Whilst Europe's olympic contender's are measuring up in Brussels, the Chinese national championships are taking place and will form a big part of the olympic team selection. World all-around medallist Yao Jinnan has been forced to sit out the championships after she had a minor knee injury on vault training just before the event began.
Unnoficial, fan-reported scores have kindly been reported by new chinese gymnastics blog Blossom, Chinese Gymnastics Flowers. The scores are someahat lower than what we have come to expect from the chinese, particularly on bars and floor, but it seems the team strategy is to protect injuries and carry on building gradually until the olympics.
