The -.500 deduction for your coach making sure you don't injure yourself severely is SO stupid.
No it is not, unless you know nothing about gymnastics. If there is no penalty, then everyone will have their coach there and especially they are going to perform vaults that they haven't mastered yet, and they would just depend on the safety of the spotter that he may intervene if something goes wrong.
Especially because there is no deduction to have them next to the set of bars. makes no sense
Next they will be deducting them for the mats they use 😒
No it isn't. If you think you're going to seriously injure yourself on a skill, you shouldn't be doing it in the first place. If you want the coach there for mental support, then you can take the deduction, which is what Simone chose. Spotters are allowed for bars because fluke accidents are more common.
It makes no sense. It should simply be like UB, if a vault is a certain difficulty level the coach should be allowed to stand in, with no deduction unless touching the gymnast. (And yes, Yurchenko double pike should more than qualify)
Poor Suni is in pain, it's written all over her face, hope she gets well soon, she's a stunning athlete 🙏
I had the same thought
She had the same face in Tokyo, I was always thinking why is she so sad, does she miss her family? Now she looks the same, it is just the way she looks when she doesn't laugh.
I think what got to Suni is that she had to wait her turn to go on beam for a long time after doing vault that her body got cold. I wish her the best of luck on day 2. I know she'll do better. Suni you got this!!!❤
Sunday is definitely in pain. R ankle?
I thought that same thing, looks like she may have hurt her knee on vault. Or it was already injured. I hope she can get healthy quick!!
I'm 30 minutes into the video, and I'm so happy to get to see so many gymnasts represented on this broadcast :D :D
Shout-out to Jordan Chiles for having the most awesome, upbeat personality! She really keeps the team morale high and keeps everybody smiling. That’s a skill that doesn’t get enough recognition!
Also- imma need to see Jordan as an announcer 5-10 years from now, because I think she’d be super fun to watch as a TV personality.
I agree!!
Simone's landings are better than ever. I know she might be stressed but she looks so much happier doing gymnastics, it's crazy
سلام خیلی عالییه💯♥️🎉
Loving Samantha Peszek as an announcer for NBC!! ❤ I know she's been announcing for college for some time now and she is excellent!
One of my favorites!❤
I prefer her so much more than Nastia. ❤ if im not mistaken, Sam actually went to UCLA for communications so sports broadcasting is very much her thing. It would be amazing to have Nastia, Sam, and Laurie up for commentary come Paris! The 3 of them would be a fantastic trio and such a breath of fresh air.
I am really enjoying Samantha announcing the gymnastic events as well! At first I was a little thrown because I had gotten use to Nastia but I have to say… I prefer Samantha! 😅
I miss Nastia and Tim
Although I like these commentators too, but Nastia and Tim are needed for balance.
I love her!
I'm just so happy for Simone, seeing her still dominate while being overall healthier and happier, it's amazing to see. So proud! I also love that at the end she was asked about her husband. Something about that feels much nicer than just asking her a bunch o fstressful questions about how big of a deal the records she might break are; just one, and then moved on to something that's more fun and made her happy to talk about.
I totally agree!
Amazing job by the ladies of USA Gymnastics. Simone continues to impress always and Shilese Jones had an amazing meet today.

Comment any scores or routines i missed please
🙏
Thank you!
angel
thanks queen!
Leanne had a 14.2 on UB, i got it from the rotation score at 58:48 :)
@@brandonneth7707i added it, ty 💕
Shilese, girl WOW! I didn’t know her story with her dad. As someone who has lost a parent(mom), and is still grieving a year later, I’m so impressed by the success of this young lady. I’m barely getting my footing back so seeing this girl achieve what she has while grieving is phenomenal. I hope everything keeps going well for her and she makes it to the Olympics. ❤️
Also- Sam is an amazing commentator. I really hope she is a main stay for future meets!
Agreed!!!
I agree. I really love her commentary and really knows what she’s talking about
OBSESSED with Shilese's gymnastics! What an exquisite gymnast.
I miss Tim’s granulated knowledge and quirkiness! He’s commentating on the men’s side and I wish he were still on the women’s. I feel like he and Sam would be a good combo
I do miss Tim too . . Sometimes. It's a hate n love for me . But he can only commentate when simone is not competing . That the rule for Tim.
