Soviet gymnasts dominated the competition; Carmen Rischer, the all-around champion from the previous World Championships (where dominant Communist nations such as the Soviet Union and Bulgaria did not send competitors), placed sixth, to the displeasure of German fans, who disrupted the competition by booing her final all-around score for more than ten minutes. Galima Shugurova won silver behind Irina Deriugina in the all-around but went on to win three of the event finals.8. World Championships in Basel, Switzerland (13.-16.
