A couple reminders
1. Please do not post copyrighted stories to Gymn. This
includes AP,
Reuters, and other news wires. Results are different because
... well, they're results, hard facts. Their use is protected under
the fair use clause of copyright law. Anything beyond that, just
write a short summary of the article and post the summary to
Gymn.
2. Do not include results from
televised meets in the subject of a msg
to Gymn. Many Gymners
want to watch the Worlds on TV without knowing
the
winner until the last routine. Use
generic subjects like "WORLDS:
Event Finals" so that those
wishing to avoid the "spoiler" can just
delete
the msg.
Thanks,
Rachele

Women's Gymnastics-book
As most of you know, my dad is in San
Francisco. He wants to buy me this
book, Women's
Gymnastics or something. Has anyone read it? What is it like?
Thanx,

What did Amanda Borden do? Injury-wise.
I thought Sabae was the qualifying comp. for
Atlanta. Does this mean if you
don't go to Sabae you can't go to the Olympics? I hope not for
Dawes,
Borden, Chow, etc.

Helen, there are lots of books that have the words
"Women's
Gymnastics" in the title. Do you have any more specifics?

Amanda has a broken toe.
Sabae is the qualifying competition for countries. If a country is in
the top twelve, then they have qualified to Atlanta. Countries ranked
13th through 18th
have earned the privilege of sending individuals to
the
Olympics.
As far as who is ON the teams, that is up the the selectoin procedures
of each nation.
So Dawes, Borden, and Chow are by no means shut out
of the USA Olympic team.

When

called the Shilo Inn. Very reasonable and very nice (something

$59/night). Have fun.

Re: Worlds
Sabae is the qualifier for the
team -- all of the countries that have a
team make
it in the top 12 will be able to send a team to represent them at
the olympics -- After that you
have to be in the top 35 individuals and not
have
your team (country) make it, then you (the individual) may represent
your country in the olympics.
hope that helps

l'Equipe Predictions
From a short article in
Monday's _l'Equipe_:
The author (Richard Montaignac) really likes the Chinese teams and thinks
that both the men and women will win a team medal. For the men, RUS and
CHN will battle
for the gold, while the ROM women have a slight advantage
over CHN and others.
He thinks that Amanar will win the AA,
followed by
Khorkina, Mo Huilan,
and Gogean.
"Miller, the current world champion,
seems
today to be on the way out."
His predictions for the top 6 men are
-- in
no particular order -- Misutin, Shabaev,
Li Xiaoshuang,
Korobchinsky,
and Nemov.
"The top 6 doesn't include Scherbo, who
is too
fat to make it into the top
group."
TV note:
France 2 TV will broadcast from Sabae at 3:40
PM on Saturday,
and France 3 TV will have coverage
on Sunday at 2 PM...

WORLDS: women day 2
From the AP, the ROM women scored 192.570, which puts them in front of
the
USA. CHN (190.819) is currently in
3rd.
Gogean's comp. total is 38.799 (including
9.875 on FX) to lead at this
point. Milosovici
(38.65) is in 4th. Boginskaya (!!) has 38.012 and is
in
11th now. Meng
Fei (CHN) fell on UB and again on her B mount.

British competitors
Hi!
Thanks Rachele
for all your hard work in providing the results
from
Sabae.
Just one question - where are the Brits?! Have
they not
competed yet, or are they just doing so
badly that no-one's
mentioning them?!
Also,
does anyone over here know whether BBC or ITV are planning to
screen ANY of it, even in highlights? Or even the satellite
channels?
It seems really stupid to me that despite Neil Thomas'
previous
successes, and the women's team making
steady progress, not to
mention the good ratings
that gym on TV always gets, no-one seems to
be
screening it .. I hope someone can prove me wrong!

Thanks to USAG for sending them to me!
Brits: Both teams are
competing on day 3.
I will provide as much detail as I have about the
American, British,
Canadian, and Australian teams for men and women, since
there are a
significant number of Gymn subscribers in those countries. Also I will
provide details of the top teams (naturally)
If
anyone wants info on a particular competitor or country that are
not one of the above, then please let me know via direct
email about
your interest. If it's not too overwhelming for me, I
will
"spotlight" additional
teams/people. But remember, I do
have a
full-time job so I may not be able to

The Brits, along with a few others such as

are competing today.

As far as I
know, the BBC aren't showing any. ITV hadn't
shown
any gym for years. The reason I 've been was
because the FIG
had raised the price for
gymnastics TV coverages and they don't
think it's worth it anymore. But who knows, if our British
team
do really well, you may still yet see some
highlights on
Grandstand or something.
The
German satellite channel DSF *are* showing it, in fact,
they're
showing it live and have devoted over * 32 hours *
of
airtime broadcasting the event. This includes live broadcast
in early mornings plus evening highlight programmes.
you will
find DSF on
channel 21 on the "normal" satellite receivers, or
to be more exact on frequency 11523 H.
Here is the
DSF schedule for the Sabae Worlds coverage as
listed
in "TV and Satellite Weekly"
magazine:
Fri 6th October:
08:30 to 13:30
22:00 to 23:00
Sat
7th October:
00:55 to 01:55
07:25 to 13:30
20:00 to 22:00
Sun
8th October:
06:00 to 09:00
20:00 to 22:00
Mon 9th
October:
07:00 to 10:00
20:00 to 21:15
Tue 10th October:
06:30
to 09:30
16:00 to 17:00
23:00 to 00:00
There are additional
broadcasts after the 10th October, but I guess
they
are just repeated showings.
Happy viewing.
