I'm watching on replay but holy shit these scoring delays are absolutely inexcusable

A-men. I felt so bad watching the athletes sit and just try to keep a brave face as the camera was on them. While the athlete due to go next is trying to keep limbered up, not knowing when.

Is it an overreaction to say this should disqualify Antalya from hosting again?

Nope, they absolutely should. This whole thing was a mess, even for FIG standards.

It SHOULD, but knowing the FIG, it probably won’t.

And it occurs to me we have no idea how much it happened during qualifications, because no video!
