Beth Tweddle entered the 2006 World Championships as the two-time World Bronze Medalist on uneven bars. In Aarhus she finally earned the top spot, eclipsing defending World Champion Nastia Liukin with impressive release moves that included a Khorkina-Gienger combination and a Ray.

While Liukin had an awkward landing on her dismount, Tweddle stuck hers cold, and became the first British World Champion in gymnastics.
