Jessica Lopez VEN Qual UB Olympics Rio 2016

[@brianpatterson1827]

Getting into the finals was like a medal in itself for Jessica. She's been around for years and is an awesome gymnast and never gets really recognized for what she is worth. Good stuff

[@EmilyS1234]

Even a Trinidadian gymnast cheers for her

[@saragrant9749]

She had gorgeous lines on this event. Best part was her coach in the background!

[@strongbad635]

This was THE moment of Rio qualifications for me. Tears.

[@giogym]

What a beautiful moment! She deserved that spot in event final! :)

[@ezeid137]

Did she make it EF?

[@giogym]

ezeid137 Yes she did! She placed 6th in EF!

[@saragrant9749]

Her coach’s reaction was the best part.

[@jadeyukiful]

Puro talento latino 😘

[@susandilaudo9534]

Rewatching her and houry's olympics. Tears. This was beautiful. The entire thing; routine and celebration.

[@LuizHenrique-qj7jn]

made me cry

[@ignacioquinteross]

Es increíble que cada vez que lo veo me emociono como la primera vez 🥺 3 olimpiadas , 12 años para consagrarse y meterse en una final. JESICA ERA LO MEJOR EN UB♥️

Beautiful routine

[@Julian___294]

Ella tenía que ser bronce, hubiera aumentado su nota de partida....

[@jesuspalomo5143]

En la final aumentó su nota de dificultad, pero su ejecución si fue un poco cuestionable, comparando que estaba con las grandes. Si la hubiese mantenido, hubiese peleado por bronce o obtenido bronze

[@fptrainerpfranp1153]

Beautifull performance. Very hard for latino People gimnastic medals

[@joseagraz7553]

Gran momento para ella que fue especialista en ese aparato y no pudo conseguir su medalla, pero gran orgullo venezolano que logro estar entre las mejores 8 all around y por injusticia un 6 lugar en la final de barras . Maravilloso quien sabe xjando volvera a nacer otra gimnasta de elite en vzla ....

[@roycheung9210]

Great routine

[@robertmoura4314]

Emocionante!

@@RobeDuarte thanks

[@kaioemanuel1939]

most emotional moment from the qualifications

[@saragrant9749]

I loved her coach’s reaction, he was just ecstatic. She absolutely deserved to make that final- in spite of what others have said.

[@CarlosHernandez-qq1bp]

Que emotivo ese momento del abrazo 😢

[@thalesrodrigues9195]

Eu choro vendo isso

[@saragrant9749]

For anyone out there complaining that she “didn’t deserve a spot in finals and it should have been Fan Yilin”- shut it, your opinion doesn’t mean jack. THIS is how you perform a qualifier routine, not one with multiple mistakes and missed connections. She deserves respect and recognition for making it to finals, and those who feel otherwise are meaningless.

I was surprised when I heard that Fan didn’t make the final but Jessica did. When I watched the videos, I was so happen for Jessica. She has been the whole gymnastics for VEN, and has done a great job in the qualification. Yeah, this is also the moment for me in Rio qualification. As a fan for Chinese team, I was sorry to see Fan get such a low score, but she made mistakes, it was a fair result.

[@saragrant9749]

My favorite part was her coach’s reaction. He was so ecstatic.

[@latinboy212]

😢💪💘

[@edisonpalencia5534]

Extraordinaria

[@henrypaixao7204]

Eu até me emocionei quando ela conseguiu a final desse aparelho. Só quem acompanha sabe o tanto que ela treinou para poder estar entre os 10 melhores no Individual Geral e tbm pegar a final da Barra Assimétrica.

[@pedroribeiro3384]

Essa é a realidade da maioria dos países q só têm uma atleta com a qual se podem qualificar para os jogos. Ver alguém fora dos grandes países, q têm dificuldades em ter apoios, é preciso mts sacrifícios. Não quero dizer q as ginastas de países q investem, tb n o façam, mas é diferente. A Jennifer é ginasta de nível mundial, mas por exemplo, tb gosto de ver uma ginasta do Egito, das Caraibas, ver a ginasta do meu país, pode n ter a dificuldade de aparelho das outras ginastas, mas vê-las fazer o seu melhor, é um orgulho mt grande.

[@saragrant9749]

She is truly a legend in the sport!

[@Zuranthium]

I love that combination of skills in the middle of her routine, but this was very overscored and did NOT deserve to make finals. She lacks form on many of the moves (that Pak salto omg) and her catches are very heavy. They calculated her difficulty score incorrectly as well, this is just a 6.2 value routine but they gave her a 6.4 somehow.

[@saragrant9749]

Ah, the words of someone who has been to the Olympics as a judge and has decades of experience to go on. NOT. Her form was better than most, and DID deserve a spot in finals. The leg separation is difficult to see from the angle the judges have to sit at, but her handstands were strong and she got all her connections completed. That, in contrast to Fan Yilin who everyone seemed to feel should have made it with the debacle of a qualifying routine she had.

[@Zuranthium]

@@saragrant9749 As usual you don't know what you're talking about. Her difficulty score was factually calculated wrong and her form was absolutely NOT better than most other top elites. There are bent arms all over the place here and all of the releases have issues. Fan Yilin's routine was much harder and executed fine enough in comparison to this.

[@saragrant9749]

@@Zuranthium you are blind. Go watch Fan and all the missed connections, missed handstands and rethink your personally biased opinion. You just don’t like this routine and have decided it was “unfair” that Fan missed the cut. Get over yourself self righteous ideologues.

[@saragrant9749]

⁠@@ZuranthiumFan MISSED CONNECTIONS AND DID NOT HIT HANDSTANDS!! Why that is a foreign concept to people like you, I’ll never know. The angle the judges have does not show leg separation, and you have the worst angle possible to see her form on the pak. Let the people who actually understand how to judge gymnastics do it- unless you’re going to stop being a lazy mouthpiece and actually go learn to do it yourself.

[@saragrant9749]

@@Zuranthiumagain, YOU are the clueless one. The JUDGES are the ones certified, experienced in calculating scores and execution. You have the incorrect angle to judge- or justify- your false claims, and clearly know NOTHING about the system from that time. You obviously didn’t even WATCH Fan’s routine which had multiple missed connections and handstands, and did not even remotely earn a finals spot. Jessica hit all her connections and had only one low handstand of any significance. She EARNED her spot in finals. All you are is someone meaningless who is jealous of an individual who has achieved great things in life.
