@sam Dipa Karmakar has no chance of qualifying for Finals. Still two more qualification rounds are to be played. American Gymnasts will perform. only then final list will be made. She is already 6th.
Deepika Kumari & Laxmi Majhi let's us down.... or else we could have won atleast silver medal in this team event...
main hurdle is Korea and we are lucky to have draw with Russia and we didn't utilized it...
I might be sounding pessimistic but now winning medal in individual event is pretty much difficult... I mean we seeded 20,24 & 43 and definitely need to face Korean opponents prior to SF event... all 3 Korean players seeded 1,2,3...
however slim chances are there for Deepika Kumari if she can handle pressure... And I wish all the best for all 3 participants and mainly to Bombayla Devi
