American gymnasts Jade Carey and Brody Malone capped their world championships with gold medals in the apparatus finals, highlighting the U.S. squad’s strong run through the last two days of competition.
. In the bars final Saturday, she delivered an excellent routine to score a 14.766, behind only China’s Wei Xiaoyuan and ahead of Olympic gold medalist Nina Derwael of Belgium. Consistency had been an issue for Jones in the past, but her clean performances in Liverpool affirmed her status as one of the country’s top gymnasts.
Skye Blakely, a 17-year-old, has a difficult beam routine and fell in the final, finishing fifth with a 13.300. Without the one-point deduction for the fall, Blakely would have had the top score ahead of gold medalist Hazuki Watanabe of Japan. Behind Malone, 18-year-old Asher Hong had a strong debut at his first worlds, placing sixth in the all-around. It was the first time two American men have finished in the top 10 at world championships since 2003.
