American Danell Leyva won parallel bars, helping the U.S. finish second with four golds and three bronzes.

Korea's Yang Hak Seon outvaulted the field, landing his spectacular handspring, triple-twisting layout front for first place. Defending champion Thomas Bouhail (France) nailed his first vault but stumbled backward on his second for fourth.
