Meet the 5 elite female gymnasts who will represent the USA at the Rio Olympics

This weekend, the United States' most elite gymnasts battled it out for one of five spots on the 2016 Olympic team headed to Rio this month.

The selection of the team wasn't all about numbers: Only the top scorer at the trials wins an automatic spot on the team. The women who took the remaining four slots were chosen by a selection committee that scrutinized every leap, turn, and gravity-defying flip over two nights of competition. 

Finally, late Sunday night, the team was announced. Meet the five gymnasts who will represent the US at the next Olympic games and defend their gold medal against athletes from all across the world.
