Jordyn Wieber to Represent USA in London Olympics
Although she didn't have a guaranteed spot on the team after falling below Gabby Douglas in Sunday's Olympic Trials, it was clear that Jordyn Wieber was a lock for the U.S. Women's Gymnastics team.
Douglas beat Wieber on Sunday by 0.1 points, securing a spot on the team without the worry or nerves of waiting for the committee to decide the rest of the team's fate.
Wieber and Douglas are joined by McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman, and Kyla Ross.
Nastia Liukin, who competed in the 2008 Summer Olympics, hoped to join the team in London. She had difficulty throughout the trails on her signature component - the uneven bars - struggling by falling and not sticking her dismounts.
The 2012 London Olympic Games begin July 27 and run through August 12.
