Ok it is obvious that China's superstar, He Kexin is underage. And even if I do disagree with the age requirements, and that China is cheating, it makes me so frustrated that FIG isn't doing a thing about this. I mean think He Kexin is similar to Nastia Liukin, Liukin had a pretty good chance of medaling in Athen's. But wasn't old enough, but imagine if we had said she was 16, and then what? Do you think we would have come home with a Gold Medal instead of Silver?
Seconly He Kexin is an amazing gymnast! And I don't want people looking down at her because she is underage, it's not her fault. It's pretty hard to say to your coach "I'm not going to help China win gold because that would be cheating..." So please don't look down on the little girls.
And speaking of little girls, when He Kexin fell, I felt horrible for her. I mean she is 14 and she has the weight of China on her back. That poor thing, there is probably no 14 year old in USA that has to deal with that kinda pressure.
