The Netherlands have qualified for the men’s team final at the World Gymnastics Championships in Rotterdam, finishing seventh in qualifying with 242.995 points. Japan, the reigning Olympic team champions, led the eight-team field with 254.529 points. [1]
Casimir Schmidt, Loran de Munck, Elijah Faverus, Amine Abaidi and Jermain Grünberg competed for the Dutch team. They had to wait until the final qualifying group finished on Sunday to learn that their score was enough: the Netherlands had competed in the third of six groups on Saturday. [1]
Faverus and Grünberg also qualified for the individual all-around final, which features the top 24 gymnasts. The Dutch men had reached a world team final only once before, in 2018 in Doha; Schmidt was also part of that team. [1]
The result marks a turnaround from the European Championships in August, where the Netherlands finished ninth and narrowly missed the team final. [1]
