Stephen Nedoroscik Shines on Pommel Horse at Paris Olympics

The American gymnast delivered a stellar routine, securing the highest score for Team USA in the men's qualification round.

  • Nedoroscik's 15.2 score topped all American routines and edged out two-time Olympic champion Max Whitlock.
  • He handled the pressure after teammate Brody Malone's fall, ensuring the team's score remained competitive.
  • As the only specialist on the team, Nedoroscik focused solely on the pommel horse, a historically challenging apparatus for the U.S.
  • Post-routine, he became the team's most vocal supporter, cheering and assisting his teammates.
  • Nedoroscik's performance marks his successful Olympic debut, following his world championship win in 2021.
