LONDON - Britain’s double Olympics gold-medal winning gymnast Max Whitlock believes the sport’s “confusing” scoring system could switch fans off and says new innovations should be considered.
Recent dad Whitlock was taking a break from his usual routine this weekend at the Superstars of Gymnastics event at London’s O2 Arena where, along with American superstar Simone Biles, he was thrilling crowds with an exhibition. Although it was not an official event, Whitlock, who with wife Leah celebrated the birth of daughter Willow this year, said it was a chance for gymnastics to engage with a wider audience and for the sport to try out new gimmicks.
Whitlock got 15.633 from the judges in Rio for his floor routine and while it was a magical moment he regrets that the perfect 10 is not possible these days.
