However, in a remarkable comeback, Dipa scored the highest in Vault 2 with 15.100 to bring up her average to 14.366. Earlier in the day, Ashish had finished sixth in the men's floor final where he took bronze in 2010. With a score of 15.533 points, England's Max Whitlock clinched the gold while Canada's Scott Morgan (15.133) took the silver. New Zealander David Bishop (14.55) won the bronze. The 23-year-old Ashish finished sixth out of eight competitors with a score of 13.8 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
