Simone walking over to tell Suni “good job” makes me SO HAPPY. They clearly respect each other with high esteem.

Actually, simone had a pep talk with suni after she fell on vault and told her to trust her gymnastics and then offered to stand close to bars for support and suni told her she needed her there. So cute.

@@semoneg2826 right, they were so cut throat at last yrs Tokyo Olympics calling her a quitter and bashing her name just because she took care of her mental health after so many others leaning on her to get Gold. But she's a true sportsmanship and friend and she doesn't try to outshine nobody or shun others. Simone is a real big heart and the Goat for real!

She's shown such resilience dealing with her kidney disease and her father's injury. Shilese Jones has also shown strength after her father's death. I hope they both make the team with Simone.

It depends.. If Suni wants AA, she will have to upgrade floor which is riskier given there's only a month left and she would need to bring back her double double and possibly do 4 passes which is a lot for her. If she wants to go to be a beam and bars specialist, it might be a bit wiser given her injuries to focus on those events, both of which she's capable of medaling in.

She won't rank that high if shilise is back on her game.
It’s really impressive how Suni isn’t even at full health yet but nearly took third place at nationals WITH A FALL! I can’t wait to see what she’ll do at Olympic trials and (hopefully) in Paris!
I love that Simone was there for her. She asked her and she supported. I big heart women supporting woen.

Alot more difficulty to come on floors for Suni. She's playing it safe as this is first time she's doing all-around (all 4 apparatuses) for a couple years. I have no doubt she will peak in time for Olympics.❤❤
GOOOO SUNI, honestly Simone may indeed be best, but to me, Suni is the epitome of graceful, and that's rare in USA gymnastics these days. I pray she's stays healthy, and keeps feeling and doing well! I also pray she gets to go to the olympics, and gets at least at least one bronze there!

Suni and Simone are two very DIFFERENT types of gymnast. Suni is supple elegance and Simone is power elegance and for this reason, neither could do what the other is best at and that is why I absolutely love them both. I want them both on the team for Paris and it looks more and more a sure thing.

The long lines and artistry-focused routines are out there. I believe the next era in USA women's gymnastics will be all about it. Look at Nola Matthews and Claire Pease, who will rise in the next season or two. Look at lovely Shilese, whose bars routine was truly missing at this championship, and her floor. (Really hopeful her shoulder responds to the care and rest so we can see her in Trials and Paris).

@@nightswimmer99 What has made the US the dominant force it has become over the years is a balanced composition with respect to style and strength of the team. Yes, a combination of the supple along with the power is why the US is where it is at today. I promise you, when Simone retires, many Americans will learn to appreciate what she brought to the sport because it is guaranteed they will not have such dominance again, at least not for a long while.

@@aliciamcdonald7105 Well, they'd be short sighted not to see what Simone brought to the table. I don't think the strength will go away; it was there before she arrived with all the girls doing Amanar vaults, etc. Yes, the Karolyi era had big issues and we can all be glad it's over, but the strength influence remains. Now that we've left the United States of Amanar and moved to the New Republic of Cheng, I believe we will see a shift towards the sort of strength and style combo that's made Suni and Shilese top performers, and was effective for Morgan Hurd as well.
Absolutely love Suni, and i love how she showed how she can still have a misstep and put it in the back of her mind and move on to killing it on her other events. That's the kind of athlete we need on the team, and that 14.9 beam!!! Amazing!!
That beam routine is next level. She's doing great and will peak at the Olympics IMO.
Sooo pretty in red color, this make up 💋💄 Queen of bars and beam, so elegant and powerfull 2:17 Suni and Simone ☺️
Go have fun in Paris Suni! We'll rooting for you!
Beam Queen, Bars Queen ❤✨
She is one of the gymnasts that I love to watch. So elegant and graceful... Her leos are always so beautiful too. This one is on the top of the list with the green leo!! I know Suni will do just fine at trials. I will continue to say, "She's the definition of NEVER GIVE UP."
Imagine how she could’ve scored if she didn’t fall and didn’t water down her bars. If she keeps this up, she’ll be on the team and will be able to place in the top 4 even with Shilese at trials. It’ll really come down to who hits and who chokes at trials, and I’m hoping that for Suni, she’ll hit everything. The team needs her for bars and beam
Goooo, Suni!
The first time she had to wait a whole additional year to get on the Olympic stage; the second time her body betrayed her. You can't choose your moment in sports. I can't even imagine the kind of focus, drive, and sheer mental toughness needed to finish as high as she did. Not 100% just yet, but momentum is on her side. Looking forward to an inspirational trials!

Back to back gold in the all around is a lot to ask for.

Traducir texto con tu cámara I think their obstacle is the trials. After this, if she manages to be chosen, she has 3 weeks to obtain the peak similar to the one she had in Tokyo. Therefore I am praying that she has good trials and we see her in the team and in (AA). She is the best American artistic gymnast my eyes have seen since Nasthia Liukin.
yall better watch out for suni at trials i told you to never sleep on her. 4th place AFTER a fall, and not even competing her full all around difficulty?! she’s def in great shape and can contend for a spot on the team and an all around spot
