The commentators for this… wow. It was so refreshing to hear two people so passionate and knowledgeable about gymnastics, and so positive about every single gymnast. They really were cheering for everyone’s triumphs and it was so nice!
Indeed. I do not like the commentators in the U.S. - they spend time pointing out faults on movements they’ve never done and could never do. Every female commentator in particular- i turn the volume off.
That was NOT how I expected the podium to look and I’m certainly not complaining!! So cool to see two countries who have not ever really factored into the team medals take hardware home. Bodes well for an epic battle in Paris!
Same, I'm so happy for them all! My thoughts, I do feel for the Chinese gymnats, such an epic fall from grace (and the podiums) but for some reason the coaches refuse to push vault difficulty. That said, I am happy to see countries on the podium besides Russia and China lol.
Is it weird that I cried while watching Simone’s performance? I’m so happy to see her back performing so wonderfully on the world stage, especially after a mental health break and a hiatus. She’s done herself proud.
I was there IRL and I was crying too. I'm from Antwerp and started watching & following Simone's career in 2013, and seeing it come full circle in real life was incredible
Shilese is both graceful and powerful, a rare combination. And it is wonderful to see Simone compete again and look to confident in her skill. Congratulations, girls!
You have to remember that this was the first time Simone was competing internationally under the NEW CODE and she also was doing a much downgraded (skill wise) floor routine so she had no idea how well it was going to score.
Ok….I’m convinced that Simone is a hybrid. Part alien, part human…..or superwoman with every other skill that other superhero’s have. I’m so blown away at such beauty and athleticism. Wow. Great job, Simone…and to the American team!
that's Cecile Laundi (my spelling of her last name is most likely incorrect lol)! Melanie has been training at her and her husband Laurent's gym for the past 1-2 years - where Simone Biles, Jordan Chiles, and many others train too. Melanie may compete for France, but she's one of Cecile's gymnasts too 💖
From then to the end is my Favorite 10 minutes of gymnastics like, ever. Melanie had me tearing up, cried by the time the crowd got involved in Simone’s floor ♥️
and i didn't realize ididn't say south america! what a delight to see simone again! my wishes for this happened with her, she is a beautiful person inside and out, prayers for suni!
yes! all three teams! south yes, you are beautiful, france yes and of course the USA and simone being there makes feel incredibly happy! God bless all the gymnasts in the world and coaches! blessings!
So touching! Aside from that moment, what I loved was the different times Cecile and Laurent were taking turns cheering her on while the other was keeping an eye out for what US was doing on floor. Also, I loved that one of the coaches from the French team went across (more like mid-way) and hugged Cecile afterwards, I suppose for the work she had put in with Melanie that translated to such a routine at such an important moment in time. Got to say that this team final was the best I have witnessed in a looong time.
This proves that if we take care of ourselves and stay drug free we can continue to compete at a World Class level into our 30s! It does my heart good to have lived to see Women athletes compete while living normal lives, just like their male counterparts have always done. Getting married, having children was unheard of when I was young in the 60s and 70s.
Team China needs to do something about those vaults. They have to feel a bit embarrassed dropping from second to out of medal contention in one rotation.
@@angela1504 it's so weird that a country with such a huge talent pool and financial funding for gymnastics, which happens to be the country that gave us Cheng Fei can't produce a half decent vaulter for their team.
@@jodavitow i wonder if it's because they purposely look for these extremely tiny, underpowered girls for gymnastics. there's a range of body types in china. i don't know why they don't include girls with stronger builds in their pool of talent.
Ok, another comment...the commentator recognizing "This sport has changed! The longevity...." 2023 World's bringing the WOMEN back to women's gymnastics!
They didn't, she's not over scored. Read the code, understand the code and spend as many hours studying and reviewing it as those judges do, then review this comment. The code is incredibly complex. Each panel has 9+1 judge off all different nationalities, none of them would favour a gymnast e detriment of their own country. They're also being evaluated and if they mess up they get called in and might get their brevets revoked or being stopped from judging internationally. The judges are under evaluation during the whole competition too.
@@aboutnol many people are saying that yet the majority of those people have never bothered to open and read the code. Jessica didn't make the code. If she's benefiting from it, it's because she and her technical team have extensive knowledge of the code and know how to use it in their favour. She's not being over scored, she has nearly perfect form in the air, does just enough elements so that she's not getting extra penalties for no reason and has great artistry, her only common faults are with the landings. Not everyone likes the same style, I don't personally enjoy her style, I much prefer Eythora's or even Ondine's for that matter, but that doesn't make Jessica a bad performer. If everyone was to enjoy hip hop, ballet would cease to exist. Also I'm truly curious, what exactly in the code do you believe she's benefiting from?
Actually this routine for sure was better than the one in qualification, ofc that wolf turn was messy, but her shape in the air improved so much and she landed very well too
@@verareis6806 I don't really understand. English in not my native language. I don't think the judges prefer her. I just think in the previous codes it was more balanced and she wouldn't get scores that looked high for no reason. If ballet have rules and then the rules change and they become ballet ish so much that you can't call it ballet anymore so... Do you understand what I'm saying? I don't think gadirova benefiting from this I think the code changed a lot and its not look the same.
Before the last rotation the Chinese were just 1,764 behind the top, and I started to be worried for the US women but then I remembered that vault was coming 💀😂
They didn’t give it to her and everytime she does it, it can give her huge deductions which is something she maybe can't risk for the AA and floor final, her last chances
@@aguti7920 they didn't give it to her because it didn't count. She lowered the ankle before she finished the 3rd turn. I've seen videos of her doing it and she always does it perfectly balanced and usually over rotates even but she messed up this time, lowered the ankle, lost balance and lowered the free leg too soon too...
@@verareis6806 yeah, they probably gave it a triple turn, so only a C and maybe deduction her heavily cause she fell out of it and even tho Shilese does it well (she only did it once) but international judges maybe wouldn't have given that cause the leg is supposed to be above horizontal the whole time
@verareis6806 exactly but was worth the shot for maximizing points. Sucks but she keeps improving and becoming more consistent. I'm proud of her either way.
In hindsight it might seem the thing that should have happen but Leanne was on this team for this said reason and because she is expected to be consistent across all four apparatuses.
Jessica Gaderova’s padded AF E score 😮 an open mouth just like during tumbling passes with her bent arms handsprings with flexed feet in tuck positions stuck landing or not her chest was .05 worth bent over and that goes for the other passes as well with bent arms plus the first foot of every jump or leap was flexed as well and her E score was what .1 or .2 lower than Simone’s?!! Gtfoh judges. We’re not purposely blind and if we can see it so can they. It’s clearly unfair to ignore her errors but mark everyone else for the same errors. So over scored but I guess we’re supposed to ignore are lying eyes. 🙄 👀 🚫🙈
They've competed really courageously against the pressure of being under the same group with team USA last night. I admire their marale though, exhibiting their exuberant willingness of facing challenges. It must mean a lot to the girls.@@aguti7920
@@verareis6806 I think the range for a low chest landing may be .3-.5 but there’s definitely a deduction for not landing upright in the body. They don’t want them bent at the waist. It’s the same on vault. On that your chest had to be at table height.
The commentators for this… wow. It was so refreshing to hear two people so passionate and knowledgeable about gymnastics, and so positive about every single gymnast. They really were cheering for everyone’s triumphs and it was so nice!
And pronouncing all names properly or at least tries to.
Olly goes around and asks every gymnast how to say their name, apparently. That's awesome. @@TJ-bd5iq

That beam routine of Melanie. Girl that was fire. The mount 13:22 and the dismount 14:46 ugh stuck cold
so much emotion and pressure at the end and she pulled out the routine of all routines. So glad for her and the French team!
Shilese is both graceful and powerful, a rare combination. And it is wonderful to see Simone compete again and look to confident in her skill. Congratulations, girls!
Very well done USA, Simone was mind blowing., also well done to Brazil and France.
Simone is AWESOME! ❤❤💯Congratulations team USA! 🇺🇸 🏅🙌🏽🙌🏽
love the look on Simone's face when she saw her score - its the only time ive ever seen her look shocked at one of her scores! :D

Super super exciting for the French to be coming up nicely before they have a hometown Olympics. I hope they keep on track

Why are you talk like that about Simone if you are from her team if she’s not there, you will never win shame on you
I loved it as well but also loved Simone's floor routine it was a 10/10 performance.

The gymnasts just don’t have the power, they need to get stronger. Especially since their technique is beautiful.
Especially considering one of the greatest vaulters is a Chinese athlete.

C’est vraiment magnifique !!!! Bravo 👍
I remember Flavia from Rio. It said she was 4’5” (shorter than SIMONE). I think that’s her😄😄♥️
Simome Biles is a goddess in gymnastics. I love to see her tumbling. Hope to se her back at Paris. She brings joy yo the whole world. ❤
Who are these commentators? Where can I watch this in it's entirety? I will pay to hear their perspective on the competition.
Remarkable.

Gadirova fell out of that wolf turn and should be deducted as a fall but the current rules don’t allow for that
