Olympic men's gymnastics results: Shinnosuke Oka becomes fourth consecutive Japanese gymnast to win all-around title

For the fourth Olympics in a row, a Japanese gymnast has gone home with a gold medal in the men's all-around final. This year's victor is 20-year-old Shinnosuke Oka, who came second in men's qualifying.

Oka defeated all-around favorite Boheng Zhang of China by just over two-hundredths of a point, earning his second gold medal of the games after Japan finished first in the team event on Monday. Americans Paul Juda and Frederick Richard finished 14th and 15th, respectively, unable to follow up on their team event bronze medal-winning performances.

The all-around was competitive, and Oka was not in the lead for the whole competition, facing threats from both the Chinese and Ukrainians throughout. Despite their challenges, he emerged on top, following in the footsteps of Japanese all-around gold medalists Daiki Hashimoto (Tokyo 2021), who finished in sixth this year, and Kōhei Uchimura (London 2012, Rio 2016).

Olympics gymnastics live results, highlights from men's all-around finals

(All times Eastern)

2:15 p.m. — Oka becomes the fourth consecutive Japanese gymnast to win the men's Olympic all-around final, defeating the favorite Zhang by 0.233 points. Xiao claims the bronze with Ukraine's Kovtun just missing out on the podium. For Team USA, Richard finished in 15th, just behind Juda in 14th. Here is the official top five after the sixth and final rotation.

2:12 p.m. — Zhang needed to be nearly perfect on the high bar to beat Oka, faltering on a handstand but sticking his landing perfectly. Despite hitting his routine, he pulled in only a 14.633, not enough to grab the gold medal. Nevertheless, Zhang does claim silver with his teammates, Xiao, claiming bronze.

2:06 p.m. — Oka all but guarantees himself the gold medal with a beautiful performance on the high bar, his 14.500 vaulting him back to the top of the standings in front of Xiao, who is also guaranteed a silver or bronze medal.

2:00 p.m. — Xiao does a phenomenal high bar routine, looking to remain in medal position from last rotation. He scores a 14.366 to put himself in a good spot.

1:58 p.m. — Richard is up next on floor. He steps out one foot at the end of his first pass but has a successful rest of his routine, but his 13.200 won't be enough to get him close to the podium.

1:52 p.m. — Great Britain's Joe Fraser, in fifth place after the last rotation, nails his high bar routine, starting off the apparatus with a bang. He scores a 14.266, while Illia Kovtun, in fourth place after last round, scores a 14.700 on floor.

1:46 p.m. — The final rotation sees Richard on Floor and Juda on pommel horse, with the three leaders all on horizontal bar. Oka seeks his second gold medal of the games after Japan won the team event. Xiao seeks to add a medal to his collection that includes an all-around silver from Tokyo.

1:45 p.m. — After the penultimate rotation, China's Xiao and Zhang find themselves back on the podium just under Oka, who is back in front with a steady lead. Zhang has managed to move from 20th to 3rd in the span of four rounds. The Ukrainians sit in 4th and 7th, with Richard moving to 12th and Juda in 16th. Here are the top five after Rotation 5.

1:30 p.m. — Richard is up on horizontal bar, and he puts up a huge routine with lots of difficult connections. He scores a 14.400, almost 0.300 higher than his qualifying routine.

1:25 p.m. — Zhang scores a massive 15.300 on parallel bars, inching him closer to the podium he was predicted to finish on.

1:22 p.m. — Juda does well in his floor routine, sticking his first pass and finishing with a score of 13.533. Verniaiev has a bit of a bobble on the horizontal bar but manages to stay on, putting down a 12.700.

1:16 p.m. — Juda is now on floor exercise and Richard on horizontal bar with the Ukrainians for the fifth rotation.

1:15 p.m. — In a shocking turn of events, the Ukrainians excel on the parallel bars, snagging them the top two spots after the fourth rotation concludes. Oka is joined on the podium by China's Xiao, looking to avenge his silver medal from Tokyo. Juda is tied with Dolci in 17th, and Richard sits in 19th. Here are the top five gymnasts after Rotation 4.

1:10 p.m. — Richard puts down a very solid routine on parallel bars, sticking a blind double front dismount. He nets a 14.133, slightly lower than his qualifying score.

