Skye Blakely transformou dois anos de reabilitação no maior prêmio fora das Olimpíadas. Nesta sexta-feira, em Rotterdam, a norte-americana de 21 anos conquistou o título do individual geral no Mundial com 55.733 pontos nos quatro aparelhos.

A russa Liudmila Roshchina ficou com a prata, com 55.199; a chinesa Ke Qinqin levou o bronze com 55.032. Blakely, natural de Dallas e segunda colocada na fase classificatória, controlou os nervos nas barras e na trave e chegou ao solo com mais de um ponto de vantagem.

A volta por cima é o que dá peso ao título. O rompimento do tendão de Aquiles direito, sofrido em treino de solo dois dias antes da seletiva americana para Paris 2024, exigiu cirurgia e encerrou uma temporada em que ela havia sido vice-campeã nacional atrás de Simone Biles. Era o segundo golpe grande, depois do ligamento do cotovelo rompido no aquecimento para a seletiva de Tóquio.

“Durante toda a competição, eu ficava dizendo para mim mesma ‘Faça pela menina de 2021 e pela menina de 2024 que não pôde fazer tudo, lute por ela’”, contou. “Era isso que eu repetia: ‘Eu sou capaz, eu estou pronta’ e deixei cada versão de mim mesma extremamente orgulhosa.”

“Eu já chorei, mas isso significa o mundo para mim”, acrescentou, citando “duas cirurgias grandes, muitas dificuldades, altos e baixos”.

A nota de 14.200 na trave — aparelho que tinha lhe dado problemas mais cedo na semana — construiu a vantagem que ela levou para a última rotação.
