Yao Jinnan does rehab after shoulder surgery in the USA
Unfortunately, we're approaching that point in the year when the injury list is growing. Sad news for Sabrina Vega fans is that she needed another shoulder surgery and that is why she has not been at camp. Chanysha Netteb (NED) has needed a second knee surgery - unclear if related to the first injury or not.
On the good news side, a few athletes are back or expected to be back. Ferlito is back from her medical issues and a foot injury that kept her out of the all around.
The list consists of national team members that have had some injury that keeps them out of competition. (c) indicates gymnasts that have returned to national team camp or control competition but not yet to a "public" competition.
