Why did Ana Pavlova from Russia get a 0.00 for her second vault @ olympics?

Question

Watched the vault last night and saw nothing wrong with her second vault. Then the score came up 0.00 and there was no explanation??? What gives???

Answer 1

She went before the judges were ready to watch. There's a light that turns green when it's time for you to do your vault, and the light was still red when she landed.

At least, that's what I understood, but I agree no one seemed to know what was going on!

Answer 2

because it SUCKED!

Answer 3

It all kind of sucks. there are gymnasts who really mess up their exercise and get still a medal. An here  they practically  ruin ana pavlova's creer. I think it all sucks. Inever heard of something like this before. If she started before the green light, why did they wait so long to give her the 0.00?

Answer 4

EllaC was right. She had a false start.  She started before the judges gave the go ahead.

Answer 5

She went before the light turn green

Answer 6

Because she started her run up before being given the green light to do so.
