In the wake of US gymnasts Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin receiving poor scores on questionable routines compared to Chinese gymnasts, a conspiracy seems to exist. Multiple times the Chinese gymnasts have not been punished for less-than-great routines compared to Johnson and Liukin.
Absolutely, some of the things that have happened are blatant.
one thing that is mentioned by TV analysts that was a good point- judges from countries such as South Africa, Bulgaria, Australia, etc cant judge well because they are not used to seeing great gymnastics and do not know it when they see it
no doubt. no doubt. chinese gymnasts are getting the benefit of the doubt. How else can you explain the inconsistent scoring?- Freddie Footballer
