First Swiss since 1950: Seifert makes history at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships

1/5
Noe Seifert shows a great performance in the all-around final.

With his rise to the top 10, Seifert has achieved something historic. It is the best World Cup ranking for a Swiss all-round athlete since 1950. Seifert was thanks to a largely consistent performance – including performing the fourth best exercise on the parallel bars. He missed an even better result on the high bar, where he had to settle for 12,800 points. But because several competitors also made mistakes, Seifert could be happy that he ultimately finished in the top ten.

World champion in the first individual men’s decision was defending champion Daiki Hashimoto of Japan with 86,132 points. Ukraine’s Ilya Kowtun secured second place with 84.998 points, ahead of Frederick Richard from the US (84.332). (SDA)
