American Jade Carey won women&rsquo;s gymnastics floor gold at the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/Tokyo+Olympics-all">Olympic</a>s on Monday in a quick upturn in fortune after disappointing in the vault final 24 hours earlier.&nbsp;
Carey, 21, from Arizona tumbled her way to a score of 14.366 to take the title from Italian veteran Vanessa Ferrari, 30.&nbsp;
There was a rare dead-heat for bronze between Japan&rsquo;s Mai Murakami and Angelina Melnikova, who led the Russians to team gold last week.&nbsp;
For Carey this was rapid redemption after she stumbled on landing on her first vault on Sunday and cut a sorrowful figure after her second jump.&nbsp;
Those tears of frustration were well and truly dissipated when her technically taxing and expertly executed floor routine earned her gold to continue the USA&rsquo;s productive time at the Ariake Gymnastics Centre, despite Simone Biles&rsquo;s absence.
