2022 European championships: 4th place for Lisa Vaelen in the vault final

Today was the last day of women's competition at the European Championships in Munich. Lisa Vaelen qualified for the vault final and finished 4th.

Lisa was the last gymnast to compete in a vault final plagued with injuries. Both Asia D'Amato and Valentina Georgieva went down and needed medical treament. This resulted in a quite long delay and extra warming up time for the three last gymnast to go. 

Zsofia Kovacs from Hungary won the gold medal with a score of 13,933. She performed a neat double twisting yourchenko and a handspring front layout with half twist. Asia D'Amato won the silver medal, despite her injury with a score of 13,716. Aline Friess performed exaclty the same vault as our Belgian Lisa Vaelen: a handspring followed by a summersault with one and a half twist and a yourchenko with full twist. Aline scored 0.016 more than Lisa Vaelen.
