Great Britain arrived at the Tokyo Olympics two years ago as heavy underdogs with low expectations. Not only were they a young and inexperienced group but they had to ignore ample criticism about the team composition after the omission of Becky Downie. At the end of a chaotic, unforgettable night in the team final, though, they held their nerve and emerged as surprise bronze medallists.
The British team have continued to be the revelation Gymnasts can sometimes struggle to replicate such lofty successes, but a year later, they won a first world team silver medal on home soil in Liverpool. This year, they became European champions for the first time and finishing second in qualifying here showed they have not let up.
