I believe the Olympic Games will suffer without the best gymnasts in the world competing. If anything, an all around medal at worlds should directly qualify one to the games before an event medalist. Please reconsider this oversight and let the best battle it out in Rio. Thanks.

It's an injustice to have an all around medalist from last years world champs not at the Olympic Games. Please change this

AA is an event unto itself and therefore she qualified as an "event" medalist.

All AA medalists at the 2015 World Championships deserve to go to Rio!

This is not only a disservice to Larisa, it is a disservice to all gymnasts and fans of the sport. This wrong must be righted.

Larisa Iordache deserves to go to the Olympics. As the article says, she's a complete gymnast, not as the others who are only one of the best in one event. So if the FIG is allowing the event specialist to attend to the Olympics, the should also give Iordache the opportunity to compete.

It belongs to the Roumanien federation to sent a gymnast to the Olympics ... Wether Iordache or Ponor or ...Someone else ...