@@dannydanielsnycwhy can he only commentate when Simone isn’t competing?
I like Tim. He’s been a staple for years and there’s a comfort with him as commentator. I was teeny when he won the gold and it was so exciting!
I miss him like a splitting headache. He was an obnoxious individual with no clue how to effectively commentate. Same with Elfi. Nastia was ok, Sam is far superior.
Skye’s bar work is absolutely gorgeous.
I totally agree!
I feel so bad for Jade. This is the worse competiton I’ve seen her have. But just like at the Olympics, I know she can come back from the worst and compete better than ever.
Unfortunately, her ballet and performance skills don't get better over the years. Her routines are just not pretty to look at. There is a lack of stretch and tension and graceful movements that gymnastics needs. Years ago she could score points by showing higher difficulties than other gymnasts, but they have caught up now and just show additional graceful movements. I'm afraid Jade won't make a world championship or Olympic comeback.
@@hildehohne8628my issue with Jade is that I think she needs to get a new coach to test her skills and just to bring in a different mindset to her routines. Her dad has coached Jade her entire life and even followed her to coach to coach her there. It’s an odd relationship IMO. And I think maybe she’d do better without him. But again that’s just my opinion
Agreed
Finally! I love the live stream, but I prefer seeing the better quality routines, with the scoring updates!
Shilese Jones is pure gold ! Best line, perfect technique. It s ARTISTIC gymnastics ! Not only acrobatique gymnastics!
I wish the commentators would explain more about the skills, the names of them, the difficulty values.
Tim Dagget did and I miss it too ❤
Simone is always just phenomenal, those vaults WOW!! Shilese, Leanne & Skye were also phenomenal. I love Suni's poise and posture. She has such beautiful form. Hopefully she has a better day 2 on beam, she's such an amazing gymnast.
WOW Jades first fx landing was incredible! Simone also had a beautiful landing with her Chuso pass, and those VAULTS?!! How dare she stick that DPY!! And then her Cheng was soooooo powerful she went flying off the table. Shilese is brilliant and her bars were *chefs kiss*. Jocelyn has so much potential, I just need her to get the form down, more lines and extension and clean execution. Leeann is one of my faves! Her gymnastics is just stunning, I mean look at that beam routine! The grace, the flow, the lines, the form, that switch ring! JO And Jade can both do better. Suni worries me, but only because of her health issues. Skye Blakely is also fantastic, but she worries me with consistency. Zoe Miller bars is superb, but I'm not seeing another event where she can bring another high score for team. Tiana is definitely a star, but this may be too early for her yet. She might be the one to watch for after Paris. Oh and then Kaliya Lincoln continues to impress me as well! Lots of talent in the US!
Yeah too bad Zoe crashed and burned on her best event that was rather shocking! Up to that point Tia was in 5th place but sadly she too had a really bad bars rotation!
Jordan had consistency on her side both her and Leanne used their consistency to get them to 4th and 5th place overall for the first night!
Kaliya had the best night of all the newbies even beating Jocelyn Roberson on both floor and vault and coming in 6th for the first night!
Simone was excellent per usual but a little shaky on beam!
Can't wait for the 2nd night that will tell us all we need to know so for it's shaping up to be thrilling!!
This is a good summary of most of my thoughts, too!😆 Just a fantastic competition for most of them. Jade certainly didn't show her full potential, but I also do think she was underscored on some routines.
i was alittle surprised at how low her floor score was?? like her splits and landings except for the last one seemed good
I completely agree with everything you said
USA Gymnastics is so cool to let us watch replays. US Skating Union should follow suit. Also, no Tim Dagget is a plus.
Wouldn’t it be great if Melanie DJDS would just be allowed to compete at ALL US competitions???
I would vote for that.
She’s not an American. Why should she be allowed to compete at an American competition?
I must've missed it, why was she there this time? I love her, id love to see her more.
i have to say i miss tim and nastia… sometimes they were annoying but they always talked about the code of points, comented every single skill…
i think their only problem is that they only focused on big names gymnasts like simone, mustafina and aly...but i still miss them
Leanne Wong is just so beautiful - rooting for her!!
