Max Whitlock performed sensationally to score a personal best of 92.700 to take the title. Having never broken the 92 mark before it is a huge score for Max that would have won both the last Olympic Games and World Championships. A particular highlight was his pommel horse routine where he scored a 16.250. However that wasn’t the only 16 for the world champion, he also scored a 16.050 on the floor and an impressive 15.450 on the high bar. Max’s scores also secured him British titles on the pommel horse, floor, and high bar.

Max: “I’m really really happy – preparation went well, the build-up was perfect and that’s my personal best and I’m very happy to do it at the British. I felt good throughout the competition, tried not to get ahead of myself just focussing on the next piece, step by step and I’m happy to have done it on all six pieces on the right day.
