With a key wobble and a step on her landing, the gymnastics all-around gold medalist finished last among eight contestants in the individual uneven bars at the London Olympics on Monday.
Aliya Mustafina of Russia won with a 16.1. He Kexin of China was second, and home country favorite Elizabeth Tweddle won bronze.
Douglas was the last competitor to go, and a score higher than 15.916 would have knocked the Brit out of a medal. Instead, Douglas had her worst routine in four sessions here, scoring 14.9.
Douglas, visibly showing exhaustion from the strain of the all-around and team competition, where the USA won gold, seemed to take the disappointment in stride.
