  • Round-Up: Medals Dominated by China And
    Round-up: Medals dominated by China and USA China and the USA dominated the Artistic Gymnastics events at the Olympic Games after strong performances throughout the competition. Gabrielle Douglas of the United States competes in the Artistic Gymnastics women's Uneven Bars Gabrielle Douglas competing for Gold in the women's Uneven Bars China's men successfully defended their Team title from the Beijing 2008 Games, while Zou Kai retained his still Rings crown and Feng Zhe won his first Individual gold on the Parallel Bars. In the women's event, China's Deng Linlin won gold on the Beam ahead of team-mate Sui Lu who won silver - the only one-two finish in Gymnastics at the Games. China's men finished below Great Britain in qualification but went on to win gold in the men's event ahead of Japan, who matched their efforts in Beijing to win silver, with Britain earning bronze. Zhang Chenglong, a member of the victorious Chinese team, said: 'Many people ask me about it being my first Olympic Games, but the opponents in other tournaments are the same as in the Olympics. Our rivals were not as strong as they had been in previous years so we kept a cool mind.' Feng added: 'We don't have any faults. That is the way to succeed and beat the Japanese and everyone else.' The USA women's squad were crowned champions in the Team event for the first time since 1996, while Gabrielle Douglas won Individual All-Around gold andAlexandra Raisman claimed the Floor title.

  • Women's Gymnastic Scoring
    Women’s gymnastic scoring In gymnastics a perfect score used to be a 10. A young Rumanian woman, Nadia Comaneci, was the first Olympic gymnast to score a 10 on any event in gymnastics. She competed in 1976 and her routine was flawless. (We have a video of her performance at our site: http://www.yummymath.com/2012/perfect-10/ In 2005 the scoring of gymnastics was changed and in 2009 that scoring was revised. Ten is no longer a perfect score. So how will gymnasts be scored at this year’s Olympics? Beware; this is a very simplified summary of the new scoring for women’s artistic gymnastics. Each contestant will receive 2 scores for each routine ... a D-score and an E-score. The D-score (or Difficulty score) evaluates the content of the exercise on three criteria: the Difficulty Value (DV), Composition Requirements (CR) and Connection Value (CV). • DV: The difficulty value of the eight highest value elements of the routine, including the dismount, is added together. Elements are ranked depending on their difficulty. Each element in a routine has a point value based on its difficulty, starting at zero and increasing by one-tenth for each subsequent level. Therefore, an “A” level skill is given a point value of one-tenth whereas an “E” level skill has a point value of five-tenths. • CR: Gymnasts must demonstrate skills from five required Element Groups on each apparatus. A gymnast may use skills to fulfill the DV and the CR simultaneously. For each CR presented, 0.5 points are awarded.
