Nothing to do for the blue Nicola Bartolini who, penalized by the judges, did not manage to reconfirm the world title in the free body won last year at the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships in Liverpool.
The blue finished only fifth, stopping just 33 thousandths from the bronze medal that ended up in the neck of the Japanese Ryosuke Doi.
Gold went to 24-year-old home athlete, then British, Giarnni Regini-Moran, with an overall score of 14,533, while Japanese Daiki Hashimoto, Olympic and world champion in the general competition, had to settle for the silver medal .
