Artur Tovmasyan won gold medal in the rings, repeating his success in the World University Games held in 2015, Gwangju, South Korea.

He won 15.02 points and took the first place. Turkish athlete Ibrahim Colak was the second with 14.958 points.

First Tovmasyan was qualified as a reserve in the rings. Later Armenian finalist Artur Davtyan left the competition in favor of his teammate, and Tovmasyan won the 1st place, justifying the expectations.
