GB's Fraser wins all-around bronze at Worlds
Great Britain's Joe Fraser bounced back from the disappointment of Wednesday's team final to win all-around bronze at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Rotterdam.
The 27-year-old finished with a score of 83.531 after the six disciplines to become just the third British man to win a world all-around medal, after Dan Keatings and Max Whitlock won silver in 2009 and 2014 respectively.
Japan's Daiki Hashimoto scored 85.988 to win his fourth successive all-around gold at a World Championships, while China's Haonan Yang took silver with 84.199.
Britain's Jake Jarman narrowly missed out on the podium with a score of 82.865, but his sixth-place finish means it is the best result by a pair of British men in the all-around event at a World Championships.
Fraser celebrated his bronze medal with a thumb-sucking gesture - a nod to his pregnant girlfriend who was watching from home.
"I've got a pregnant girlfriend at home with four weeks to go, we've had a team final to qualify for the Olympic Games and sadly didn't make it and I've gone out there today and managed to pick up a bronze medal," Fraser told BBC Sport.
"It's been a real whirlwind but I have loved every second and I'm grateful to be out there in amongst the best in the world.
