"Our higher scores are correct, and the FIG WTC is underscoring gymnasts" is an interesting take on judging when the WTC literally writes and interprets the rules on how to score...
During a conversation about domestic overscoring I was told that many judges in the US see themselves as the elite of the judges of the world and that their scores are correct because judges from other feds don't see enough high level gymnastics and systematically underscore.

CAS has published their dismissal of Evangelia Trikomiti's appeal of her sanction for score manipulation at the 2024 European Championships. It's a master class in how many ways CAS can call you a liar.

Well, that was not Elena Colas' day, unfortunately - but still: She won silver. And I am very happy for Minamino Yume, who had the best and cleanest competition of the day and deserved to win today. 3rd places goes to Nishiyama Misa.

With Colas' UB desaster, she needs to improve her last two routines to still win this if Nishiyama hits her QF scores. This could be very close.

The CAS has ruled against multiple feds that had a blanket ban against Russian athletes recently, and ordered them to allow AINs under the IOC framework. So I expect Russia to file a case against European Gymnastics if they keep their ban, as they just did against the FIS' blanket ban.