Finally, one with the commentary 😊
I friggin LOVE Sam as commentator. Such a breath of fresh air!
i am so happy you are posting these in full again
Amazing athleticism! Simone Biles is mind-boggling! Leanne Wong is sooo graceful! Shilese Jones is stunning! But my fave is Jordan Chile's!! Sass and skill, an absolute joy!
Jordan is in 5th and she's got lots of room to improve on beam and floor so if she can focus on those events and do just as good as night one on the other 2 she can have a hell of a meet!! And maybe sneak her way to podium
Thanks so much for posting this amazing competition!!
I love seeing Leanne so smiley and happy
Go Suni! So proud you!
It's so nice to finally see some graceful artistry from Shilese. She's so pretty but she hasn't done a lot of graceful dance moves, instead favoring the jarring and jerking kind of "dance." This is such a prettier routine. I hope she sticks with it.
I wish I could watch this commentary live but I'm from Australia 😭💗 ill stick to the CZcams lives!
Leanne Wong looks like a ballerina doing gymnastics. Absolutely beautiful.
Her beam has always been so soothing. Like ASMR
I likeJordan’s floor routine, Simone’s and Shilese.
Leanne really brings the beauty back into this sport. From her fingertips to her toes, her lines and angles are simply beautiful to watch. ❤ I hope Suni is getting good mental help too. I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to have your brain & goals in one place while your body & health is in another. Sometimes I think we forget how young these girls are, she’s still a teenager having to deal with all this. I’m sure she’s had many days of asking “why me? Why now” moments. Good job coming out to another competition Suni, we all know you are a phenomenal gymnast, even if you may not feel your best right now.
I miss Tim s voice 😂
Noooooo 😩😩😩😩😩
Will he be back? He definitely is the voice of gymnastics
I know you’re joking!😂😂
I miss Tim so bad..
I think my favorite smile to see here is Leanne's - she always looked UTTERLY terrified in comps before she went to college. It speaks volumes as to the difference in culture between college training and elite training and just how important it is to find the fun in what you love again. Makes me tear up.
I love watching the women’s gymnastics. My only complaint is that the cameras focus on Simone or a few other particular athletes exclusively. While I understand your audience wants to see focus on Simone, there are many athletes competing. Please do a better job of giving as many competitors as possible their moment in the spotlight. Every athlete has dedicated years of discipline and passion in preparation, as have their families. I believe they all deserve time and attention. Thank you.
The way the media hyper-focused on Simone during the last Olympics contributed to the stress on her. It's too much for any one person. Now they're doing it again! I understand everyone is excited about Simone, but people have to stop making her into superwoman. She's a human being! Give her teammates some attention as well. Gymnastics isn't the Simone Show and making it into that harms Simone and the whole team.
Leanne Wong is the definition of Artistry
Black & Asian excellence in sports!!
Jeez suni cant catch a break im wishing her good health. ❤
Thanks for posting these!
Laurent stays blocking the camera😭💀
Worse things to be forced to look at...
He has a barren field of _____ to give at this point 😂
I know! 🤣😭 but it was so important he was there to protect Simone incase anything was to go wrong! But I really wanted to see that landing
and the judges 👀 i think he just wants to be seen because his 'spotting' isn't necessary and when they do fall he just stands there lol
@@zerekanthony2203 lmaoo
Leanne Wong has incredible grace and talent 😊 I hope she gos far! Kayla also has so much potential.
Thanks so much for posting !! 🎉
Where’s Tim? I’m one of the few who likes his commentary
Good riddance! He's way too much glad we get something different for a change in over him and Nastia! Sam is refreshing
I like it too! Is he quirky and eccentric? Yes but he explains why gymnasts get the score they get and doesn’t just say good job and leave us wondering.
@@zerekanthony2203 I like Sam and I loved her as a gymnast, but Tim actually taught viewers so much! He named all the skills as the gymnasts did them and actually explained WHY they were performed successfully or not. He provided a lot more than: "a little wobble there," etc.
Edit: watching again, and Sam does a good job naming and explaining the skills. I know people got annoyed with Tim for his negativity, but he gave the audience a good idea of how the gymnasts would score, because the judges are not generous.
Спорт, это то лучшее, что придумало человечество 😊😊😊
Love the commentator combo!!
Amazing to watch the stamina the balance of these young women we love watching them .
Good Luck to all of The Gymnast that are competing in The 2023 Xfinity U.S. Championship in San Jose California!
