Cosy at the top.

Part way through the second day of qualification the team final looks to be shaping up for quite a battle. The top 3 teams are separated by less than a point.

1 RUS
234.521
2 CHN
233.778
3 USA
233.643

In the brutal scoring system of the team final (3 gymnasts compete and all 3 scores count) anything could happen to the order. Romania, GB and Australia are all close behind should the opportunity arise.

USA's Rebecca Bross and Aly Raisman currently sit 2nd and 3rd in the All Around behind Russian Aliya Mustafina. USA made several errors on floor so the event final is shaping up to be quite surprising, with Tweddle, Bross and Mattie Larson likely missing the cut.
