YOG Event Finals - Women's Floor

There was a new queen in women's gymnastics this evening as Tan Sixin picked up a second gold medal. Sexin showed that no matter how much the americans may complain about it - it is possible for slight, female gymnasts to stick their tumbling passes.

Komova got up on the floor for a chance to regain her crown. She had a low landing on her first tumbling pass - a double arabian. Gold now seemed out of reach - could she hang on to silver?


In an amusing incident - after completing her routine- Tan Sixin got out her camera to film Komova!


Last up was the chance for Romania's littlest star- Diana Bulimar. The tiny bulimar tumbled and danced her heart out and pipped Komova for second place. On recieving her score her coach then picked her up onto the podium again as the arena sang happy birthday to her! Quite the present for this talented one.


So the final podium of the women's competition may not look quite as expected.
