What's a Good Score?
- High 55 to 56+ AA (around 110 two-day score) starts to be “medal at Worlds AA” territory. Only one 57+ score all year from the Russian Cup, plus many of the other top scores are not in Jakarta.
- 14.500-15.000+ on an event to possibly make an event final.
- To make the floor final low 14s will probably sneak in there.
- If you hit a 15+ in any event final you’re almost certainly winning a medal.
- Ultimately, anything above a 14 is a score you want to move on in the competition and find yourself on the podium.
- For reference… Best Scores of 2025
