European Championships Munich 2022: Jake Jarman and Joe Fraser win gymnastics golds on final day

Jake Jarman and Joe Fraser won individual apparatus golds as Great Britain’s gymnasts claimed five medals on the final day of the European Championships in Munich.

Jarman, 20, became the first British gymnast to win a European title on the vault, as well as winning floor bronze.

He had not been scheduled to compete on the vault, but was a late swap for compatriot Giarnni Regini-Moran.

Fraser won his third gold medal of the Championships on the parallel bars.

Regini-Moran took bronze behind Fraser, while Courtney Tulloch took the same colour on the rings.

Great Britain finished top of the gymnastics medal table with five golds, three silvers and three bronzes in total – the nation’s best ever artistic gymnastics European Championship medal haul.

It was only after Jarman had won his bronze medal that he was confirmed to be competing in a second apparatus final, after Regini-Moran chose to sit out the vault because of a sore ankle.

Jarman told BBC Sport: “My coach told me, ‘There’s a possibility you might have to do vault’, so I literally had one or two goes on the vault out here and one or two in the back gym.

“It’s the most the most last-minute thing that’s ever happened to me.”
