What Happened to Flavia Saraiva? Fall & Injury Update

Fans are concerned about what happened to Flavia Saraiva , the gymnast from Brazil, after a nasty fall at the 2024 Paris Olympics . During the warmups for the uneven bars during the women’s team final, Flavia hopped onto the high bar but then fell hard onto the mat after trying to swing down to the low bar. She remained still on the floor for more than several seconds before rolling off to the side while holding her head. Here’s if there’s an update on Flavia’s injury for the 2024 Olympic Games .

Is there a Flavia Saraiva injury update at 2024 Paris Olympics?

The latest Flavia Saraiva injury update is that she looks to be fine after falling, though she is competing with a bandage over her right eye for the rest of the event.

Saraiva has since completed her routines for uneven bars, balance beam, vault, and floor exercise, earning respectable scores in the 13s on all four apparatuses. She made several uncharacteristic mistakes with a few more wobbles than her performances in the qualification round, but she looked healthy enough to compete.

We will update this article if we learn more about whether Saraiva experienced anything more severe than just a fall and a cut. Gymnastics fans are very much aware about possible concussions during the 2024 Olympic Games. France’s Marine Boyer had a terrible fall and concussion right before the women’s qualification round, rattling the team and causing many members to fall multiple times. This shockingly led the French team not being able to qualify for the team final, despite the team winning a surprise bronze medal at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.

Saraiva, along with Simone Biles and fellow Brazilian teammate Rebeca Andrade, is still expected to compete during the women’s all-around event on August 1 at 9:15 AM PT. Hopefully, she has enough time to recover over the next two days.
