Brazil's Jade Barbosa earns highest vault score

After the first rotation, Jade Barbosa lead the women's all-around competition after nailing a difficult vaulting pass earning her the highest score awarded that day on the vault for women. With solid performances from Shawn Johnson (USA), Vanessa Ferrari (ITA) and Steliana Nistor (ROM), and a fall for Barbosa on a tumbling pass during her floor exercise, Barbosa fell to tie for bronze with Italy's Vanessa Ferrari.

@CassidyMcComb2010 She had a stress injury on her wrist in 2008. That's why she had a weak performance in Beijing and came back competing in December 2009. Now she's a healthier gymnast, but she won't have the same level again.

@danielcnsilva

what happened to her?

she reminds me of aly raisman

[MrWestudent]

I like how the commentator (I think it's tasha schwiekert?  and sorry I spelled that wrong) acknowledges that although there was a step her vault was super hard. All the other commentators just acknowledge that there was a deduction.

i love how she steps out of bounds and still everyone is amazed and its still a huge score

She's qualified in third place for the vault finals at this year's world championships!

She's back to Brazil's team senior, guys! I just don't know she'll be in Wolrds Champs (Nederlands). I hope so!
