Yes, there is something wrong.
Somebody has misheard, misunderstood or mistranscribed this sentence:
'She finished 10th in the all-around.'
Here's a definition of 'all-around.':
Definition: The term all-around simply means all of the different gymnastics apparatus.
All-around results would be the total of all four events in women's gymnastics and rhythmic gymnastics, or all six events in men's gymnastics.

"all rounds" may be a special term for her sport
or
she finished 10th after all the rounds, might be better