Where’s Tim Dagget?
Good riddance!!!
I absolutely love Simone Biles Choreo & her Performance on The Floor Routine!
No shade towards the commentators but I miss Nastia and Tim 🥺
same!! I'm so used to watching with Tim's commentary. It feels like home. lol
Jordan’s floor artistry was sooooo good!!Not sure about the face plant at the end lol
Thank you!!
Awn joscelyn the fact she had did a presentation about Simone and now competes wt her made my heart melt so cute 🥹🥹❤️❤️ god bless her
why is the stadium music still playing during floor routines 😡😡 so ANNOYING
not simone's coach blocking the near stuck vault landing 😭😭
Welcome back QUEEN Shilese!!
Team after night 1:
Simone (VT/UB/BB/FX)
Shilese (VT/UB/FX)
Skye (VT/UB/BB)
Kaliya (FX)
Leanne (BB)
Tiana has a better beam than Leanne but Leanne is a better back up on bars.
However this team is missing a second EF contender on VT and UB, so there’s definitely still room for Josc/Jade/Jordan or Suni/Zoe to make their mark with improved performances.
Josc? No way, maybe next year if she fixes her form and her total lack of artistry
I agree with this prediction! I think the second contender would be Jordan.
Skye has a Lopez, and she averaged a 14.225 night 1 on VT, while Josc averaged a 14.325 with her best vaults. She can actually score close to Josc
Skye maybe has a chance for UB and VT, she is performing two vaults and her bars are also pretty good, she really needs to hit tho
Thank you ❤
Where are Tim and Nastia? I miss their commentary!
That's what I've been thinking. Tim actually taught me so much! He would name each skill and describe it so that viewers could learn the specifics.
I agree 💯
Jade and Suni both did not look happy nor did they smile at all🤯🤯
Love this
Poor Jade I feel so bad for her. She's an incredible athlete, but she's kind of a little out of the shape here for elite. She's so used to doing college gymnastics. And this is a big adjustment for her. And like Sam said, she doesn't have the repetition which, by the way, that reminds me of Bella corolli period Bella said the way to perfection is constant practice and repetition and he was right. I can say that it's also been the case for me. With gymnastics, cheerleading, and martial arts, I had to do them billions and thousands of times in practice and in tournaments and competition. Once she messed up once, I feel like it was a downward spiral for her and she is so disappointed in herself. You can see it on her face like she just gave up while she was on beam. And that's so sad I want to see her. Come back and fight, maybe after this competition. She'll go home and regroup and come back and kick a**
The Corollos were awful for gymnastics.
Your A Beautiful Gymnast
I don't understand why peacock doesn't give you guys the 60fps version, they stream it at 60fps don't they?
I think Jade Carey should perform to Bolero on the Floor Exercise next season. It would be a perfect vehicle for her.
I really wonder where they found 1,7 deductions on Jordans bar routine. Execution looked so damn good to me!
Great athletes. Loved every scene and I couldn't find a single pass I could execute so mad respect to everyone and keep perfecting your craft and above all your lives. I respect Simone Biles not just as an elite Athlete but as a great Woman. She is married and still doing this? Some people would hang it up but Simone doesn't just compete, She is performing Gymnastics and that is something to watch regardless of if she win or not. Just to see an athlete push her sport to new heights when she could simply do the usual and win the medals is Inspiring. Go GOAT aka Simone Biles.
BILES WINS AT 26! TOM BRADY OF GYMNASTICS! DOMINATING PEOPLE HALF THEIR AGE!
I love Jordan and Simone .... My Two favorite Gymnast. I mis Nastia Liukin she was another great gymnast back in the day!!
1:32:37 LMAO
I can’t believe they kept that in 😭
Same! I laughed soooo hard
when they put makeup on him i lost it
I cackled
Always watching the ladies in sports. 😘😘😘☮&💙
Jordan is the only top USA gymnast who has true artistic flare on the floor. Everyone else lacks that.
Really? Go and check Nola Matthews' routine and learn what artistry is....There is a reason why Nola with a much lower D-score (5.2) and 3 passes outscored Jordan (5.6) and Jade (5.9) and Robertson (6.2) and Wong (5.6) and others and that is called ARTISTRY
I agree with you (Mola Matthews is also on that list, and I think Khalifa will get there with a bit more time), but I will say that I think this is true of most countries, and I’m happy to see Simone’s choreography and performance flow is WAY better this year. Feels more authentically her, and I can really see BJ’s flair coming in there.
