The 52nd Artistic Gymnastics World Championships took place from September 30 to October 8 in Antwerp, Belgium. The event, which also served as a qualification for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, featured participation from 400 athletes representing 73 countries.

Azerbaijan was represented at the championship by members of the national team: Nikita Simonov, Ivan Tikhonov, Nazanin Teymurova and Samira Gahramanova.

Among our team members, the best result was achieved by Nikita Simonov. In the qualification round, he earned a score of 14.666 for his performance on the Rings and maintained the same score in the final, finishing in 5th place.
