leanne's vault got so much better!
Sadly team USA’s E scores are gonna get hammered again
This is not sad. It's just fair.
@@emanuelrosendo2077 it’s UNfair
It's only fair after two Olympic cycles where his grades were inflated in every international event, don't you think?
@@julianalvarezlopera6576 by “his”, you mean Tom Foster, right?
@@EmilyS1234 when russia, china, italy, germany, australia, japan, france, brazil and every country ever was getting underscored you stayed silent. Bias much?
I really like those WC because it's a big chance for young gymnasts to prove they can perform too! I'm glad to see that big countries like USA sent very young gymnasts to gave them experience! It's a good point for those athletes! I hope they will performed well! I like all of them 😊🙏
I’m going to be honest here. I don’t think that the team is not that strong as it use to be. I think it’s falling apart
It sure is.
I agree that the US was amazing during 96, and 2000 era they are one of the best teams In gymnastics. But I do think that these couple years are going to be hard since Simone isn’t back and she can lead the team to victory. Yes I do think that Konner is a very talented gymnast. She just needs to be consistent. If the US hits hard and well then they might have a shot at the silver or maybe a gold
@@landonshields7493 I agree. Most of the powerhouse gymnasts are busy doing other things atm like Simone as you mentioned and suni. They won't always be available to compete so I really wanna have hope that the next generation can still be just as good. I'm a little worried for worlds if I'm being honest (kayla seems to be the most consistent atm. Leanne is great too but she had a LOT of form errors on bars and idk the other two gymnast well. They have the difficulty on floor but I'm worried about consistency, especially since the floors are harder than the ones I'm Tokyo). Fingers crossed regardless!
I wouldn't mind seeing Wong with silver in AA and floor and maybe DiCello with the bronze. Without Murakami and Rebeca in the individual final, Melnikova will have an easy time taking gold and ending the US dynasty.
Konnor could cause surprises in the beam final if she qualifies, as could Vorona, and it would not be unusual for either of the two to win the title in the event that the Chinese
Honestly, minaeva could be the dark bourse for bar finals like Anastasia illyankova was at Tokyo and walk away with a medal. I wouldn’t be shocked, she has the BEST ezhova in the world and you can’t prove me otherwise
Is Wong doing AA tho? She wasnt doing Beam here
@@joelrivera8098 I’m pretty sure she is. She is the only girl, other than Kayla dicello, that is ready on all events
@@d00f60 Honestly I feel like Konnor is ready on Vault, but Idk ab the two events she did here…
Like does Tom think his job is just to take photos and videos of the gymnasts and their routines? ...the conditioning and routine composition (through little to no fault on the gymnasts' part) leave a lot to be desired and Tom seems disinterested in addressing these glaring issues.
he also writes posts on facebook. lol. he needs to go. i think they are in general, to afraid of raising the bar and be exigent
yeah tom giving me corporate chad vibes. he doesn't do the job and get some credit when the women (gymnasts) does well.
Don’t judge what you know nothing about.
It seems Kayla will do very well :)
ROUGH! Wishing these young ladies all of the success. However, the glaring issues are rooted in E scores and composition. As the "high performance coordinator" the onus is on Tom to discuss with coaches issues he's seeing with both and be adamant about some changes. Similar to Tom, of the 90s, he seems to be the man without the eye and a plan that works. The taishan floor wont be the blame for the hammering that is likely. Top that off with the fact that Morale, focus and a spark appears somewhat low for the exception of one gal. So much potential yet with freckles leadership
Very well said. I would add that the E score issues, overall aesthetic, presentation, technique, and execution issues, don't just come down to Tom having discussions with the coaches, etc. - AFAIK Liukin and his team are coaching McClain now, and then you have coaches like Kelli Hill and Armine Barutyan-Fong who have coached athletes in the past that have shown lovely presentation, execution, etc. (Elise Ray, Courtney McCool, et al.) - These three coaches alone, should have the wherewithal to see that the work that they are producing is substandard. Anyone who says that these athletes are inexperienced, and thus should get a pass on their E scores needs to sit this one out. - The athletes themselves are lovely, amazing, talented, brave, and dedicated. The results of what we're seeing indeed lie at the feet of the coaches and coaching staff. The bar has been lowered and needs to be raised again.
@@CAnative64 you read my mind
@@CAnative64 oh yes I absolutely agree with that. I was just a bit long winded and failed to also call out these VERY experienced coaches who know what the heck to fix. I agree 1000%!
Could not agree more, Tom is not the man for this job. I keep asking what in his coaching career qualified him for this position? I hoped to be proven wrong but he is guiding the US program down hill.
The guys were rough as well. They usually are after the Olympics because of upgrades.
The girls look tired. As if they are always fighting for the next breath. Or is it just my impression?
