[@aarontse2014]

Murakami did amazing. almost made the podium with a fall. hopefully she comes back strong 2018

[@Alchamei]

Thinking about it, she actually should have been at the podium. Black was so blatantly overscored.

[@joannakroyd]

She should have had the bronze. I'm sorry. I usually give judges the respect they have earned, but this was crazy. The execution scores coming even close to hurd or eremina is insane. She had the difficulty, but her form leaves a lot of room to improve. I wanted to scream "point your toes" and "straighten your legs" more times than I can count

[@prbt22]

I ACTUALLY THOUGHT you meant the Author. But then that wouldn't be right :3

[@mcwyman7928]

At least she won floor gold! And it's about damn time she got a medal!

[@liukin95]

So happy for Morgan she is my favourite of the USA team! I also acknowledge that Ellie Black would have won had she not taken the .5 deduction on beam for touching her hand on the apparatus, Eremina could have been better on bars so this result could have gone either way. But of course, had Ragan, Larisa and Rebeca not have gotten injured we would be talking about a completely different result, this was the most wide open AA competitions we've seen in a while!

[@joao35967]

Eremina has huge potential. Without her mistakes on bars she would've won the championships. Could you imagine if she upgrades her vault and floor? I can't wait to see it

[@Appaddict01]

Caio Torres It seems like good bar workers. Have an advantage under the new code. Beam & floor are judged so harshly.

[@shushunovafan4301]

Nope, vault still reigns supreme. Floor has always scored low, this is not new.

[@bgreen5234]

Bars had the highest scores throughout the competition.

[@shushunovafan4301]

But only because the bars field is very competitive right now. For example, I think Eremina is better at bars (top qualifier) than Ragan is at floor (top qualifier for FX finals).

[@Appaddict01]

Lebronze Blackrose Look at the top bars girls. They were all in the high fourteens & low fifteens. I think only Jade & Maria hit 15 on vault. They needed Amanar’s, to do it. If Eremina had hit bars. She would be World Champion. She only vaulted a 1.5. A good DTY gets mid-fourteens, now. This quad it looks like bars, vault, floor, & beam.

[@raphouice4300]

I m really sad for smith and Iordache .. but Hurd step up to the challenge that is so impressing. Also really proud of Melanie , made the top 5 like she wanted !

[@mitzr6307]

Raphou Ice Hurd is boring... sorry my opinion only. She looks way to stiff and routines aren't wow factor.

[@jojox9791]

mitz r really? I find the opposite. She is like a breath of fresh air. She had the difficulty, the artistry and she can dance!!

[@CodySDivineCreators]

Eremina reminds me of a young Mustafina. Not quite as many skills but she has that aura of Mustafina to me. I think she'll be one to watch. And her eye makeup is on fleek!!! Just like Musta 💅

[@Appaddict01]

Cody S. She looks like a taller Norah Flatly.

[@shushunovafan4301]

Mustafina: The second coming.

[@martipanda2531]

Cody S. yeah!! I was thinking she has that "aura" as well! Just gorgeous

[@CodySDivineCreators]

Marti Panda Right?! She is so beautiful.

[@ashley2710]

She’s back in training eeeeeeeekkk!!

[@Katie-cm4mx]

Morgan Hurt the competition.

[@Appaddict01]

Katie lol

[@juanfranciscogarza2180]

Elena Eremina the best in that podium, without any doubt she will become a real lock for Russia

[@redfire696]

no... obviously morgan was the best in that podium, because she won lol

[@juanfranciscogarza2180]

At the end of this championship you're going to know what I meant.

[@redfire696]

i mean she'll probably win bars lol, but morgan will probably win beam soooo

[@juanfranciscogarza2180]

redfire696 we will see

[@bdev47devine86]

+Juan Francisco Garza that makes no sense. individual event finals does not determine the best AA gymnast, unless they made all 4 finals, which she did not, neither of them

[@maussolo]

If only Eremina had performed normal on bars she would be champion right now.

[@DT-ds7sc]

Mauricio M if my aunt has a penis, she would be my uncle.

[@DT-ds7sc]

gowreesh nath should could would

[@stesan60]

Please correct the spelling of Morgan's name. It is Morgan Hurd. Thank you.

[@jorgecortezperez4481]

Thank you FIG Channel for transmitting the World Cup for all of us

[@melissawingfield8666]

Congratulations, Morgan!

[@gymlandia4467]

I love Morgan Hurd

[@monicakelly6273]

I still can no get over Eremina.... I was so sure she was Russia next great AA'r.

