The rules and technical regulations specifically say about the All Around and Event Finals that a federation can replace a gymnast with another from the same country as long as the gymnast qualified above the first reserve for any reason as long as it’s at before the 24 hour p ..read more

lobaznyuk: After a rocky team final, Liu TingTing is taken out of the all around and replaced by teammate Tang Xijing, who placed 21st in qualifications. Exceeding all expectations, Xijing hits all four events and ends up in silver medal position, making her the second Chinese gymnast to earn a world’s silver medal in Women’s Gymnastics history— their best finish to date ..read more
