I initially had a similar reaction to Steve's when Simone first withdrew, but then I read about the twisties and I don't think people here realize how truly dangerous that condition can be. One gymnast said that if she hadn't been as well-trained as she is she could have easily suffered a career-ending injury on the awkward dismount that caused her to withdraw. Would any of us really expect an athlete to risk serious injury for Olympic glory. |
