He scored 14.933 points to win the vault title over Harry Hepworth of Great Britain, who scored 14.816 points. Wai Hung Shek of Hong Kong was third with 14.716.

Aside from Yulo, the other double-gold performers were Coline Devillard (women’s vault) and Marine Boyer (women’s floor exercise) of France, and Milad Karimi (men’s floor exercise) and Nariman Kurbanov (men’s pommel horse) of Kazakhstan.
