The United States of America once again reigned supreme. Love the USA leotards. Stuck Yurchenko double for Gabby Douglas. Tears from a solid routine for Ruby Harrold. Great Amanar for Maggie Nichols. Such a powerful run up. Yet another INSANE Amanar from Simone Biles. Fall from Elissa Downie on the Uneven Bars who just missed catching her Tkatchev. Loved seeing Rebecca offering some words of encouragement to her sister. Italy's Enus Mariani came into the lineup to replace Vanessa Ferrari whose tendonitis has flared up - nerves showing with a fall on her turn with leg up. Solid routine from Elsabeth Black. Sensational routine from Rebecca Downie on bars. Love the Canadian leotards. The Russian leotard looks like something I would possibly expect to see from the U.S. Hop back on the DTY from Viktoriia Komova.

Loved the reaction from Brittany Rogers on the awesome DTY. Solid routine on Beam from Elissa Downie. Massive vault from Elsabeth Black. Gorgeous routine from Madison Kocian.

The top eight Women's Teams from the Qualification took to the Competition Arena at the Guangxi Sports Center Gymnasium. Here is my recap from last night's competition: Loving the Red leotards with detailing on them for the U.S.... very classy. Red leotard with sparkles for Russia as well. Love the patriot Romanian leotard and the purple? from the ladies from Great Britain. Have always loved the Italian leotard they are wearing this evening. Fabulous start from Kyla Ross, just a hop forward. Solid Bars from Russian Daria Spiridonova. Massive vault from Simone Biles. Italian Vanessa Ferrari was rock solid on Beam. Solid routine from Aliya Mustafina - she looks exhausted though? Love the detailing on the Chinese leo. I love Ruby Harrold on Bars. Wow the Japanese leotard is very colourful. Fall for Asuka Teramoto on the Beam. Yayyy we get to see Larrissa Miller on Floor!! Gorgeous routine. Such a shame about the final landing. After the first rotation the U.S. leads over Russia and China. A few bobbles from Hannah Whelan on the Beam. SHANG Chunsong falls on the Bars. Wonderful routine from HUANG Huidan.

The team from Greece consisted of Vasiliki Millousi, Magdalena Trichopoulou, Maria Simou and Myropi Christofilaki. Ferrari topped the Women's All Around qualification over team mate Giorgia Campana and Frenchwoman Valentine Sabatou. Vasiliki Millousi, who qualified fourth to the All Around final will not be participating in Sunday's All Around final, choosing to focus on the Event Finals.

Victoria Komova (RUSSIA) - Love the colors on this leotard but am not totally in love with the patterning. I don't know, it might just be me. (Image from Reuters)

Catalina Ponor (ROMANIA) - This is an interesting leotard design! I am not sure if I like the ribboning on the sleeves. (Image courtesy of Getty Images).

HUANG Qiushuang (CHINA) - I love this leotard. (Photo from Getty Images).

TEAM CANADA (Elsabeth Black, Dominique Pegg, Kristina Vaculik, Brittany Rogers, Victoria Moors) - My favorite leotard from the Team Final! (Image courtesy of Reuters)

Elizabeth Tweddle (GREAT BRITAIN) - Lovely leotard, very sleek. (Photo from Getty Images)

Erika Fasana (ITALY) - I am a huge fan of the Italian leotards of recent times, this being one of my favorite of theirs. 

Rie Tanaka (JAPAN) - Very patriotic and striking leotard.

How super exciting! Once again I will be doing live scores, however I may be a little late because of appointments. Competition starts at 4.30pm UTC. And we're off and racing! After the first rotation it is USA in the lead from China, and Russia with Canada in fourth. And after Subdivision 2 the top four remain the same! Disappointing score for Beth Tweddle on the Floor Exercise. Heading into the final rotation, it's still USA on top over Russia, with Romania moving into third. Horrid time for Grishina on Floor and for Afanasyeva too.

USA WINS THE TITLE!!!!!! Russia and Romania win silver and bronze respectively!!
