Carlos Yulo lands flat on his back in consecutive routines in the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships as he bungles his first crack at a Paris Olympics berth
Yulo landed flat on his back in consecutive routines as he endured a nightmarish start in the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp, Belgium, on Saturday, September 30 .
He posted 14.666 in parallel bars, 14.6 in floor exercise, and respectable scores of 13.7 in horizontal bar and 13.233 in pommel horse. Perhaps still hurting from the fall, the 23-year-old suffered the same fate in his first vault – a surprising mishap in an event where he won gold in Kitakyushu, Japan, in 2021 and silver in Liverpool, United Kingdom, in 2022.
The disappointing start in the world championships comes months after Yulo parted ways with Japanese coach Munehiro Kugimiya, who mentored him since he started training in Japan in 2016.He can still earn a coveted Paris slot as he currently sits at third place in the floor exercise, with the top eight advancing to the final.
