China or US? Gymnastics Gold?

Question

did china or US get gold in womens gymnastics yesterday?

Answer 1

China will get the Gold but the USA will file a formal complaint about the age of the Chinese women's team.   They appear to be way younger than 16 years old.

From the CNN web site.

Five of the six team members have the appearance of pre-pubescent children. "The little babies," is how U.S. coach Martha Karolyi refers to the Chinese gymnasts when speaking to her team, and they certainly are little. Li Shanshan (16) is 4-foot-9, 79 pounds. Yang Yilin (15) is 4-foot-11, 77 pounds. He Kexin (16) is 4-foot-8, 73 pounds. Jiang Yuyuan (16) is 4-foot-7, 71 pounds. But the prize goes to Deng Linlin (16), who's listed at 4-foot-6 and a strapping 68 pounds.

Answer 2

China.

No offence but I think it would have been better if the US won. China have sooo many young girls that are not treated healthily! They practically kill the poor things...

But congratulations to China if they won fairly! I just hope those rumours about the girls being under age are not true..

Answer 3

China. Alicia Sacramone had an off-night falling twice.

Answer 4

China. You missed a great competition but the judges clearly favored China, especially on the beam when both China and the US had falls.
