Brits in action at the World Gymnastics Championships 2025
Back to 2025 and Jarman will be heading to Jakarta, aiming to defend his vault title from Antwerp while hoping to add to the bronze medal he won on floor exercise at the Bercy Arena in France’s capital, little more than a year ago.
Fellow Olympic medallist Hepworth is also well respected on the floor and vault, having claimed bronze in Paris last August on the latter, while triple European floor champion Whitehouse will be looking to rectify a small mistake that left him out of the medals in Paris with success in Jakarta.
So strong are the British men on floor and vault in particular that they will be vying with each other just to make the eight-person final, with only two from each nation allowed to progress.
Nevertheless, in the first World Championships of the new Olympic cycle, and without a team event, now is very much the time to go all out for themselves.
Fraser, the 2019 world champion on parallel bars, will just be glad to be back in the fold, having been managing injuries that include a ruptured appendix, a fractured foot, and shoulder surgery over the past few years.
The fifth-place finisher in the men’s all-around competition in Paris will be eyeing a return to individual success at the Worlds, having missed the 2023 edition.
Rings specialist Tulloch, meanwhile, will be hoping to add to his world bronze from 2022 on the strength-inducing apparatus.
Each world title claimed by the Brits thus far has been a history-making moment, a journey they’ll hope to continue in the Indonesia Arena come October.
