Gymnastics women's vault and uneven bars finals live stream: Tokyo Olympics channels, start time and how to watch online

Get ready to see athletes flight high in the gymnastics women's vault and uneven bars finals live stream at the Tokyo Olympics. Team USA's Sunisa Lee, the new all-around champ, will attempt to win another gold in her best event, the uneven bars. Her teammates, Jade Carey and Mykayla Skinner, will compete in the vault uneven bars.

Simone Biles, who also qualified for those event finals, will not be joining them. She previously withdrew from the team and all-around finals. Team USA Gymnastics cited mental health in their announcement. 

“We wholeheartedly support Simone’s decision and applaud her bravery in prioritizing her well-being,” the statement said. “Her courage shows, yet again, why she is a role model for so many.”

Biles will be replaced by teammate Skinner. The top eight qualifiers move on to finals and Skinner placed fourth. However, only two gymnasts per country are allowed to compete and she scored behind both Biles and Carey. Now, she gets a chance to vie for a medal.
