    Olympic men's gymnastics results: Stephen Nedoroscik wins bronze for USA in 2024 pommel horse final

    No glasses? No problem for Stephen Nedoroscik.

    The Team USA specialist finished his Olympic debut with a second medal, a bronze in the pommel horse event final. He's the first individual medalist for the U.S. men's gymnastics team since 2016, when Alexander Naddour captured bronze on the same event.

    The 2024 pommel horse final marked a historic moment in men's gymnastics. Rhys McClenaghan won gold with a 15.533, marking Ireland's first Olympic medal in gymnastics. Nariman Kurbanov, who went first in the rotation, scored a 15.433 for silver and for Kazakhstan's first Olympic gymnastics medal.

    It's a day that will be remembered in men's gymnastics history, but especially for Nedoroscik fans.

    The Rubik's cube-loving gymnast became a hero when he helped the United States win bronze in the team final, its first team medal in 16 years. "Pommel Horse Guy," as he became known, was the only U.S. gymnast to qualify for an individual event final, allowing him to further his legacy on the apparatus.

    And that's what he did, scoring a 15.300 to narrowly clinch the bronze ahead of two-time defending champion Max Whitlock of Great Britain.

    The U.S. men's gymnastics team is now done at the Paris Olympics, but the squad is only getting started.

    The Sporting News tracked updates and highlights from Nedoroscik on pommel horse in the 2024 Olympics men's gymnastics finals. See below for more.
