The 2019 World Championships in Stuttgart are underway with podium training and the competition starts on October 4th.
Here’s everything you need to know if you want to follow the competition.
Unfortunately, despite it’s being the 21st century and despite using robot judges in competition, there’s still no online stream for all the qualification sessions which would be available worldwide. Some of the qualification sessions will be available to watch on NBCSports.com (set your VPN to US) and some will be broadcasted on a German TV channel SWR.de (set your VPN to Germany), and the FIG’s Youtube channel (available in some countries).
Only 24 teams qualified from the last year’s World Championships to compete as full teams here in Stuttgart. The rest of the countries were allowed to send up to three individual athletes.
