P Bars World Champion is …

You know. The G.O.A.T.

Zou Jingyuan

Twitter says Brazil judge gave Zou Jingyuan a 10.0 execution. The first I’ve heard about since Chris Grabowecky gave the last 10 in the old 10.0 code. I’m OK with a perfect 10. It’s the greatest routine on any apparatus in the history of our sport.

This is his 5th World Championship title.

1. Zou Jingyuan, China, 15.733
2. Illia Kovtun, Croatia, 14.900
3. Daniel Marinov, Russia, 14.866
4. Hashimoto Daiki, Japan, 14.600
5. Oka Shinnosuke, Japan, 14.566
6. Arseniy Dukhno, Russia, 14.100
7. David Rumbutis, Sweden, 13.866
8. Noe Seifert, Switzerland, 12.500

I would have had Oka higher, myself.

I’m happy for Daniel, in any case, as it sounds like a judging error denied him 3rd in the All-Around competition.

Full results.
