And now they are saying it might be a physical issue - not sure what is happening. Just hope Simone is ok.

I'm so relieved that Jordan stayed on the beam - even with a not so great score. I was very nervous after her qualifying performance.
Twitter updates say it is indeed a mental issue with Simone. I'm sure the rumor mills will be nuts with speculation.
What I wouldn't give to have Jade or MyKayla on the team for the floor rotation.
Russia could have a fall and still win. We just don't have floor power without Simone.
At least Suni ended it on a good note. She had a good day.
If Simone is unable to compete in the all around, will Jade be eligible to replace her?
I'm more interested if Skinner would be able to go on vault as a potential replacement, or do they go with the #9 since those folks are considered the "official" replacements...Simone did screw up her vault today, so it's the most likely place for her to scratch because I can't imagine her doing 2 vaults...

No American can replace her on floor or bars because they did not score high enough in prelims to be reserves for those events.
There is a 2 per country rule for AA and event finals. Jade and Skinner were bumped from event finals due to the 2 per person rule. If Simone withdraws, they can compete as they are now the 2nd person for the US on those events and they qualified in prelims.
They’re calling it a “medical issue.” They haven’t said it’s a physical injury.Theyre actually saying she got hurt
