Olympic Women's Gymnastics 2012 Day 2 Results: Qualifiers, Medal Hopefuls & More

The United States women's gymnastics team was dominant in qualifying action Sunday at the 2012 Olympics. However, they were so dominant that Jordyn Wieber failed to qualify for the all-around competition. 

Wieber, one of the favorites to bring home the all-around gold, finished fourth in the all-around qualifications. The problem is that just two members from each team can compete in that event, and Wieber was behind Aly Raisman and Gabrielle Douglas, who finished second and third respectively. 

While this has to be crushing for Wieber, it is a good sign for her team, who finished just ahead of Russia for the day. They were led by Viktoria Komova, who finished first in the all-around standings with 60.632 points.

Individual Apparatus Qualifiers 

Wieber did qualify to compete for an individual medal in the floor exercise by finishing sixth. This shockingly leaves Wieber with just one chance to win an individual gold, and considering she qualified sixth in that event, the odds are stacked against her to do that.

Outlook

The Americans are looking strong to take home the team gold, but that is certainly not a lock. In fact, it wouldn't be too big a shock if they didn't even medal as Russia, China and Romania all appear to be ready to take the top three spots at the tiniest of slips from Team USA. 

Raisman and Douglas certainly have a chance at all-around glory, but they are going to have to withstand the pressure that almost everyone assumed Wieber would be shouldering. 

With this many top competitors with so little separating them, it is impossible to predict who will win, but it is certainly easy to see that it is going to be a compelling battle to medal stand.
