The victory came a day after he captured the bronze medal in the floor exercise on Friday.

Artur Davtyan of Armenia scored 14.466 to claim silver, while Nazar Chepurnyi of Ukraine placed third with 14.366.

This is Yulo’s second World Championships gold in vault, having first won the event in 2021, and his third World Championships gold overall after claiming the floor exercise title in 2019.

Yulo is a two-time Olympic gold medalist as he won the floor exercise and vault finals in the 2024 Paris Olympics.
