Nastia Liukin comeback 2011, fill in USA women's uneven bars event weakness
Sounds like Nastia Liukin is probably going to do a comeback...she already started with floor music chosen and some spins around the bars - video from her iphone was on "Around The Gym" on Universal Sports TV. And she talks very fondly of the USA program, Marta Karolyi and her support for the girls, the gymnastics camps, defends the USA women's training methods and that they are not over-training - when offered as an explanation by John Rothlesburger and Tim Daggett for all the injuries around major competitions. Nastia said she'll probably make a decision around January next year. The USA women's team did have a weakness on the uneven bars during team finals/qualifications - and bars is her best event - tie score for 1st in 2008 Beijing Olympics with He Kexin. There's an open door for her there like there was for Alicia Sacramone and vault. Sounds like Nastia would still go for the all-around though. Open door on the men's USA team for the Hamms on pommel horse.
