Dipa Karmakars coach Bishweshwar Nandi believes that Sundays apparatus finals at the Rio Olympics is anyones game, given that the eight competitors start with a fresh slate.?Dipa had finished eighth in the qualifiers after scoring 14.850 points from her first two vaults, but Nandi is hopeful that Dipas past experience in Rio, including a gold medal at a test event in April, will give her an edge over the others.?We hope it [the Rio test gold event] will have an effect on her tomorrow, Nandi told ESPN. Of the eight in the final, the first two-three contenders are just exceptional and I cant claim that Dipa is better than them; these girls are very good.But the final competition of eight is a fresh slate. In the world championship, Simone Biles, who had been No.1 in the team and all-round event, finished the vault at No.3. The person who the stars favour on that particular day will take home a medal. My hope is that Dipa will do well.As a coach, I cannot say for sure she will take home a medal, but anything can happen. As a coach, what I can say is that each of the eight vault finalists are potential medalists. To be at an Olympic final is a very big achievement by itself.Dipas composed confidence and execution of the Produnova, the vault with the highest D-(for difficulty)-value in the womens vault, has become her signature move.At the qualifiers,?Dipa scored 15.100 in the Produnova (7 for difficulty + 8.1 for Execution) and 14.6 in the Zamolodchikova (6 for difficulty + 8.6 for execution). In fact, during qualification, she was the only gymnast to successfully attempt the Produnova.?Nandi revealed that Dipa would be attempting two vaults in the final - the Produnova, and the Tsukahara 720, which consists of a half turn off the springboard onto the vault table, then a push backwards.?We did a very serious practice. I told her that now that you are in the final, this is more serious and you have to try and sort out the errors you made in qualification, that is the aim of this practice, Nandi said.Try and get to do your routines better and we can get a better result. We have good feelings about it. We hope to do well in the final. We will try and do much better than what we have done in the previous round as well and hope that we will have a good result.I need to have her to do the Produnova a couple of times more. Before we came to the Olympics, we were able to practice the vault a lot at the great facilities given to us by SAI. And now no matter what people say, she is comfortable executing the Produnova vault. She is not afraid while doing it and she is able to execute it comfortably.The question on everyones mind is, does repeatedly practicing the Produnova take a physical toll on the body and knees??Its not like we talk to her about the load on her knees while doing the vault, Nandi explained.?Also, its not that it takes a lot away from her knees while performing this in practice in the run up to a competition. The stress is on the ankle and the back but she has practiced this so many times. Fortunately she is is far away from the impact of the vault being felt on either of those parts of the body at the moment.Nandi said that he was overall pleased with Dipas preparations for Rio, especially when pitted against the likes of Biles, who has been doing this for many years.?Gymnasts like Simone come from sports-developed countries which have very different training schedules from ours. They have four-yearly plans for the Olympics.Dipas schedule has been completely different, as she qualified in the Test event in April. In May we started the SAI camp, and we have done three months of good practice at IG stadium in Delhi for this Olympics. Ozzie Smith Cardinals Jersey . Gerald Green and Miles Plumlee?

LOUIS -- St. Thomas Pieters success on American soil has been such that you could be forgiven for thinking he would have a strong affection for the country.After spending formative sporting years at the University of Illinois, during which he won the 2012 NCAA individual title, the Belgian made his first big splash in the game as a record-breaking rookie at the Ryder Cup in Minnesota last week.But becoming the first European to score four points on debut in the biennial contest doesnt mean Pieters has taken a shine to the U.S., or will be joining the PGA Tour any time soon.We have talked about it a little bit, said the 24-year-olds friend Nicolas Colsaerts, another Belgian and the world No.124. I dont think he would want to be surrounded by Americans 365 days a year.People think that because he went to the U.S. that he only wants to play the PGA Tour, but he has shown at the Ryder Cup, with his shushing of the crowd [last Saturday] and the way he plays, that he doesnt like them that much.The years he was there were with [Illinois head coach] Mike Small were very precious and played an important role in his career.But I dont see him moving there and playing any time soon. He is happy living in Antwerp, where he has a life.Colsaerts may have reason to take a blinkered view about playing in America after aborting an attempt to combine playing on the PGA Tour and European Tour in 2014, having spent two difficult years trying to make an impact in the U.S.But Pieters has said he found adapting to life in Illinois difficult, becoming the only player Small has tutored to leave early and fail to graduate.You would have to be blind not to think about playing in the U.S., said Colsaerts. There is big money and events there, but if he goes out and plays he would need to move out of Europe.Colsaerts claimed that Piieters has been inspired by European flair players, while Europes captain Darren Clarke said that he saw the same level of potential in the world No.dddddddddddd39 as he did in Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods?when they were young.Colsaerts, whose own sensational Ryder Cup debut in 2012 remains a highlight of his career, said there was more to Pieters than meets the eye.I wasnt surprised by how well Thomas did, he said. I have knocked around with him quite a lot in the last couple of years.He absolutely hates to lose and I knew he would fit well with the atmosphere and the players around him. People have a view that he is pretty cool, but there is a bit of fire in him.He will look back on this and it will sting, but there was nothing more he could have done. It was difficult not to give him A plus. It was a Ryder Cup performance that will be in the record books for some time.What next, then, for Pieters? He was due to arrive in Scotland Tuesday, where he will be staying in a house with Colsaerts and other players involved in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship at St. Andrews.Danny Willett, Matt Fitzpatrick and Rafa Cabrera Bello -- other Ryder Cup players who started as rookies at Hazeltine like Pieters -- were among those listed as entrants, too, for the event which starts on Thursday.He is young, very driven and there is a big ambition to play in the big events, said Colsaerts, who would like to see Pieters, the winner of three European Tour titles, start to make his mark in the majors.His market value will have gone up, but he just needs to stay patient and keep doing what he does. It is only a matter of time before he does something really big at a big event. ' ' '
