Katelyn Ohashi faces uncertainty for U.S. Championships bid
Summary

USA Gymnastics has confirmed no petitions have been received for the upcoming U.S. Championships, scheduled for August 6-9 in Phoenix. Katelyn Ohashi, a notable competitor who narrowly missed the qualification score at the U.S. Classic, is among those facing a potential absence from the event. Despite her impressive performance at the Classic, Ohashi fell short of the necessary score by nearly four-tenths. Although she has not officially been eliminated, the absence of petitions casts doubt on her participation. Looking ahead, USA Gymnastics will announce the U.S. National Team following the Championships, with selections for the World Championships expected later this fall.
