The International Gymnastics Federation has posted the nominative roster for the 2015 World Championships which will be held in Glasgow, Scotland October 23 through November 1.
Key is a first year senior and placed fourth all-around at this year's P&G Championships. At her senior international debut at the Jesolo Trophy in March, Key placed second all-around to Biles. She did better than Douglas, Dowell, Skinner and Kocian (All four were named to the world Championship Team) Key is an All-rounder and the fourth best gymnast in America. She definitely deserves a spot in the Team
The final U.S. women's team will not be announced until the World Championships Selection Camp October 6-9 but below are the gymnasts listed for USA's nominative roster. There are seven gymnasts listed but only six allowed on a team. One of the gymnasts below would likely be named the alternate.
Aly Raisman
MyKayla Skinner
Maggie Nichols
Gabby Douglas
Simone Biles
Madison Kocian
Brenna Dowell
Gymnasts who are on the World Championships training squad but not listed on the nominative roster are: Alyssa Baumann, Nia Dennis, Madison Desch, Rachel Gowey, Amelia Hundley, Bailie Key, Ashton Locklear, and Kyla Ross.