What about Nola ?? She has the most beautiful artistry I have seen!
Uhhh Leanne Wong and Shilese Jones are beautiful on floor!
Feels like basically nobody has good execution on bars anymore. Compare to 2008, even 2012 era gymnastics and the difference is kind of astounding. Not sure why this is. Really basic stuff like toe point and squeezing legs.
I don’t know why any of these ladies want to go to college in Florida at this point.
We may end up with a team of only black athletes. Simone, Jordan, Shilese, Kaliya and Skye. They are all improving so much just in the 2 weeks from classics to nationals.
Also- I think Leanne is making a super strong bid, and I think she’s coming on strong for worlds/ Paris next year. Disappointed that Jade, Joscelyn and Suni weren’t able to hit day one. Can’t wait for tomorrow night!!
Kaliya is a no for me. I don't think she's ready yet. And Jordan is questionable in my opinion. She definitely needs to add some difficulty. I understand that she just finished her college season but I expected a stronger showing from her. Same goes for Jade. I'm waiting to see how Konnor looks once she's healthy. She could have a real shot for the 5th spot over Kaliya
does anyone know about konnor mcclain? is she still injured?
i hope Bart Conner return as commentator in gymnastic🙏♥️
A couple of things. Why is there a deduction for Simone's coach on the vault but not for a coach on bars or a coach AND extra mat on the floor? All of it is about safety so why the difference. It's not like Simone's coach is gonna help her complete the vault - he's literally just there for safety. Makes no sense. Also, why are there college/elite categories for women's gymnastics but the men's program just is it was it and you bounce back and forth seemlessly?
Yeah it's a dumb rule, but it's a rule so it is what it is for the time being....
There was a terrible accident during the '80s so ever since they allow a spotter on bars. On vault though the danger is higher and they want to DISCOURAGE gymnasts from trying vaults they haven't mastered yet which would put them in danger even with a spotter nearby. Same thing about mats, they aren't allowed in international competitions to discourage athletes to perform tumblings they haven't perfected yet. Men Artistic Gymnastic is basically a different discipline and there is nothing to compare there
I don’t have the answers to all your questions, but the reason she is allowed a mat on floor is because when a skill is above either d or e (I don’t remember which) the gymnast can have a mat simply because it protects their ankles when coming down form such a height
The FIG is a bit notorious for applying inconsistent logic with their rules. This one makes little sense to me, too.
FWIW, you can't use extra landing mats on floor at international competitions. The coach is technically only there to remove the mat at US/NCAA meets.
Men's and women's gymnastics is run by completely different sets of people and are really different sports, so the answer is very complicated.
A big part of it is because the women's national team was run by controlling jackasses for decades.
The men have to be 18 before competing senior elite, women 16 (I actually think most of the competitors at Nationals haven't graduated from high school yet).
People used to think that women just couldn't/shouldn't keep competing in their 20s.
Before NIL it was more profitable for the top women to turn pro rather than to compete in NCAA. This was less true for men because their sport is less popular in the US.
Plus a bunch of other stuff.
Q1 (and I preface this by saying this rule is a bad rule and safety measures that don’t interfere with the athlete’s performance should always be allowed), it’s as basic as the fact that it is allowable in the code of points to stand in for bars, but it isn’t on the other events. The other issue appears to be that in order for Laurent to spot from his dominant side, he is standing right in front of the judges, impeding their view.
Q2, the difference here is that MAG NCAA competes with the elite code of points, I.e. the open ended scoring system that both MAG and WAG use in elite, whereas WAG NCAA uses a modified version of Level 10 scoring, which still uses the 10.0 system. This means that the MAG athletes are competing their elite routines year round, instead of the completely different focus of MAG NCAA, which (in theory) focuses more on perfect execution of a smaller selection of skills. Many of the elite WAG athletes who go into NCAA keep a ton of their elite level skills IN their routines, but they’re doing a lot less of them because the routine composition in that code doesn’t have a cumulative difficulty score in the same way elite does.
Will there be a day 2? Did I miss it?
