Not ever.Andrade came to Tokyo looking strong, debuting a Cheng vault (round off on the board, half turn on the vaulting table, front one-and-a-half twist) during the qualifying rounds. In the apparatus final, Andrade brought back her difficult two-and-a-half twisting vault to win gold.Having already won the silver medal in the all-around, close behind USA's Suni Lee.
