China's Deng Linlin has won the gold medal in the women's beam finals following a tight contest.
Linlin scored 15.600 in her faultless routine, which gave her an early lead with eight gymnasts left to go.
Romania's Catalina Ponor, who was a favourite for the gold medal, stumbled during her stint on the beam by taking 2 1/2 turn instead of a double, which lowered her difficulty score.
Despite a slight dip, the Romanian managed to sit in the bronze medal position with a score of 15.066. However, her place was short-lived as the USA's Alexandra Raisman, who won gold in the team event, launched an inquiry following her routine on the beam.
The American scored a 14.099, which put her in fourth place, but was upgraded to the bronze spot after the judges accepted her protest following a dispute over feet placement.
China's Sui Lu secured the silver medal following a routine, which nabbed her a score of 15.500.
