Madison Kocian competes all four women’s gymnastics events but it’s her prowess on uneven bars, often one of the U.S.’s weakest events, that has made Madison Kocian an invaluable member of two world championship teams. The Dallas native first captured a national title on bars in 2015, then a world title a few months later. Her gold medal from the world championships had an unusual twist, as she received the exact same uneven bars score as three other gymnasts. Kocian, China’s Fan Yilin and Russia’s Viktoria Komova and Daria Spiridonova all received gold medals and shared the top of the podium.
