Breaking news - Anastasia Grishina injury

Anastasia Grishina fell to the ground after over rotating a triple twist on floor in the team final this morning.  She was stretchered off.

It seems that there is a problem with her left knee (dislocation?).  Her mother says she will need an MRI scan.  It will probably be days before anything will be confirmed.

Unpleasant echoes for the Russian team.  Unsurprisingly, Aliya Mustafina looked rather dispirited in her floor exercise, sitting down her double Arabian and taking a noticeable pause before resuming the exercise.  Before her exercise, right after Grishina's injury, the World Champion was seen to crouch by the podium, as if in tears ... An emotional moment for her in many ways.

Just keep hoping for the best, and think strong thoughts for Nastia and her teams.

NOTE CORRECTION FROM EARLIER EDITION - Grishina was injured during competition, not warm up.
