World Champion Gymnasts STRUGGLES To Make World Championship Team.. • Welcome back to Sports Dive. Here’s some news for you about the world championships team. Stephen Nedoroscik is the lone entrant at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships who already owns an individual world title, yet he might not make the five-man team for the world championships in two months. Last October, Nedoroscik rebounded from missing the Tokyo Olympics to become the first American to win a world title on a pommel horse (unbeknownst, he competed with a broken bone in his left hand that later put him in a cast for 10 weeks.) Nedoroscik is a specialist, focusing on just that one apparatus out of the six in men’s gymnastics. He will compete for a total of 90 seconds at nationals this week, bypassing floor exercise, high bar, parallel bars, still rings, and vault. • But this year, and this Olympic cycle is different. The 2024 Paris Games revert to the five-man and five-woman team formats from the Olympics in 2012 and 2016. The world championships for the next two years also have five-person teams, with no extra spots for American gymnasts to compete strictly in individual events. So Nedoroscik, who on Thursday solved a Rubik’s cube while waiting for his pommel horse score (15.693 points), must find a way to fit in the U.S. men’s team puzzle. “My [Olympic] path is going to be a little bit trickier,” said Nedoroscik, a Penn State electrical engineering grad who competes in Rec Specs out of comfort and superstition rather than a prescription (but forgot to bring them to last year’s worlds). “I have quite a good understanding of how well I need to do at competitions to make the meets I want to make.” After a selection camp this October, a committee will finalize the five-man world championships team. In related news, Brody Malone wasn’t satisfied after gapping the U.S. men’s gymnastics field by a record margin on the first night of the U.S. Championships. Mad about his opening still rings routine, Malone still tallied 88.942 points on the first of two nights of competition on Thursday. He leads by 3.462 points — shattering the record lead for one day in U.S. men’s history — over Asher Hong going into Saturday when national champions will be crowned. Malone, a 22-year-old Stanford standout, should cruise to a repeat U.S. all-around title. • #WorldGymnasticsChampion #WorldChampionships #Istherearoom • Related Videos: • Gymnastics World Championships Is OVER… But What REALLY Happened?! • • Gymnastics World Championships Is OVE... • Early World Championship Podium Predictions • • Early World Championship Podium Predi... • TEAM USA 2022 Worlds Prediction (August Update) • • TEAM USA 2022 Worlds Prediction (Augu...
