What was wrong with Beth Tweddle's uneven bar's routine earlier?

Question

She was better than the American, Nastia Luikin, who's parent was Russian, and competed as a RUSSIAN, AND how was the dismount worse than Yang Yilin, surely she deserved a bronze, at least, she had the hardest routine, and overall, had a much better routine.

Answer 1

I think she got robbed and even though I'm biased I thought the marking was very harsh.

Answer 2

to me she was the best, an unbelievable routine and can't for the life of me think what the judges were doing, apart from being biased or closing their eyes.  

Answer 3

beth had a lot of form issues, like she usually does. she has an arched back a lot of the time, and doesn't really hit her handstands. all those deductions really add up.  

Answer 4

I totally agree!

Answer 5

Why do you keep emphasizing Russia? Just because she was from Russia doesn't make her better.

Answer 6

She effed up the ending.. so lost points for execution.  I thought her routine was way better than the other chinese nd americans tho... because theirs was like really not that exciting...Beth did loads of differet twists and was different and more adventurous then the others ...i thought she definatly deserved a medal.  

Answer 7

I agree. The judges in the gymnastics do seem quite biased aswell.  

Answer 8

She was talking about this on TV and apparently they deduct 0.1 for taking a sidestep on landing, and of course this amount would have put beth on a tie with the first two on points.  She also thought she got the approach to her dismount wrong and this is probably where she received the most deductions.  I was really hoping she would get a medal!

Answer 9

Heya, i think your right.... I think she was robbed!  She does the hardest routine than any of the other gymnasts and still doesnt get what she should.... i mean im no judge so i dont know how they mark but all she did was a little step forwards on the dismount!!

She was class!!!

And she isnt going to London 2012! where she would have the proper support!!!

I think alot of the times, politics comes into it but im not sure...!!

But to be honest, i think that Shawn Johnson is better than Nastia Llukin!!!! lol

Thank You For Letting Me Voice My Opinion!!!
