∙ 12y agoRight now in the year 2011 it remains to be Nastia Liukin, or Shawn Johnson from the USA Team. Its been like that since 2008, but next year with the olympics, it could all change. Plus, there are many great chinese and russian gymnasts.

∙ 15y agoIn my perspective Mary Lou Retton was a very excellent gymnast. Winning the very first 10 in womens gymnastics on vault for the USA she is now an international icon in Womens gymnastics. But maybe the best gymnast in Womens Gymnastics was Nadia Commeneci. The Romainian gymnast was the very first person to win a 10 on vault for the whole Womens Gymnastics let alone the Romainian Team.

The best way to write about the history would be to start with the very first female gymnast who made her way to the Olympics in 1948. Her name was Marian Barone, and she walked away earning one bronze medal.
