Watching Brenna Dowell's UB mistake makes me really sad because you know its pretty much the end of her Rio dreams. Who were the other athletes belong to this group?
1. Larson- pretty awesome showing at the 2010 US champs that gave her ticket to worlds. I think I read somewhere that Marta didnt want to use her in floor for the team finals but was outvoted by other coaches. I cant recall if she made an error during the TQ that made Martha doubt on her. Her fall and missing a required element on floor pretty much cost USA the Gold(Russia also counted 2 falls from Nabieva). I cant recall how she did during the 2012 US olmypic Trials(she could have redeemed herself).
2. Dowell- lots of people were surprised when she was included on the roster since she was never consistent in UB anyway. People knew that her UB routine outcome will seal her fate in Rio but ofcourse she bombed and pretty much everyone is conviced that she is done. Can she redeem her self? I think if she gets back her Amanar and continue to be useable on UB and floor she has 40% of making the Rio team.
3. Pavlova- Alexandrov made it clear that she doesnt want any of the older girls on the team and needs to build russia with the younger girls(Aliya's group). Pavlova wasnt totally useless in fact she won several vault titles under Alexandrov and was useful on beam and floor but her inconsistency didnt sit well with Alexandrov. And ofcourse she injured her knee.
4. Koko Tsurumi- She wasnt really blacklisted but her rumored disagreements with then Ukranian head coach put her on a bad position on the national team. At one time it was rumored she didnt even had motivation to continue.
5. Yesenia Ferrera- Rumor say that she is blacklisted in the cuban team although she also injured her knee that could explain her disappearance.
6. Hong Su Jong- After the age scandal she literally went MIA. who knows if she is still alive.
7. Catalina Ponor and some romanian girls- Didnt Ponor had a disagreement with some romanian coaches before? Obviously she was too good for them to ban her
