Let's apply the same rules for beam. I am expecting absolutely nothing with this round, because of the fact with beam, falls are much more common. Let's do this just for fun.

Gold-Ling Jie [CHN]

Averaging these places we can predict our podium from this year will place
Sui Lu-20*
Yao Jinnan-14
Jordyn Wieber-11
All this goes show is how unpredictable gymnastics and beam is. Let's cross our fingers that all the beam finalists stay on!! Good Luck to the future beam finalists in London!
*Fan Ye did not make her country's Olympic team in 2004, so Sui Lu's average placing was thrown off a little by dividing by two instead of three*
