'Pommel horse guy' Stephen Nedoroscik wins another bronze at 2024 Paris Olympics

Stephen Nedoroscik has won yet another bronze medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics after finishing on the podium in the men's pommel horse final. 

The 25-year-old, Massachusetts native registered a score of 15.300 on Saturday to claim his second prize of the summer, trailing gold medalist Rhys McClenaghan, of Ireland, and runner-up Nariman Kurbanov, of Kazakhstan. 

Briton Max Whitlock, the twice defending Olympic champion on the apparatus, was edged off the medal podium by 0.1 point, finishing in fourth despite besting his qualification score.

Nedoroscik, dubbed as the 'Pommel Horse Guy,' went viral last week after helping the US to a third pace medal finish in the team event. He's also been likened to Superman's alter ego, Clark Kent, due to the googles he wears while competing.

Reacted to Nedoroscik's second bronze finish on Saturday, a fan on X posted: 'Stephen Nedorosciak proving he's the specialist we all admire!'

'GLASSES GOAT,' wrote another user while someone else said: 'Clark Kent got it done. I'm so happy!'

A different fan also pointed out that Nedoroscik, who he described as a 'nerd boy,' 'made the pommel horsel cool!!' 

Competing at his first ever Olympics, Nedoroscik is not only a former two-time NCAA champ with Penn State but also a world champion. His four US pommel horse titles are tied for the most in history, too.
