This result was the best finish at Worlds by a U.S. man since 2011. In the individual event finals, Mikulak broke through and won his first World individual event medal, a bronze on high bar.

He won the silver medal on pommel horse and the bronze medal on high bar. In October, he competed only on high bar at the 2017 World Championships in Montreal, Canada, as he was still not fully back from his injury.
