Overview

• The team crown was decided by combined individual and group scores rather than a standalone event.
• Varfolomeev’s all-around victory with 121.900 points the day before anchored Germany’s winning total.
• Worlds debutant Anastasia Simakova placed sixth in the all-around, materially boosting the team result.
• Germany’s group finished eighth in the group all-around and narrowly missed the hand-apparatus final as Japan won the event.
• A ceremony error saw the Georgian anthem played for Varfolomeev’s win, and she now enters Sunday’s apparatus finals with a chance to defend up to four titles.