The equipment is quite firm there and also organising there is hot mess (Angelina described some stuff in her Insta).
tom doesn't do conditioning with them
They also had only one day to recover from jet lag which was rough for many of the gymnasts
Tired? They just started their career 😭
Why aren't you putting up the Women's Uneven Bars final from Tokyo?
Well, congrats for you, now that Rebeca and Murakami are out AA, the title probably is between USA and Melnikova.
Why ? I don’t understand what happened?
@@SH-co8de Rebeca announced minutes ago she won't perform on FX, in short, to prevent an injury, aiming next year competitions, because of the load of training required to keep her current program.
I think only Wong has a small chance of fighting Melnikova for the title.
@@julianalvarezlopera6576 and Kayla because she’s been consistent ever since world selection camp
Why is Murakami out of the AA? :(
I've traveled to and from Asia during the pandemic. I wanted to knock out for a week afterwards, and here we have athletes performing intense and rigorous routines in a competition only days after. They're allowed to be tired. Hopefully they can shake it off once the actual competition starts.
Oh my goodness, Kayla could so do an amanar on vault.
Team Italy please!!
Taishan Floor…. Oh lord im worried lol
Hope Leanne and Kayla do well! Scared for the others...
I wouldn’t say I’m scared for Konnor. With all her difficulty, she could put her hand on the beam once and still qualify to beam finals
But I don’t really see emjae making any finals
I'm scared for Konnor. I hope she doesn't have a terrible day in quals and it ruin her confidence even more
@@d00f60 I’m scared because they’re all clearly going for the AA. EmJae and Konnor clearly aren’t ready for floor
wohhhh amazing gymnast i never seen before in she is my bet in olympics 2024 in france
oh no the taishan floor 😬
That floor us awful. I hope no one gets hurt
Also not having an American in the vault final is just going to feel weird. We've had one MEDAL in every worlds and Olympics since 2009 apart from 2015... and an American in the top 4 every worlds and Olympics since 2005. The US has medaled in vault in 11 of the last 13 world championships. Oops
Biles won a bronze in 2015 on vault!
Please upload Team China, please!!
then go to chinese fan page, this is olympics.
@@yxzh343 why go to China fan page this is Olympics as you stated not USA fanpage. Bit confused international olympic should cover all countries not just one what do you mean
@@dudubcjkxkd yes since its olympics it must be professional to include only the best content like team usa podium training and the competitions that usa or russia have won.
@@yxzh343 um.. still confused team China is very good and when being requested by fans it means it’s clearly something that many viewers want to see.
@@yxzh343 Your Racism is disgusting
Looking great. I think our next group of ladies coming up will continue on the American lead in gymnastics over the last 15 yrs.
Kayla for the AA. Keep the USA girls on top!
So now the International Olympic Committee serves one specific country? Nice to know...
Wrong. The FIG hosts the world championships.
@N L do you have problems or what? Didn't you realise this is the IOC channel for gymnastics?
@N L yes, looks like you surely have problems
Did Valerie Liukin leave Brazil, is he back coaching the American girls again?
He's Konnor's coach.
@@dynasty0019 Oh I didn’t realize, she’s from West Virginia.
I love seeing how far Konnor has come since the run up to deciding not to do Olympic Trials. Her style reminds me of Moceanu.
Team Russia please!!!
I see team Russia win gold and USA bronze
When Japan agreed to host these events, did they secretly agree to build the ugliest arenas ever?
"hey, guys, you know all centuries of beautiful art, design and architecture we have? Let's not use any of that as inspiration! Instead, here's my 2 years finger paintings. Get inspired"
Wow, Queen was a populair choice of music! Love Innuendo, always thought it would make perfect floor music. Konnor seemed to struggle though…
Stay strong, Team USA 🇺🇸 Women's Artistic Gymnastics World Champions 2021.
From these vids, can we glean who is doing AA and what events the specialists are doing? Only 3 per country per event at these Championships.
3 per country?? Why??
@@notafrog4967 not a clue...makes no sense.
How about other countries team? I want to see the Russia.
Rebeca will not compete on floor 😩
Andrade?
@@jujuba9055 sim
vai sim
@@heitor3705 nao vai. Já é oficial.
@@andersonmonteiro4476 onde vocês viram isso? não é possível que ela com uma rotina tão bonita vai deixar de competir
Is this a new USA team?
A lot of our ladies are on Simone’s tour right now. Only 5 tried out for this worlds.
@@kaylalorentz3020 *6
@@kaylalorentz3020 only 6? Dang I thought there would be so many more.
@@kaylalorentz3020 the ones that aren't on tour are busy doing something else like college or like with suni, dancing with the stars
Unless you have complete mastery of those wolf turns, it's probably not worth doing them. Every time you maintain balance by moving the arms and hands, it's a deduction. I think Simone got hit with almost a point in deductions at the BB event finals in Tokyo because of this.
