Commonwealth Games gold medallist Ruby Evans is part of the Great Britain team hoping to vault, twist and tumble their way onto the podium at the Gymnastics World Championships in Rotterdam.
15 world titles are on the line at Rotterdam Ahoy – eight men's events and five women's events – with 79 nations competing.
Qualifying runs from the first Saturday, but things really step up a notch on Tuesday, with the men's team final, which is the first medal event.
This week is about more than just world titles as the top three teams in the men’s and women’s competitions will qualify for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.
Great Britain finished fourth in the medal table in Jakarta last year, with one gold, two silvers and two bronzes, while the home nations combined for an encouraging haul at this summer's Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