1:02 p.m. — Ukraine's Verniaiev vaults above Oka on the leaderboard with a 15.000 on parallel bars, and Great Britain's Jarman scores a massive 15.166 on vault.

1:00 p.m. — Juda scores a 13.766 on bars with a stellar routine, nailing his dismount. He bests his 13.333 from qualifying.

12:50 p.m. — During Rotation 3, Canada's Felix Dolci fell from the horizontal bar after his hand grips ripped at the beginning of a skill, ripping his hand with it. He was allowed to repeat his exercise at the end of the rotation because there's a rule that states if routines are interrupted for reasons beyond a gymnast's control, like a hand grip breaking, they may repeat it. He falls in his re-try, but is cheered on by the crowd to finish the routine.

12:48 p.m. — Richard moves onto the parallel bars and Juda the horizontal bar for Rotation 4. Parallel bars were by far Richard's best event in qualification, while horizontal bar was Juda's worst.

12:45 p.m. — Halfway through the men's all-around final, the top five does not look how most would have predicted it coming in. The Ukrainians have surprised, performing well enough to claim two of the top five spots so far, and Zhang has vaulted himself back in the running.

The Americans, meanwhile, are likely out of medal contention, with Juda in 17th and Richard in 22nd. Hashimoto, surprisingly, also looks like he might be out of the running in 18th. Here are the top five finishers after Rotation 3.

12:38 p.m. — Richard does a difficult vault and has a small hop on his landing, scoring a 14.100, the second lowest in his group during the rotation.

12:37 p.m. — Juda's parallel bars routine ends with a small hop on the dismount, but it was a solid effort nonetheless. He scores 13.866, not quite as high as his 14.033 from qualifying.

12:30 p.m. — Verniaiev, Rio 2016 all-around silver medalist, lands a very difficult vault for a score of 14.400. Current leader Oka nets 13.666 on rings.

12:25 p.m. — Richard moves on to vault and Juda to parallel bars, his second highest scoring event from qualification.

12:23 p.m. — We are one-third of the way through today's men's all-around final, and the Americans have fallen to the bottom of the leaderboard. Juda is tied with Germany's Nils Dunkel in 21st, and Richard sits in 23rd. Zhang is still low in 16th and Hashimoto is just in front of him in 15th. Here are the top five finishers after Rotation 2:

12:13 p.m. — Zhang redeems his floor debacle with a huge hit on pommel horse, putting down a 14.333.

12:10 p.m. — Juda went for the stick on his vault but unfortunately he takes couple steps and bounces one foot off the mat. He scores 13.733, much lower than his qualifying score which superseded 14.500.

12:06 p.m. — Defending Olympic all-around champion Hashimoto has also taken a fall on pommel horse, seriously denting his score early on in the competition. The field is looking like it might open up.

12:05 p.m. — Richard completes his ring routine with a small hop on the dismount, bouncing back from his disappointing pommel horse performance. He nets a 13.600, scoring higher than his 13.500 in qualifying.

12:01 p.m. — Richard moves to rings and Juda to vault for Rotation 2.

12:00 p.m. — The first of six rotations has concluded, with Juda sitting in 17th and Richard in 23rd. Notably, medal hopeful Zhang is in 20th. Here are the top five finishers after Rotation 1:

11:56 a.m. — Zhang, the all-around favorite, falls on his second floor pass and bobbles the landing on another. Tough start for China's medal hopeful.

11:55 a.m. — Juda is up on rings. He hits his routine cleanly, making no obvious mistakes and fighting to stick his landing. Juda nets a 13.433, besting his qualifying score by 0.033.

11:45 a.m. — Defending gold medalist Hashimoto puts down a very solid floor routine, scoring 14.633. Great Britain's Jake Jarman, however, earned 14.900 on his floor exercise just before, rocketing him into first place.

11:43 a.m. — Richard is up first out of the Americans on pommel horse. Unfortunately, he slips off halfway through his routine, hurting his chances for a medal right out the gates. He scores 12.733, almost a full point below his qualifying score on the event of 13.633.

11:30 a.m. — It's time! A gold medalist will soon be crowned in Paris as the men's gymnastics all-around is set to begin. Here are the 24 athletes competing for a spot on the podium and their qualifying scores:
