What was interesting was that every one of her beam routines at these games had hesitancy to them… and then she wins the world beam title just a year later with a smooth as silk performance. Shows how this event can be variable.
Diva? No, definitely not. A fierce, focused and determined athlete who accomplished greatness? Absolutely. Diva was Svetlana khorkina who had a very nasty attitude towards so many others and was very disrespectful. Aliya was always kind and courteous to those she competed with.
what was her intended d score had she connected all those elements together? the onodi to aerial walkover to bhso to back tuck, as well as the switch ½ to split jump to sissone
I think she only did the back tuck I order to have an acro series, if she had connected the onodi to the front aerial and/or the front aerial to the back handspring she probably wouldn't have gone for the back tuck
No, as a matter of fact she was not. So typical of you self righteous, self entitled and self proclaimed “experts” on judging. Get off your lazy duff and go become an official before making selfish statements like that.
@@lucia60001Gabby actually HIT EVERY ROUTINE- which is why she won gold. Unless you’re a certified professional gymnastics judge, you’re in no position to degrade or demean those who are. Grow up.
