The apparatus finals and all-around qualification round were run concurrently on the first two days of the competition, with all gymnasts competing during the day before the apparatus finals were held.[2]

Russian gymnasts won four of the five individual events, with Hanna Rizatdinova from Ukraine being the only gymnast from another federation to win a gold medal (with hoop). Margarita Mamun from Russia lead the field in qualifications, but she made mistakes in three of four routines in the all-around final and fell to sixth place. Yana Kudryavtseva, also of the Russian Federation, won the all-around title after she performed more cleanly, and she was awarded the highest score of the competition, 18.70, for her clubs routine.[2] She became the youngest individual world all-around champion in rhythmic gymnastics history at the age of 15 years.[3] Rizatdinova won silver, and Melitina Staniouta from Belarus won bronze.[2]

In the group competition, Russia was less dominant, with only one gold in the 3 balls/2 ribbons final. The Belarussian group won the all-around for the first time since the 1998 World Championships.[4] Italy won silver and Russia bronze. In the apparatus finals, Spain won two medals, gold with 5 pairs of clubs and bronze with 3 balls/2 ribbons.[2] An Angolan group competed for the first time at the World Championships.[4]

The Longines Prize for Elegance was awarded to Rizatdinova.[5]
