Some Stats from Qualifications

I'm watching the MAG team final and don't really understand anything that's going on, everybody is landing stuff with their chest at knee-level but calling it a good routine, Russia is leading, Ukraine is not even trying and Kohei just took off his shorts. Wild.

But I counted yesterday's execution averages from WAG qualifications to have a better look at the scores and compare them between subdivisions. Click on the images to make them larger.





If you look at the individual gymnasts' scores, you can see that they go up a bit almost every subdivision, but there's only just over a tenth between the best and worst subdivision. When it comes to the teams, the teams from subdivision 4 (NED and USA) head the rankings. USA was the only team that didn't have any falls, so it makes sense that they scored well, Netherlands had one fall. The Brits are last, mostly thanks to Fragapane who scored several 6s.

But I think China was definitely lowballed. They had good beam and bars rotations with no falls, but their execution is super low compared to others. Belgium too. The floor scores also definitely went up quite a bit between subdivisions.

I don't know... Make of it what you will.