[@kameroncoleman9293]

ITS HURD NOT HURT

[@climbergreen_]

it is TURD, not Hurd

[@blue_manatee3895]

In my opinion (don't read if you don't like): This was a great competition for such an underwhelming World Championships. It was exciting, well-rounded, and not just a race for silver and bronze like it was for the past however many years. Morgan Hurd did incredibly well and had solid and artistic routines (look at her dance sequence from 3:29 to 3:40! I mean, the little extras she adds with her fingers and toes are just so creative and refreshing to see instead of some cookie-cutter power-power-power-"dance" segment-power that most American routines are nowadays). Elsabeth Black finally got some recognition for her consistent gymnastics over the years, and Elena Eremina looks like she could become the next Victoria Komova or Aliya Mustafina. Even though I'm a little disappointed that Mai Murakami didn't get on the podium for Japan, she still won a gold on floor. The event finals weren't so great in my opinion (and I feel that some people should have gotten into the finals, like Georgia-Mae Fenton instead of Ashton Locklear), but it wasn't just a USA sweep of the whole thing. Looking forward to 2018 worlds in Doha!

[@johanarteaga7622]

I love that she said if Simone was there she would’ve won

[@redfire696]

she never said that lol. she said that since simone isn't there, there will for sure be a new world champion

[@caybayzez]

@cts sam Hurd won the AA over all of the other potential world team candidates including Ragan Smith at the Worlds Selection Camp where the team was selected. She was still coming off of her injury at Natls. Plus the US women have such a high degree of difficulty that their athletes are trained to peak only at a certain point during the season otherwise it’s too hard on their bodies. So the US selects it’s competitors based on who is the best at the time the competition is about to take place, not at nationals several weeks earlier.

[@amyk4288]

holy crap canada won a medal

[@dannybro147]

Amy K Yes. First time since 2006, it was on the beam. And yes... first time ever in the all-around, it happened.

[@These2EyesDontLie]

*_It'll never happen again. I'm a WHITE Canadian gymnast, and in MY naked 20/20 VISION eyes, Canadian MEN gymnasts are good, but Canadian WOMEN gymnasts will just never measure up_* @@dannybro147

[@danieladinu6852]

Congrats Morgan!

[@pinoylargo9418]

Congrats

[@mcwyman7928]

I'm excited for Elena Eremina. She has the potential to be an incredible talent for Russia team, right up there with Aliya Mustafina. And Morgan Hurd as champion! Who would've thought?

[@2kx328]

Eremina could have won this thing had she hit bars like she did in prelims. She's definitely gonna be one to watch for Russia for years to come. SO HAPPY FOR MORGI BOO!! but really sad for Mai... this final be channeling mixed emotions 😭😭 Also can we not say they got lucky? Yes I know if Andrade, Iordache and Smith were competing things probably would have been different but at the end of the day they weren't competing and those who were in the final were competing and the result turned out the way it did. Yes it may not have been as exciting but let's not take away from these gymnast's wins, they look very happy and we should be happy for them too.

[@Bxyxox]

Turns out she wasn’t lmfao

[@mocneeuq]

Let's admit it, Morgan and Ellie Black got very lucky. But luck always plays a part in this sport and today is their lucky day LOL. If Romania is one unlucky country, USA is so damn lucky.

[@megang8658]

I wouldn't say luck has anything to do with it.. They all work so hard to achieve what they have. How well you perform relies on consistency & your mentality/confidence. Personally I think Black was over scored (her execution is poor) but Morgan earned that title - she's an extremely talented gymnast. I knew she had it in her

[@brianpatterson1827]

Gracie C. Luck never played a part really for Simone Biles or Alexandra Raisman lol

[@brianpatterson1827]

Megan Grant agreed.

[@RobertJohnson-hx7bk]

Gracie C. They're lucky they stayed away from injuries but other than that they earned they're medals!

[@artgalgenius]

Romania made bad decisions years ago after the retirement of Belu and Bitang and it will take them years to correct that if they make the right decisions. A lot of us saw the warning signs years ago. Russia went through the same thing after the retirement of Arkaev but are coming back strong with a system that works for their country. It took the US 20 years to come up with a system that consistently creates strong gymnasts. Luck had nothing to do with it.

[@user-mc7qt1bl2f]

Donuts medals 😂

[@TruskTheJohn]

IT'S MORGAN HURD NOT HURT

[@salvatoreamarante5991]

4:34 MORGAAAAN 😂😂😂

[@osbonecosdamirnita]

queen Morgan! God save the new Queen, Morgan Hurd!

[@mitzr6307]

Mirna Luján Hernández seriously???? OK .

[@naiandeson]

Black over on beam 😠😠😠

[@thalesrocha1989]

Elena Eremina 😍😍

[@heyytundo7844]

My heart really goes out Ragan and larissa. They could've beaten these scores in their sleep

[@cj222100]

Those medals remind me of the 06 Torino winter olympic medals. Which I thought looked like DVDs.

[@pappysprite]

Wow, what a disappointing World Championship. I miss the days when a simple wobble would take you out of medal contention. To win medals with falls is hard to swallow.

