Gabby Douglas Strengthens U. S. Gymnastics Depth

NEW YORK  — No better place for Gabby Douglas to have a coming out party than Madison Square Garden.

Oozing class, confidence and some serious star power, the 16-year-old upstaged world gymnastics champion Jordyn Wieber on Saturday by posting the highest score at the American Cup.

The London Olympics are less than five months away, and Douglas’ emergence is further sign that the Americans might have their deepest — and most dangerous — team yet.

Wieber was the official winner Saturday, giving her a second straight American Cup title and third overall. Fellow American Aly Raisman was second.
