Jarman wins historic second Worlds silver in vault final

Jake Jarman, a British male gymnast, claimed his second silver medal at the World Gymnastics Championships, cementing his place as Britain's most decorated athlete in the event's history. Jarman achieved this feat by winning silver in the vault final, following his silver in the men's floor exercise. He scored 14.650 in the vault, narrowly missing gold by just 0.100 points, which went to Armenia's Artur Davtyan.

Jarman, 24, expressed his joy, emphasizing the importance of landing on his feet during gymnastics routines, which he acknowledged is more complex than it seems. Despite not achieving his target score for the vault, Jarman reflected positively on his performance, noting his consistency across various routines and personal bests.

British teenager Abigail Martin finished fourth in the women's floor final with the same score as the bronze medallist but lost out on the tie-break due to a lower execution score. Claire Pease of the United States claimed the gold in women's floor exercise. Additionally, Fraser of the British men's team secured the all-around bronze medal at the World Championships, with the men's team needing to wait for a spot at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
