I was really surprised about the depth of Russia at their recent championships. Obviously the USA are still way ahead, but I am feeling more optimistic regarding the amount of girls that could contribute in TF. Here is my comparison:
USA
Main contenders: Biles, Douglas, Nichols, Raisman
Possible contributors: Kocian UB, Locklear UB, Smith BB/FX, Hernandez BB/FX
Russia
Main contenders: Mustafina, Komova, Afan, Paseka
Possible contributors: Spiridonova UB, Kapitonova UB, Melnikova VT/UB/BB/FX, Tutkhalyan BB/FX, Karenkova BB/FX
Do Russia actually have four possible UB Olympic Champions?
I am sure I am probably missing out some US girls, and consistency is another matter. What do you think? I am not the most knowledgable, so please discuss.
Are Russia nearing the depth of the USA?
