The team of Japan received the highest score including all events in the competition for their Free combination routine: 97.375. China's biggest rival on the Asian continent used dramacity and beautiful figures to capture silver. Elegance and finesse were the assets of the young Ukrainian team to climb the podium with a total 95.400.

The host country, Mexico, produced a fine performance overall. The Mexicans, who renovated the team to have a good result at home, finished fifth, ahead of traditional synchro powerhouses Russia and USA.

Fans at the World Trophy were very enthusiastic and filled the stands. This edition of the World Trophy presented teams exploring always further the infinite resources of their sport and thanks to the very original competition format - notably the use of accessories - the event keeps getting more and more spectacular.
