Mustafina winning by less than 3 hundredth of a point was so incredible to see. Madison Kocian had a fantastic routine. And the margin of her win was less than the difference between her difficulty and Madison's of 6.8 and 6.7 respectfully.

[@Fvhlipe]

she basically did ctrl c + ctrl v with Mustafina's routine lol. I believe that if she had done a one and a half twist double somersault instead of just a full twist, she could've won.

[@donaldholderdoc2910]

Can you imagine the poor athletes who planned their whole life for the Olympic games. Planning routines, trying to peak at just the right time and having it delayed not just one time but for a whole year? Then retraining, trying to plan on repeaking and have it possibly postponed or worse, cancelled permanently? I wouldn't want to be the one to tell them. There's no way most of these gymnasts will be able to hang on physically till 2024 as top athletes in their field.

[@LucienSabre]

@@donaldholderdoc2910 Except Japan said like months ago that they wouldn’t postpone the Games again let alone cancel them. As security measure, they won’t let foreign public (at first they had planned to not have public at all, but then the situation in the country got much better) in the stadiums and facilities - but japanese people can.

Kocian's routine is a plagiarism of Mustafina's, who would come to innovate with her style and her way of achieving difficulty in 2012, matching her opponents based on E skills. I agree that both have the same problems (although Maddison was always given tenths of an E-note lol) but not that they are on par, that level of grace, fluidity, elegance, difficulty and execution can only be achieved by the queen of the bars; Aliya Mustafina Of Russia, and that is why she was the winner in the eyes of anyone with objectivity.
