  • A few discrepancies exist in data for the results from these World Championships. [3][4][2]

Due to the existence of those discrepancies, ultimately a later source, that claimed that those discrepancies were the results of computation errors[5] and that was a more thorough source of information with better sourcing to original documents, was used for the results listed in this edit.

Women

[edit]

This first ever women's competition at a World Artistic Gymnastics Championships consisted of a competitive field including five countries and 40 individual competitors.[6]
