I think it is ridiculous the FIG would keep a worlds medalist from going to the olympics. She is more than deserving of going to the olympics. Furthermore, other worlds medalists were accepted. Unbelievable.

World championship placements determine the number of berths for the Olympics in figure skating and it works very well. (There is not a team element to this sport). A 1,2, or 3 place finish allows three entries for that country. 4-I believe 11th place send two skaters. All there rest send one skater to the Olympic Games. This allows representation from more high level athletes as well as allowing for the diversity of many countries being represented, even if the skill level is too low to be in the hunt for medals. Your top placing gymnasts at world championships deserve to represent their counties at the Olympics and ensure a more interesting competition to see who can defend their titles effectively.

Time to recognize the result that the 3rd place all around athlete at world championships should get an automatic spot at the Olympic Games even if their country doesn't have a strong team to support her there.

AA awards should be recognised for representation, all rounders should be rewarded for their hard work on EVERY apparatus above those specialising

A healthy Larissa Iordache belongs on the biggest world stage. With her, Romania qualifies as a team. Without her, unfortunately the team doesn't qualify.

Let Iordache compete. She's proven repeatedly how she's earned her place on the Olympic podium.

All around medalists deserve the same treatment as event medalists. Please change your policies FIG and grant her a place to compete in the Rio Olympics.
