To everyone saying she's not "artistic" enough: you do realize men's "artistic" gymnastics has floor too (the one apparatus where everyone complains about artistry) and they don't have any music or dance. Artistic gymnastics is not an art show. It is a sport, it just has a little more creation freedom than other sports. What matters is the skills first, artistry second. This is why ballet is not an Olympic sport.
I felt bad for her on the balance beam. She's so much better than that. She seriously had to be exhausted. If it were her first even she would of murdered it no problem, sure gold
I'm only 12 and don't know much about gymnastics or the Olympics or anything. I don't even do gymnastics myself. It's always whatever to me when I see people do all these tricks. But when she landed, I was like wow. That is absolutely incredible.
You know Simone was there when Ohashi won worlds. She peaked at the right time. When the universe conspires to bring the world at your feet, things effortlessly fall into place.
so, she's short she has an advantage, she's tall it's something else...it's never enough..like the average person can do this even with practice. She works hard at it...I'm pretty sure all those years of hard work makes it look effortless. You deserve your medals...congrats.
Perfect specimen for this sport with a genetic advantage. Perfect height and muscular structure and weight so she will dominate this sport. The same way Usain bolt is pretty much unbeatable because of his physical structure. Remarkable
I do gymnastics but my grandma doesn't want me to because she tells me that if i go to prom i won't be able to dance and I would only know how to do gymnastics instead of dance
she went in the right direction. she did pretty well to cover it but she was supposed to connect her weiler half to maloney. so, she lost 0.1 in difficulty, 0.1 for the leg separation, and 0.3 for the late handstand.
Simone is very very talented but the one and only thing that she has to work on is her form. She doesn't really point her toes Nor straighten her feet. But she has an amazing talent for this but of course you will always have something to work on.
Charlotte Simmonds-Hammons jealousy? lololol why would I want to be a teen gymnast? Im a fully grown graphic designer in the music business.. typical response ..though..u get an F for originality.
Dawnatilla the Hun What the heck? Simone is not a boy! Just because of your jealousy and hate on Simone doesn’t mean she is a boy! She is the best FEMALE decorated gymnast on the planet. You are such an immature person.
