Just watched it..NGL it was pretty whack the way they did her. IMO her routine was definitely better, but I guess they changed the difficulty value of Chiles routine. Rough call on one hand doing "harder" tricks is more risky but if you don't land those harder tricks versus someone landing everything but not taking as many risks tough to say who deserves it. To the layman like me the cleaner less risky routine was more deserving. Not like ol girl was just out there doing cartwheels and handstands.

Newsflash:

If you can’t even hold the competition in the same country that the Olympics are being held in, then you’re not really an Olympic sport.

Hear that surfing?

And no I don’t consider Tahiti to be part of France…colony be damned.

It would be one thing if he was born there or lived there for a time and decided he wanted to move there and earn citizenship.

Neither of those things are true.

He used a loophole because his mom is from there and was probably given financial incentives to jump ship.

Being a big fish in a little pond >>>

He will forever be a God in Sweden whereas here stateside he would’ve been forgotten by the next news cycle.

Unless it’s Basketball, Swimming or Gymnastics, it just doesn’t seem like the love lasts as long.

A lot of jumpers pass on lower heights and come in later with a height they can “warm up” with

I remember in the old days that Sergei Bubka was so much better than everyone else that he’d wait until everyone was done and then do his first vault quite a bit above theirs.

I did see that backfire once though and he got nothing when he could easily have won the thing by not being overconfident.
