Rotation 1 of the Women’s Team Final featured a matchup between Team USA and Italy. Jordan Chiles opened the event with a solid performance, earning 14.400, followed by Jade Carey’s impressive 14.800.
When Biles took to the vault, showcasing her enormous expertise and seizing an opportunity for redemption, she scored an astounding 14.900. This marked the highest score of Rotation 1, and as the competition progressed, no gymnast managed to equal or surpass the American’s vault score.
During Rotation 4, the vault competition shifted to Team Brazil and China, with both teams initially scoring lower than the Team USA gymnasts. However, everything changed when Rebeca Andrade achieved one of her own career-best performances, scoring an exceptional 15.100.
