The biggest surprise of these lineups is that 2008 Olympic and 2009 World uneven bars Champion He Kexin will not compete for China on uneven bars. He fell during the qualifying rounds, missing the individual event finals, so her time here in Tokyo is done. I attended the Chinese training session just a few moments ago and during the bars rotation, He was struggling on her jaeger mix grip combination and looked to be in pain from a leg/groin injury. 

Judging by these lineups, who do you think has the best shot at a medal?
