As the host of the upcoming Olympics, the United States was given an automatic berth in the group competition and did not send one to compete.Raymond Nancy December 1995 Fit to be tied International Gymnast 52–58 37 12
A number of ties were awarded at the event, including for the all-around title, shared by defending World all-around champion Maria Petrova and Kateryna Serebrianska, the defending World champion in all four event titles. This was Petrova's third consecutive World title; she tied this record with Maria Gigova. Bronze medalist Larisa Lukyanenko tied the two gold medalists after the first two events, but following the last two, she dropped to win bronze along with Yana Batyrshina.
The number of gymnasts in groups was reduced after the previous year from six to five.
