Huntingdon’s Marissa King narrowly missed out on a place in the vault final after finishing 10th in qualifying at the World Gymnastics Championships in London.
King, 18, had been contention after a score of 13.850 had put in her in third place from the first two rounds of qualifying, however, improved performances from other competitors saw her slip outside a place for the final.
King was delighted with her vault performance and will now be looking to work towards a place at London 2012 when her scholarship starts in America from January.
