Luo Huan

Luo Huan is an elite Chinese gymnast.

However, without a clear standout event (she did not make any event finals), she was not named to the 2016 Olympic team, instead being selected as an alternate.

She won her first senior all-around title later that year at the Chinese Individual National Championships in October.

Luo began her season by competing at the Melbourne World Cup in February alongside Wang Yan and Liu Tingting.

She qualified first into the bars final and second into the beam final behind Liu.

In the bars final, a mistake on her Ling pirouette caused her to finish in second behind Liu, and on beam she placed fourth behind Liu, reigning Olympic Champion Sanne Wevers of the Netherlands, and Emily Little of Australia after falling on her dismount.

A month later, she competed at the Doha World Cup, once again alongside Wang and Liu.

She qualified in first place to the uneven bars final and in fourth place to the balance beam final.

She is a two-time Chinese national all-around champion (2017, 2018) and the 2017 Asian and 2018 Asian Games all-around silver medalist.

On her specialty events, she is the 2017 Asian and 2017 Chinese national uneven bars champion and the 2018 Chinese balance beam champion.

She was a member of the Chinese women's gymnastics team that won the team bronze medal at the 2018 Artistic Gymnastics World Championships.

Overall, she has won eleven medals at the Chinese Artistic Gymnastics Championships.

Luo made her international elite debut at the Australian Youth Olympic Festival in January.

There, she won gold with her team and silver on the uneven bars.

In May, representing Zhejiang province at the senior-level Chinese Championships, she came in fourth with her team and eighth on bars.

In September, she competed at the Chinese National Games, winning a team silver medal.

Luo competed at the Pacific Rim Championships, winning the bronze medal with the Chinese team behind the United States and Canada.

Individually, Luo recorded the fourth highest score in the junior all-around winning gold on bars, behind Americans Bailie Key, Nia Dennis, and Norah Flatley and narrowly ahead of teammate Liu Tingting.

However, due to the two-per-country rule, she was awarded the bronze medal over Flatley.

In the junior event finals, she won gold on the uneven bars, ahead of Key and Liu, and placed fourth on floor and eighth on vault.

This competition was the first of many events throughout Liu and Luo's careers where they competed together, often placing closely in the all-around and event finals.

At the senior-level Chinese Championships in May, Luo and provincial teammate Huang Huidan led the Zhejiang team to the gold medal in the team competition.

Luo was the only member of the team to contribute counting scores on all four events, including the second-highest score of the day on balance beam behind Shang Chunsong.

She then delivered a strong performance in the all-around final to finish in fourth place behind Yao Jinnan, Shang, and Wang Yan, with less than a tenth of a point between her and the podium.

She finished first among all junior participants, and once again recorded the second-highest beam score behind Shang.

In event finals, she placed fourth on uneven bars behind Yao, Shang, and Huang, and sixth on balance beam.

In November, Luo competed at the Chinese Individual National Championships as one of the top names, given the absence of the senior members of the World Championships team.

She won gold in the all-around, her first all-around title, and on uneven bars.

In June, Luo competed at the Chinese Championships on the senior level.

She qualified to the all-around, uneven bars, and floor exercise finals and was the second reserve for the balance beam final.

In the team final, the Zhejiang team placed fourth.

Luo individually placed seventh in the all-around, a tenth behind top junior scorer Liu Tingting.

She placed seventh in the uneven bars final after falling, but placed third in the floor exercise final behind seniors Wang Yan and Shang Chunsong, winning her first individual medal at the senior championships.

Liu's final junior-level competition came in October at the Chinese National Youth Games.

Representing the city of Ningbo in Zhejiang, Luo won a gold medal with her junior provincial team and placed fourth in the all-around behind Liu Tingting, Wang Cenyu, and Lu Yufei.

She also placed fourth on floor exercise and fifth on balance beam.

Luo made her senior international debut at the Doha World Challenge Cup in late March, competing only on balance beam.

She qualified into the event final but ended up placing after falling on her Onodi and putting her hands down on her double pike dismount.

In May, Luo competed for the first time as a senior at the Chinese Championships.

She placed fifth representing Zhejiang in the team final, and also placed fifth in the all-around final.
