Gymnasts, anyone see Rebecca Bross' fall yesterday?
She under rotated and landed mid-twist on her knee that she just had surgery on in August at the Visa Classic yesterday. They wouldn't even replay the vault. It was ugly. The Karolyi's were in shock, Nastia had tears in her eyes, and everyone stopped competing to see what was happening. I'm hoping it is just a patella injury that she can recover from for London, but I'm not so sure since Valeri Liukin (her coach) wouldn't comment on if it was blown or not. He didn't leave her until she was being cared for and only came back for her bag. I'm hoping it's not as serious as it looked since she's only 16 and was in fifth place yesterday which would put her on the Olympic team.
Nastia was on the selection committee for World's with Shawn Johnson, Chelsie Memmel, and Alicia Sacramone trying to come back. Sacramone has never looked more solid, but Shawn has lost difficulty. Memmel was at the top of her game until the end and lost it on bars. She has a bad shoulder that couldn't support her. She was icing it heavily and stopped the routine.
I can't believe I'm still addicted to this sport after being out for so long. I think Nastia will be in London even though she won't come out that she's coming back. She never stopped training after Beijing and the deadline isn't until after World's.
