Gymnastics / Olympic Games: Ray Zapata wonders as an Olympic medal candidate

RAdderley Zapata nailed his last move, then exploded. He throws his arms into the air with force, bursting with joy. He had buried ghosts. Because they doubted when he landed in pars. Levy’s tear ended up being more serious leaving him affected in the preparation, and Zapata had to find himself again. But he’s a competitor , and After a magical exercise they earn the right to rise with medals. Once again. Without fail, it even ranks third in the soil rating.

Ray put on the Superman suit again. The one with the big nights. To lead Spain with soil means to believe in everything. Although the team, which was looking for the final with ahenko, failed after a beautiful floor, but failed to jump with a pony or in a horse with braces.

The magical Ray Zapata

Silver is in Tokyo (That medal even made him angry) I came out with all the pressure of being the last group and seeing all the competitors among the best. Who took the gold from him on Japanese territory, Israeli Dolgopyat, even the brutal performance of European gold medalist Jake Jarman, who scored 14.966 in his qualifying. In his group only the Italian Nicola Bartolini, the world champion in 2021, poses a danger. But autumn. A poorly closed reception contributed to irregularities, which even the fatal trio could not finish driving the audience crazy.

At the soiree of pars Percy there was only one star. Ray offered an exercise with 6300 difficulty points. Less than the two stars mentioned above, but in the Bord implementation it is represented. Solid on the diagonals, which minimizes the recoil as much as possible. Nailing down all his sequences to the 14600’s of note. Not only the final is worth it, but also the height with a medal because Jarman and the Filipino Yolo (14760) are the only ones who surpass him.

In the Practice, do not fall. Nor in his first move, similar to the first Tokyo final in which he throws a turn and a half and falls with a double mortal assembled. Not even in a spin and a half ATS with a double mortal in a tent. Not in a house brand, a double mortal is in a slab with double gyro. In addition, clave all receptions His note will even explode. An exercise worthy of the final.

The team shines… And they fall short

By teams, Spain’s belief of a brutal floor put him in sixth place. Not only Zapata and his artwork, for both Nestor Abad and Joel Plata exceeded the mark of 14,000 points. Above 8000 points in execution. This positive path will not be followed in the rest of the devices. Joel Plata made a good horizontal bar, even reclam Ms note. Runner-up Zapata returned to the Rings, received the final reception, but the number 13900 did not give the necessary push.

It won’t change the thing in the pony jump either. Zapata multiplies, but his jumps did not end with an exit. Nor those of Nicolau Meyer. And the impossible on the parallel bars did not come. Spain finished with a total of 241,294 points, in the final 12th place of qualification.
