How does a grip rip like that? (I am not a gymnast). Does anyone know if she got to go back up and finish? Someone told me she broke her hand here...is that true as well?

@Stonymypony When she overshot her hand and it hit the low bar on her transitional skill it twisted the grip and ripped it. It was reported that she broke a couple of fingers which is why she stop in the middle of her routine and did not finish.

yeah, this was unfortunate. she was in line to win the AA and a couple of golds in EFs. but after the team competition, seems like flukes and tiny mistakes kept creeping in. kinda like dawes at 1994 worlds.

this was not her championships.... so sad.

Wow, what composure!

In IG they reported she broke a couple of fingers.

[larsmonty]

she definitely broke her hand or fingers

[caramelcreamsauce]

Poor poor poor girl!

[caramelcreamsauce]

Gosh anyways, I would have given her the win without the fall.

[larsmonty]

she actually broker her hand very badly. No-one should compete on broken bones. I think she took it very well. If it wasme I would be in tears. She is very brave

[maxy7792]

shes a skank i mean she doesnt even get back up to finish the rutine, she is just a soar loser

[larsmonty]

she broke her hand

[saltlakecity2002]

She broke her grip, not her hand.

[snofagun1814]

nope they confirmed that she did break a couple fingers

[gymnasticsloverxoxo]

How could she grip the bars with a broken hand/fingers?

[whipback]

Who is that she talks to when she gets off of the podium? Kalinina?

[chitownslygirl]

yes

When you listen to the video of the 1992 EF on bars, Kathy says she's broking her fingers there! Doesn't look like it! ;)

[rfillangi]

I believe she dis located them.
