The top 3 teams from the 2018 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships qualified to the 2020 Summer Olympic Games .
Oldest and youngest competitors
Individual all-around
Defending champion Xiao Ruoteng of China lost the title on a tiebreaker to Russia's Artur Dalaloyan . The tie-breaking procedure in this situation is dropping of the lowest-scoring apparatus from the combined score, and whoever's total score on the remaining five apparatuses is higher after that will rank ahead (74.198 versus 73.465). Dalaloyan became the first Russian man to win the all-around title since Nikolai Kryukov in 1999 ; they were at that time the only two Russian men to have won the title in the post-Soviet era. Last year's silver medalist, China's Lin Chaopan , failed to reach the final after finishing behind teammates Xiao and Sun Wei in qualifying. Reigning bronze medalist Kenzō Shirai of Japan finished in seventh place after some weaker and lower-scoring apparatuses, namely pommel horse.
Canada's René Cournoyer withdrew prior to the competition and was replaced by first reserve Artur Davtyan of Armenia .

Although Artur Dalaloyan of Russia and Kenzō Shirai of Japan both posted the top combined score (14.833) in qualifications, Dalaloyan placed ahead after applying the tie-breaking procedure because he posted a higher E-score than Shirai (8.633 versus 8.033). The same situation with the score (14.333) happened for Kazuma Kaya of Japan, Sam Mikulak of the United States and James Hall of Britain , when Kaya and Mikulak took the final's last two spots after their tied 8th place because they posted identical D- and E-scores while Hall ended up placing 10th, and just missed qualifying for the finals, even though he posted the same combined score.
