Although Taiwan’s World Universiade men’s team gymnastics team finished 6th in the finals on the 2nd, Li Zhikai, known as the “Prince of the Pommel Horse”, won three final tickets for the Individual All-Around, Pommel Horse and Horizontal Bar in the individual qualifying competition. .
The individual all-around final is scheduled to be held at 14:30 pm on the 4th, but Li Zhikai has been removed from the final list, indicating that Li Zhikai has retired.
Coach Lin Yuxin confirmed that due to his physical injury and poor recovery, Li Zhikai gave up the all-around competition and fought hard for the pommel horse and horizontal bar finals the day following tomorrow.
