Turkey had sent their first men's team to the 1962 World Championships where they finished twentieth. In 2018 they sent a full team for women's artistic gymnastics for the first time.[1][2] At the 2019 World Championships, İbrahim Çolak became the first Turkish athlete to not only win a World Championships medal, but to become a World Champion, doing so on rings.[3] At that same competition Ahmet Önder won a silver on parallel bars the following day.[4]
