Gymnastics World Championships 2022 Preview
The 2022 Gymnastics World Championships are airing throughout the first week of November on Peacock, NBC, and the NBC Sports app.
The qualifying rounds for the World Gymnastics Championships in Liverpool, England, took place on Saturday, October 29, Sunday, October 30 and Monday, October 31.
The schedule for the 2022 Gymnastics World Championships finals is as follows:
Tuesday, November 1: Women’s team final
Wednesday, November 2: Men’s team final
Thursday, November 3: Women’s all-around
Friday, November 4: Men’s all-around
Saturday, November 5: Apparatus finals (men’s floor exercise, pommel horse, still rings; women’s vault, uneven bars)
Sunday, November 6: Apparatus finals (men’s vault, parallel bars, high bar; women’s balance beam, floor exercise)
It is the first time in 10 years the U.S. women’s team will be without Simone Biles. Suni Lee, the women’s all-around winner from the 2021 Summer Olympics, is also sitting out this year.
Instead, the women who will be representing the U.S. are Shilese Jones, Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey, Leanne Wong, and Skye Blakely. The women will be gunning for first place, while the men’s team will be battling for third with Great Britain (because the top two spots will almost assuredly go to China and Japan). The men’s team representatives include Brody Malone, Donnell Whittenburg, Stephen Nedoroscik, Asher Hong and Colt Walker. The top three men’s and women’s teams at Worlds will earn five-member team berths to the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris, France.
After the U.S. championships, Chiles tweeted, “Welp!! After trying 4 times to make a worlds team my time is finally now!!! Words can’t explain how happy I am right now!! Thank you to everyone for all the love and support and see y’all in LIVERPOOL.”
In an interview with Inside Gymnastics Magazine, Jones said that it felt “absolutely amazing” to come out and nail her routines at the U.S. championships.
“Absolutely amazing … I’ve been wanting to showcase and hit it four for four so far and so far everything’s gone great,” said Jones, adding, “Definitely bars [was my best routine]. I’ve been trying to hit a perfection bar routine, I’m all about perfection, especially my bar routine, so it felt great to get out there and hit my bar routine tonight.”
Jones added in an interview with NBC Sports about qualifying for worlds, “Awesome. It feels amazing. This has been my biggest dream for a long time now and my biggest goal since I came back, so I’m just excited.”
The 2022 Gymnastics World Championships take place Saturday, October 29 through Sunday, November 5 on Peacock, NBC, and the NBC Sports App.