I vastly prefer this coverage where we see athletes competing vs an athlete compete and then stand around waiting for a score
They still didnt show several girls in the top 10 at all!
this competition isn't a 'stepping stone' it's nationals, it's a serious competition and you should be 100% ready to win nationals if you're going to compete at nationals. there are so few competitions to begin with these days and should be taken more seriously like they used to be. worlds is in 4 weeks. glad to see 'less' goofing off by some of the gymnasts here as well..
Tô até agora tentando entender essa nota de trave da Jocelyn, como ela tirou nota menor que Shilise se a série dela tem mais dificuldade e a Shilise colocou a mão no aparelho?
Joscelyn's difficulty is very high, but her form is riddled with errors. Every skill should be done with pointed toes, and most require very straight legs. Every wobble is a deduction (three very obvious wobbles basically amounts to a fall). The list goes on.
The good news is that her form has improved (and will likely continue to improve) since she's been training at Simone's gym! She's definitely a contender for the next Olympics.
I think she received more deductions on each skill. Shilese had a 7.6 execution with a fall. Joss had a 7.2 with no fall
Tb não entendi. A nota de dificuldade da Jocelyn é maior que da Shilise. Achei a Shilise bem mais limpa de execução até a parte que ela coloca a mão no aparelho. É praticamente uma queda. Meu palpite é que quando a Jocely quebrou a conexão do Onodi dela; talvez ela sofreu uma penalidade por não ter o mínimo de conexões exigidas. Mas não estou muito familiarizado com o CoP desse ciclo.
One thing nobody mentions is that Jocelyn does not do adequate splits on almost all her jumps/leaps. That eats away at your score.
@@ParisInTheSpringtime999her jumps & leaps really werent good here… i love her but her execution really wasnt her best this day,
It’s almost impossible to watch NBC broadcasts of gymnastics, because they infuriating,y only show a handful of competitors. They treat us to lots of time when gymnasts are standing around waiting, chalking up, doing nothing, talk to to friends, waiting for their scores, basically TREATING THIS SPORT LIKE A SOAP OPERA! When a gymnast is done, move on to the next gymnast for crying out loud! We don’t need to see Simone’s every move throughout the night! She’s only performing for 5 minutes total, yet we see her for so much of the broadcast. I feel sorry for the 20 + other competitors who hardly get any time on camera, even though they earned their place to be there today, and have trained probably 10 or more years to be there.
I like Josc’s floor routine too! It’s fun!
I don't see where Jordan helps team USA? Will it be exclusively on floor? I'm worried about her space
I’m an outsider to gymnastics and trying to learn more about it, does anyone know why a double pike is considered the most difficult vault? It seems to be the go to for a last pass on floor and extremely common as a dismount on beam, is it because you don’t have all of the acrobatic skills directly before?
Its really interesting to see some of athletes transition back into elite from college. Uncharted waters. Its going to
Be very interesting
Serious question- was there something wrong with that bottom bar? So many people had trouble with it…
Is there an nbc broadcast with them?
men and women will be on nbc today!
2023 WORLD TEAM: SIMONE, SHILESE, JOSC, LEANNE, JADE - ALT: DULCY/SKYE
I would say Simone, Shilese, Skye, Jordan, and ? Not sure who the 5th should be yet.
@@angiebrown4463I feel like Leanne has to be there. I don't know about Jordan, which is making me nervous
Can we take a minute to appreciate how Gabby and Simone, by the very act of representation have quite literally changed the makeup of US gymnastics? 30 years ago, it was a bunch of tiny white girls, some Asian girls and an occasional black girl. Now it is a virtual rainbow and we have so many outstanding athletes! I love it! Representation MATTERS.
Can someone explain to me how the execution score on vault between Simone with a step to the side (9.8) and Skye with a stick (9.35) can differ so much?
Great sport
They had to make this shilese montage before they knew simone was coming back. You can tell this was her year! And that TRIPLE L turn was GORGEOUS
Why no tim and nastia?
Maybe because it isn’t the prime time show.
Instead of Tim and Nastia doing Mens and Womens coverage together, it’s Tim and Terry for the Men and Sam and Terry for the Women. I’d prefer to have Sam and Tim together.

Does anybody know what Melissa Metcalf is doing? I saw her in the background a couple of times and I still remember her from her UCLA manager days
