Man just got back from work - last time i checked bar was at 5.65. Sorry to see Sawano go out so early but heck two americans over 5.90 with giuseppe hot on their tails - can't wait to see the footage tonight

Having 2 american medals pretty much confirms that NBC will actually SHOW some vaults tonight eh?
