Fall guy Yang snatches 2nd gold for China

STUTTGART, Germany: Yang Wei survived a fall from the high bar to give China their second gold medal of the world gymnastics championships here on Friday.

A day after helping China win a record-equalling eighth men's team crown the 27-year-old Yang took his seventh world gold.

The veteran had looked to be coasting to victory when he dominated the competition, scoring highest on three of the six apparatus - pommel horse, rings and parallel bars.
