Night One In Hartford

Night one in Hartford is in the books and Jonathan Horton is in the lead. It was an off day for many competitors. The unthinkable happened and Horton actually ''hit'' Pommel Horse (13.95) but fell on High Bar (14.200). Mr. Talkative chatted to the press incessantly about his desire to challenge Uchimura and wanting to be Superman.

Results

Danell Leyva is second and Brandon Wynn is third.

Chris Brooks is in a tie for 7th place after a watered down floor routine and a stellar 12.050 on Pommel Horse for a routine that didn't include a fall. He won Parallel Bars with a 15.700 and High Bar with a 15.800.

Steve Legendre is in 23rd after a craptacular day. He nailed a 17.050 (9.450 Execution) on Vault but didn't break out of the 7s for execution elsewhere.

Daniel Ribiero won Pommel Horse with a 15.500 on his only event of the day.

John Orozco did not finish the meet due to injury.

Joey Hagerty had a decent but not great return to competition. He has yet to sparkle since Beijing.

Kevin Tan's return to the sport is in trouble after yet another injury.
