The 9th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships were held in Luxembourg on 12âÂÂ14 July 1930.
Of special note is that a Yugoslavian Olympic medallist from 1928, Anton Malej, died one day after the conclusion of these games resulting from an injury, on the Rings apparatus, incurred during the games.
â =Anton Malej of Yugoslavia could not finish the competition due to injuries sustained during the competition. This is particularly notable because, as stated above, those injuries led to his death one day after the conclusion of the competition. Those injuries proved fatal due to deficient gymnasium conditions in the substitute arena to which the competition was moved due to inclement weather conditions, as the competition was originally held outside.
â â =MalejâÂÂs teammate, Leon à  tukelj of Yugoslavia, could not finish the competition due to injuries sustained during the competition. This is particularly notable because, competing alongside his teammate, Malej, in conditions not suited for the competition and that also contributed to Malej's death being fatal, à  tukelj was nevertheless previously 1924 Olympic All-Around Champion and 1928 Olympic All-Around Bronze Medalist and was in top form at this competition, having scored a perfect score in his Optionals Horizontal Bar exercise.
