    Trivia: She's one of those all-around champions and also an event champion in the same edition of olympic competition. The other was nadia comaneci in 1976 and the other was simone biles in 2016 and also larisa latynina 1956, lilia was in 1996. It's also a bit odd that these olympic years all end in 6.

      People still very much recognize her for her floor routine and for the AA gold she won. Romania was the only one being recognized for a long period of time, along with Russia. Now that the US has become a real world power in the sport everyone seems to have an issue. Gymnastics is more than just a European sport!!

      Dance is an individual and interpretative concept. It’s not just limited to ballet. If you’re so enamored of ballet- go watch that!! The floor routines of today have their own unique qualities and individual styles, no need to demean them in favor of being a ballet performer.

    This was a great routine. Her excellent dance skills gave her the edge. I think Amanar had a much more difficult routine. Her tumbling passes were in a league of their own. However, Amanar had dismal artistry which cost her the title. In my own personal scoring, I gave Lilia a 9.918 and Simona a 9.912.
