She has a case of the 'twisties,' something about which every gymnast seems to know; it is a loss of awareness of where a gymnast is in the air, and it could be seen in her very first floor exercise, where she didn't just step out of bounds, but got completely off the pad. She just didn't know where she was. She cut back her vault from a 2½ to a 1½, and even though she landed on her feet, it was a poor landing. Can you imagine being 12 feet in the air and not knowing where the ground was?<br /><br />Why is she still there? I would imagine her transportation back to the United States was already arranged, and paid for, for after the closing ceremony, like every other athlete's is. More, we expect injured football players to be on the sidelines, even when it's bitterly cold and snowing, to remain part of the team, and support the team. That's what Miss Biles is doing.
