Ponor's Last Olympic Games: Devastating

    Catalina Ponor..... She has a glorious 2004 Olympics, pushing her team to the gold medal, winning the floor and beam gold in 2004. She was dominant, but she retired for a little bit, missing out in 2008. But she did come  back for 2012. But, she had some problems in qualifying, including a ton of balance checks on balance beam, bailing out a tumbling pass on floor. She also had a HUGE beyond HUGE balance check on beam on the finals, losing the bronze to Aly, who had a much better performance. Getting the bronze on D value above Cat. And on floor, it was obvious that Aly had the better routine, sticking every landing, and getting a massive (for floor at least) 15.600. Catalina followed that with a 15.200 floor routine. Giving Aly a 5/10 lead. So, Catalina lost everything.

1. She lost the team final gold medal to the Americans
2. She lost any hope of a beam medal to Aly Raisman
3. She lost her floor gold medal to Aly Raisman.



       I wish Catalina was still in the sport, she could have redeemed herself in Rio.

Who is WOGA's best shot at Olympic Stardom?

   So, WOGA was not represented at the 2012 Olympics. No WOGAans made it. But Valeri has been training some gymnasts. In My opinion, Katelyn Ohashi, newly dubbed senior is their best shot. Ohashi has experience on the international stage, she competed for the US, with Simone Biles, at the AT&T American Cup, and won it. She won over Simone Biles, National and Worlds Champion. When she vaulted, she had stellar form. And not to forget the beam, bars, and floor sets, which were just as good. She stuck every landing, while Simone fell off the beam, and had a sloppy landing on floor. I expect Ohashi to make the team, she is the best of the WOGA family. She has that international look that the judges would love. She has tight form, stellar look, and beautiful tumbling and skills, and not to mention her artistry level is through the roof! So, Katelyn, I guess I will see you in Rio.
