Fans are concerned about what happened to Brazilian gymnast Flavia Saraiva after a nasty fall at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. During the warm-up for the uneven bars event in the women's team final, Flavia jumped onto the high bar but then fell hard to the mat after attempting to swing onto the low bar. She remained still on the floor for more than a few seconds before rolling to the side while holding her head. Here's an update on Flavia's injury for the 2024 Olympics.

The latest news on her injury is that she appears to be doing well after the fall, but she will have to wear a bandage over her right eye for the rest of the event.

Saraiva has since completed her uneven bars, balance beam, vault and floor routines, posting respectable scores in the 13s on all four apparatus. She made several uncharacteristic errors with a few more wobbles than her qualifying round performance, but she looked healthy enough to compete.
