My Top 20 Favorite Gymnastics Beam Routines
6. Liu Xuan - CHN - 2000 Olympics - Event Finals
I really like this routine. Liu Xuan went to the Olympics in Atlanta, then was put on the team in Sydney for her experience. Two of her teammates had already medaled on bars. This was her last shot for an individual medal of her own, and it was a gold one.
