One of the guys who really made it happen for British gymnastics in this London Olympic Games is Max Whitlock! It was impressive to see him do all his routines during the last men's team competition.
They were actually in a four-way fight with Japan, Ukraine and the Russian Federation for the silver and bronze medal positions and he and his team just performed consistently, so that they surprisingly snagged the bronze. At one point, they even thought they had the silver medal!! But since Japan protested, they slipped to the bronze medal position. Not bad considering they were not a force to reckon with, in the first place.
