[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Zhu would not have made team USA. This happens all the time and is a non issue. We have plenty of athletes that won gold for the USA but grew up and trained somewhere else. Gu is different. She is a superstar, best in the world at what she does. When she made the china decision she was already the best and firmly #1 on team USA with a guaranteed spot which makes the China choice a mystery (I’ve heard her explanation but something seems off). Now she was also 15 years old and did what her mom told her, you absolutely can’t blame her as the mom is a known tiger mom and I’m sure it was the moms choice.[/quote] Yes, correct on Zhu. Puzzled re: Gu. One possibility is $$. Training on the elite level in the US is extremely expensive. It's possible that she was offered better training conditions, better coaches, and all free.
