Top 8 qualifiers and scores:
1. Beth Tweddle - GBR - 16.133
2. He Kexin - CHN - 15.966
3. Viktoria Komova - RUS - 15.833
4. Yao Jinnan - CHN - 15.766
5. Aliya Mustafina - RUS - 15.700
6. Gabrielle Douglas - USA - 15.333
7. Elisabeth Seitz - GER - 15.166
8. Koko Tsurumi - JPN - 15.033
What to watch for:
This final could go honestly so many different ways. He Kexin is the reigning Olympic Champion from Beijing, but she has many challengers that could take away the chances of her winning a second gold medal on this apparatus.
Beth Tweddle in qualifications and Aliya Mustafina in the AA have the highest Uneven Bars score posted at the Olympics so far -- a 16.1. For these two to get it done tomorrow and challenge for the gold medal, Beth will most definitely have to hit all of her super difficult releases and connections and Aliya will really need to stick her dismount that is named after her.
Viktoria Komova can also score very well on this event, and so can Gabrielle Douglas. I believe there will be these 5 girls (He, Beth, Aliya, Viktoria, and Gabby) fighting for the spots on the podium.
My Medal Podium:
AAAH there is so many scenarios that I want. Mainly I want Beth Tweddle or Musty to win gold (mostly I want Musty because she deserves it so much after coming back from her injury to get where she is now), and I want Gabby to medal. So we will say ..
Musty, Beth, Gabby.
