Courtney Tulloch warned the rest of the world the best is yet to come from Great Britain’s men at the World Championships after an impressive qualifying display.
Tulloch was in imperious form on rings and vault on Monday to help his team qualify behind only Olympic silver medallists Japan as Great Britain hunt a first team medal since 2015 on Wednesday evening.
The Maidstone gymnast will be joined by Gravesend's Giarnni Regini-Moran and Maidstone's James Hall in the showpiece after the home nation fired a warning shot to the competition, finishing ahead of much-fancied China and rivals USA.
But four-time Commonwealth champion Tulloch knows the hosts must improve if they are to break their seven-year duck. “We know what we’re capable of, we know we’re better than that,” said Tulloch, who also qualified first for the individual rings final. “We made some mistakes, had some errors but it’s qualification; we all made it, we’re all safe.
