Overview
- Four of the six group members filed a complaint with FEVIMTRA against head coach Blajaith Aguilar before the competition, prompting an investigation by Mexican authorities.
- The Federación Mexicana de Gimnasia removed Aguilar and named María Eugenia Figueroa interim coach for the team’s first international meet since the complaint.
- The Mexican group of Adirem Tedjada, Dalia Alcocer, Julia Gutiérrez, Kimberly Salazar, Giselle Torres and Jaydi Novelo scored 47.950 in the all-around with 24.300 in five balls and 23.650 in three hoops plus two clubs to take bronze on Saturday.
- Brazil won gold with 57.450 and the United States took silver with 49.050, and Mexico’s results leave them positioned to pursue qualification for the Lima 2027 Pan American Games pending the final routine outcomes.
- Aguilar’s defense says the Fiscalía General de la República denied access to the investigation file and has handled the case with bias, a procedural claim that keeps the legal dispute active while the athletes continue to compete.
