Who cares at this point everything is just theater. If she's injured she "can't" compete. If she isn't she can. So if she just chooses not to and then does the individual round she's just selfish but what else do you expect these days. Her BRAND is greater then her desire to compete for her country. For now the superstars have no interest in country only about what they can get out of it.

She's already pulled out of the individual.

Seeing as how she's won 30 Olympic and International medals in about 10 years, I think we collectively owe her a thank you.

I just looked into her past and she decided to home school in 2012(15 years old), so she could train for 32 hours a week vs 20, and that's probably a conservative number. She's basically dedicated her entire life to performing at the highest level she can for this country. Was that her choice? Yes. But it's also her choice and her right at this point to say "what's in it for me?"
