Wednesday's men's gymnastics individual all-around final came down to the final event, and it was Japan's Daiki Hashimoto who emerged on top. It is the third straight Olympic gold in the event for the host country, as Kohei Uchimara won the event at both the 2012 and 2016 Olympics.
Through five rotations of competition, China's Xiao Ruoteng had control of the lead. He claimed the silver medal after Hashimoto leapt up the standings in the final rotation.
Russian Olympic Committee’s Nikita Nagornyy earned bronze, while China's Sun Wei just missed out on a medal in fourth place.
