Work and study has been keeping me busy. I apologize profusely. 

Kyla Ross dominated on the first day of Women's Qualifications at the 2013 World Championships in Antwerp, Belgium. With some big names still to come, Ross leads the All Around over China's YAO Jinnan and Venezuelan Jessica Brizeida Lopez Arocha. The People's Democratic Republic of Korea's HONG Un Jong currently holds top place on the Vault standings over Japan's Mai Murakami and Israel's Ofir Nezer. Jinnan is at the top of the Uneven Bars standings, followed by Ross and HUANG Huidan (China), whilst on the Balance Beam, Ross leads over Russian Anna Rodionova and Jinnan. On Floor Exercise, Mai Murakami is currently on top of the Floor Exercise standings with Ross and Venezuelan Jessica Brizeida Lopez Arocha rounding out the top three.

After all five subdivisions, it was Simone Biles of the United States who topped the All Around qualification over compatriot Kyla Ross and China's YAO Jinnan. A special shout out to McKayla Maroney who finished in sixth place (after qualification where only two per country moved on). McKayla's great form after the selection trial meant that she competed on all four events. McKayla Maroney qualified highest to the Vault final, with her average topping that of Biles and HONG Un Jong (PRK). China's YAO Jinnan dominated on the Uneven Bars, with Ross and Huidan rounded out the top three qualifiers. Romanian Larisa Andreea Iordache dominated the qualification on the Balance Beam over China's SHANG Chunsong and Ross. Biles topped the Floor Exercise qualification over Romanians Sandra Raluca Izbasa and Iordache.
