Gabby Douglas Fails to Medal During Women's Uneven Bars at 2016 Olympics

Adam WellsAug 14, 2016

Gabby Douglas, the 2012 Olympic women's all-around gold-medal winner, finished seventh in the uneven bars competition at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday.

Russia's Aliya Mustafina won gold, the United States' Madison Kocian took home silver and Germany's Sophie Scheder earned bronze.

โ€œWell, in my head I had pictured it a little bit differently,โ€ Douglas said after the event, via Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports. โ€œI think everybody does. You want to picture yourself on top and doing those routines and being amazing."

Douglas entered the Games looking to redeem herself after disappointing trials in July.

Leading into the Olympics, the 20-year-old acknowledged she was feeling pressure, per the Associated Press (via NBCOlympics.com): "Everyone makes mistakes, and after trials it was hard because there was a lot of negativity, but whatever. I feel like shutting it all the way [down], and I have to prove myself."

On Friday, Douglas talked about reacting to critics in the media and on social media.

"You really do have to be careful," Douglas said, per Eric Adelson of Yahoo Sports. "Even though you have to be you, have to be concerned with everyone else, because people are watching, looking up to you. You're in the public eye."

Though Douglas didn't succeed in her quest for an Olympic medal in the uneven bars, she had already brought home her second straight gold medal in the team event.
