Carlos Yulo Wins Vault Gold Medal at Gymnastics World Championships

Carlos Yulo stowed the gold medal at the men's vault championship because of his execution of the Kasamatsu twofold twist and a Dragulescu—which is considered as probably the hardest element that should be possible on the vault. After his performance Yulo was scored an average of 14.916, which outperformed Japan's Yonekura Hidenobu, who positioned second with a nearby score of 14.866. This is Yulo's first vault decoration at the World's Gymnastics Championship.
