The U.S. men's gymnastics team won a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics, marking their first team podium finish since 2008. Japan clinched gold, narrowly defeating China by just 0.532 points, while China suffered stumbles that cost them the top spot. This victory for Japan is their eighth team gold, stemming from a strong final rotation that saw them overtake China. The U.S. team, which had previously finished fifth in qualifications, showcased a significant improvement in the finals. Great Britain also competed strongly but did not secure a medal, finishing behind the U.S. and China. Individual events are set to follow, with several U.S. gymnasts aiming for further success in the coming days.
