Noe Seifert, Christian Baumann, Florian Langenegger, Taha Serhani and Luca Giubellini improved two places compared to qualifying, leaving Germany, Canada and Italy behind. It is the best World Cup ranking for the Swiss since third place in 1954.
With 244,426 points, they scored significantly fewer points than in qualifying (248,192), but this is because there are no discarded results in the final and all three results from an apparatus are counted. Only China improved compared to Sunday.
Two mistakes in a solid performance
On the ground, the Swiss lose almost three points compared to qualifying, which is largely due to Giubellini’s fall on the last diagonal. Serhani lands on his buttocks on the parallel bars during the dismount. Otherwise, the Swiss made no major mistakes. The achievement is even higher because Baumann is the only one who has ever participated in a team final at a World Championship.
“It’s unbelievable, I didn’t expect it,” said veteran Baumann. «We had nothing to lose, we could enjoy it. Although we made a few mistakes, overall it was a good game.”
Japan, which had already dominated qualifying, won its first gold medal in Antwerp. The Asians are 1,800 points ahead of defending champion China with a total of 255,594. The US secured bronze. (SDA)