[@swimmerathlete394]

pappysprite lolololol Simone won with falls 2018 stfu

[@dfdhpksugfoigfoiq3754]

Elena’s floor was underscored

[@rafa456o]

Not it wasnt, she lost her gold medal on bars.

[@dfdhpksugfoigfoiq3754]

Rafael Araújo her e score should had been .2 or .3 higher but I do agree it was on bars where she lost her gold

[@joao35967]

+Rafael Araújo eai, Rafael? Ficou feliz com a vitória da Morgan? 😂😂

[@GymnasticsWorldWide]

Nebeb Nanajsj Her score in quals was 9 tenths higher. She could have won. As could have Murakami. It was an exciting yet disappoint all around

[@maussolo]

Yes, she was so much cleaner that she did in quals, landed with chest uprght, and better landings. Maybe they didnt credit the Semenova.

[@omarianhussain3827]

3:27 is that the hurd thats a ring 1 and a half jump

[@albertotognoni4819]

100+ comments read all but stopped the video! :D

[@autumnwronikowski]

Was there a team final?

[@badmingtonsunset1386]

Who would win Simone Biles vs. Morgan Hurd

[@monicakelly6273]

Still the ugliest effing medals I have ever seen. The one year Simone wasn't there and they went and effed the medals up. Doha had gorgeous medals.

[@musicbilu9215]

where is Biles, Raisman and others !!?!?

[@redfire696]

theyre on a break, most likely wont return until next year or 2019

[@musicbilu9215]

but why on championships

[@redfire696]

they havent trained since the last olympics, theyve already been to the world championships before, they need a longgg break and then come back once its closer to the next olympics

[@RobertJohnson-hx7bk]

MusicBILU they're not robots, they took a well needed break from gymnastics, plus they're making that money while chillen!

[@niketrackandfield7456]

Что с Ангелиной, я расчитывала на нее

Since the new cop

[@aureolima3072]

o pior mundial de ginastica desde 2009

[@ferdinandtambungui2958]

No!!! Ragan and injury?! Worst Worlds ever!! I was hoping Ragan and Hurd would win an AA medal. So is she out of the whole competition? She qualified first on FX. Sad she fell on the Beam which was one of her strongest now shes out. Now its upto Jade for FX.

[@448cv]

Ferdinand Tambungui Ragan is way to overrated! She so arrogant, I was so glad to see she was out! Maybe this experienced of getting injured will humble her a little bit before coming back next year.

[@youngcontrarian8532]

Morgan Hurd is an incredibly lackluster and over-rated gymnast. I'd be surprised if she survives this next quad. She won but let's face it, there wasn't much real competition there to begin with. I just hope the Top girls (Biles, Raisman, Iordache) return in 2018 so I could actually see some real talent.

[@redfire696]

"real talent" morgan is only 16 years old, calm down. let me remind you simone and aly were not that great at 16 either, she'll improve and most likely make it to tokyo

[@448cv]

I think she super talented for her first time at worlds! I do believe as soon as Simone and aly comes they will def dominate, but at 16 Simone was already amazing. She won the first time she was at a world champion and continue to win until the 2016. She also won 4 gold medals there. I see a very young and someone who has a lot of potential in Morgan.

[@trevorfuncheon8501]

Young Contrarian be aware that not only Morgan is a first year senior, but she is only 16 years old. Simone and Aly are in their 20’s so they probably stopped growing. While Morgan is still growing and yet she is advanced tumbling passes that even Simone was doing at the olympics last year(Silivas) . She’ll eventually get more cleaner and become a better gymnast as she gets more older and experienced, since this is her 3rd international competition. Overall, she did very well at Montreal this year and hope to see her in Tokyo in 2020!

[@silverlilysalwaysmagical3239]

Young Contrarian we must remember that she is sixteen and if international judges deemed her worthy to win first at worlds I don’t see why you don’t think she deserved the gold.

[@potatogymnast4306]

Young Contrarian Surely there are people who are better, more succesful and have more experience than Morgan. But her career has just began, and she has plenty of time to improve and shine. None of the gymnasts you listed are sixteen year old new seniors like Morgan. They are undoubtely better than her. They have improved heaps since they were 16 and so will Morgan. She was the best one competing there that day and she is a World Champion, end of story. No need to steal the child's glory with your salty "but it wasn't much real competition".

[@kopper7509]

cts sam American women’s depth is incredible that it all comes down to execution at the selection camps right before the championships. Still incredible that Morgan would be the one to pick up the title. I guess Liukin was right to pick her as AA number 2.

[@rafa456o]

She won at camp tho

[@kopper7509]

Rafael Araújo true from the videos I saw.

[@jojox9791]

She was coming back from injury. She is so tiny and graceful with HUGE power. Her tumbling and BB seem almost unreal coming from her. Love her glasses too

[@kameroncoleman9293]

Maybe because 1 was injured, 2 was non-travelling, 3 is injured and 4 should've made the team over her imo but we all have our opinions.
