Former Michigan star and NCAA champion Sam Mikulak was 7th AA in the prelims, after struggling on PH. Teammate Chris Brooks, another Sooner, also struggled on PH but qualified to the AA final in 19th place. Mikulak posted the top score of the day on FX to lead qualifiers to the final, and also made the HB final with his modified routine (no Cassina). Former OU Sooner Alex Naddour qualified for the PH final, while another former Sooner, Jake Dalton, made the FX final (in 2nd). The USA's Danell Leyva, originally the alternate, made finals on PB and HB.
Among others with NCAA ties, no others made finals. Ex Ohio State standout Mikhail Koudinov of New Zealand placed 45th AA, while Cal's Ryan Patters (RSA) was 46th. Incoming Stanford frosh David Jessen (son of Hana Ricna) was just behind in 47th.
France's Samir Ait Said suffered a devastating leg injury on vault, after qualifying to the Ring final. We advise you to avoid any video replays of the horrific injury. We wish him (and Germany's Andreas Toba, who also did not finish the competition but still did PH after seriously injuring his knee on FX) a successful recovery.
