Carlos Yulo places last in floor final at Worlds, shifts focus to vault
- On Saturday, October 24, Filipino gymnast Carlos Yulo finished eighth in the floor exercise final at the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships in Rotterdam, Netherlands, ending his bid to reclaim his world title.
- Yulo first captured the world title in Stuttgart, Germany, before earning two Olympic gold medals at the Paris Games, and just a month ago, he won gold in both floor exercise and vault at the 2026 Asian Games in Japan.
- In the eight-man final, Yulo's routine included 5.800 in difficulty; he received a 0.10 stick bonus but incurred a 0.30 penalty that impacted his final standing.
- American gymnast Fred Richard won the title, becoming the first American in 23 years to claim world floor exercise gold, while Great Britain's Jake Jarman took silver and Israel's Artem Dolgopyat earned bronze.
- Yulo finished fourth in the parallel bars final earlier in the competition but remains in contention for a world title in the vault final on Sunday, October 25, in Rotterdam.
