@grace4nan everyone on Reddit knows that the Linchpin is the answer

@grace4nan She should retire and focus on IG. She’s washed

 

[godsknightdavid]

@grace4nan She changes coaches every year.

 

[neonm]

@grace4nan She should go to Comptrain. That will solve it

 

[shiga]

@grace4nan Whose left that she hasn't worked with?

 

[kmoreno]

@shiga This 100%

 

[rob3rt]

@grace4nan Again? Lol

@jonjones229 It looks like going into this last event the top 10 women are all pretty locked in with the last spot being the only one in contention. 11th-15th are only separated by 11 points. The next to last heat will be very interesting to watch.

@rollover Its remarkably close and is going to be fun!

I hope Dahlstrom makes it, but hoping Muir makes it too.

@throwaway Europe's semi final, more than any, is showing the programming's bias towards the bigger, heavier athlete.

People like Dahlstrom are struggling whilst Shorunke looks like making it.

@jonjones229 Laura winning the HSPU workout and almost beating DBE’s event record, amazing! This one was for all her haters!

 

[grace4nan]

@shefmasurj I'm not sure there are a lot of actual haters, she does have holes, but this one was executed masterfully, it was a beut!

 

[silentjohn]

@grace4nan No one hates Horvath. At all. This sub is just weirdly defensive of her when you point out anything that isn’t glowing praise

 

[tennesseegirl1993]

@jonjones229 Absolutely appalling judging in Berlin. They seemed to be calling no reps for depth almost at random on the overhead squats. Particularly feel for Karin Frey who got no repped on her last rep, which was ATG just like all her others. Amateur ad always.

@tennesseegirl1993 Laura horvath did 6 of 10 OHS with a foot outside the line and wasn’t no repped once but Michael Smith touched the line on his max snatch by a millimeter and was no repped. Shocking

 

[sanjaya1984]

@tennesseegirl1993 Judging has been good in my opinion from what I’ve seen

 

[tennesseegirl1993]

@sanjaya1984 Did you watch that heat

 

[be_a_light]

@tennesseegirl1993 I saw it live from the stands. I don’t remember the exact situation but I remember thinking it was a fair call at the time.

 

[shefmasurj]

@tennesseegirl1993 To be fair I think she got no repped on her last rep not for lacking depth but because she walked the bar outside out of the white box.
