Ok, all will not be right in the gymnastic world until Romania is re-established as a consistent contender for the podium, individually, and as a team. I said what I said.
So sweet but very mature too. I loved that she said she needs to work hard to be first. That shows ambition. And saying that she could do better bit this is a start and you have to start somewhere. So mature. I also loved that she tried to answer in English, not assuming, what a doll.
it must have been hard for her being so young at her first worlds to go alone with no teammates! but she did so well and hopefully next time will have the support of a team!
She sold her floor routine and smiled so much throughout. She has an amazing attitude and it shows in her gymnastics -- she has added many new skills and has slowly increased her difficulty.