Wolf turns can only get around a maximum of .5 deductions if the gymnast doesn't fall. Simone probably lost .1. She definitely didn't get almost a point.
Kayla reminds me of Aly for some reason
Is no one showing the qualification rounds?
@Or Grimey, as he liked to be called yes, but I don't see that anyone is scheduled to show the qualification rounds, just finals.
italy pleasee
Dang these lil Simone biles about to take all her spots if they can control all that power!!! They all have the same problem she does, so much power! It shows in the landings
Will post from other teams too, or just from your darlings.🤮🤮
US very formidable
I will take less medals any day for there mental and emotional health. Good job!
Konnor needs to drop the wolf turns in her floor. I know it's crucial to her D score, but she barely got around ONCE before actually putting her hands down
She needs to put on one of those turning shoe things. Kayla had one on floor
The floor is apparently really bad for spins as the fabric cover is a bit loose or something so lots of people are struggling with spins. Gelya has talked about it on insta
Idk how I feel about the orange
Fr
A lot of built in deductions everywhere
I don’t believe the USA team will medal on these worlds but I have hope. I see Russia as the top competitors Melnikova and urzova the strongest and 2 new seniors they see very strong
Urazova isn't due to do AA though, nor are murakami or Rebecca so other than gelya as the big favourite the podium is pretty open for AA medals. Floor has probably 1 medal up for grabs, maybe 2, depending how murakami manages her ankle injury. I think space on the podiums will be quite dependant on how China fairs but they only have 1 gymnast in the AA as well.
The 2 new seniors are good but mineava (doing AA) hasn't hit scores like you'd typically see on the AA podium. Apparently she's strongest on bars and has a good floor but shes also struggling with the equipment.
I thought you can't do two wolf turns in a routine anymore?
the new cop isn’t in effect till next year
@@passionfruittea9698 I wish they could take it out now honestly. I hate seeing back to back wolf turns and it's only done for the difficulty value
❤️
As atletas americana precisam melhorar a execução
Who are gonna represent Team USA This year?
Kayla DiCello, Leanne Wong, eMjae Frazier, and Konnor McClain
@@dynasty0019 what a team! However, maybe I am not aware of the details, but why didn’t participate Suni, Simone or anyone from the olympics?
@@markpurda Suni's on Dancing with the Stars while Simone and the rest are on a cross-country tour.
@@dynasty0019 that’s correct. I know I know. But I thought a world championship is more important 😅 anyway hope team US is gonna ace the floor !
@@markpurda most gymnasts take a break after the Olympics as it takes such a huge toll, which is why there typically isn't a worlds the same year and even the year filling the Olympics a lot of the big competitors take time off (like Simone did last quad). 1 worlds isn't worth burnout or risking injuries/not giving them time to heal in the big picture.
Plus a lot of them just want to actually have some fun and they've earnt it! Also worth considering that tour is providing income, as will dancing with the stars, whereas worlds doesnt and they can't do both.
Plus there are so many of the top competitors missing from this worlds that others deprioritised it too.
I think the team should be Kayla, Leanne, Konnor and have Emjae as the alternate
Flexibility, execution, artistry and originality.....totally non existent here.
Leanne Wong has artistry and flexibility. She usually has good execution as well.
👍
Why are there judges at podium training? Do they get scores at podium training?
It is a possibility for the judges to get acquainted with the routines
@@jojo-wy7yq what does that mean
Judges are always at Podium training. No reason given.
@@d00f60 It think it means that the judges can write squiggles to know what to expect in the events and will be more able to focus on scoring.
@@JoMomma write squiggles 😂🤣
Uneven bars please
USA does not look clean
Just give the girls time
So...no one from the Olympics team couldn't be here? I would think that you'd want to finish your competitive season by doing the world's! Well, we'll hold our collective breath. With the exceptional break out performance here/there, the USA will not come out on top this time around. Sunni Lee could've cemented her place in history by performing here, but I guess doing a show or collegiate gymnastics took precedence over this. This would've taken what - 2 weeks out of their schedules, to do? OK.....
taishan floors :/
can u tell me what's wrong with the floor, please? I see comments about it here and there
@@JoaoZamae the floor that they’re competing on is really hard which means it’ll be a lot more pressure on their bodies and make gymnast more prone to injury. The US is also already struggling with execution and the hard floor is definitely playing a part.
They did know way ahead that this floor was there...so prepare for it
@@jaydenwashington1047 Rebeca Andrade probably just stepped on the floor and realized she wasn’t doing all around from that moment
@@jojo-wy7yq how can you prepare to deal with a concrete floor, the floor shouldn't be allowed since it is so hard
You all shall shut up. This is the C Team.
Usa is nothing wiithout biles and lee
Why suni Lee not take this?
1) she’s in college
2) she’s doing dancing with the stars currently
3) the girl wants a break
Finally, no Simone. Refreshing.
