Click on above photo for video highlights.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Nedoroscik may only compete in one event on the U.S. men\u2019s gymnastics team, but he\u2019s still had a long, successful week at the Paris Summer Olympics. Since Monday\u2019s viral performance and momentous Team USA win, Nedoroscik \u2014 aka \u201cPommel Horse Guy\u201d \u2014 has become somewhat of a household name. The former Penn State gymnast cemented his legacy even further Saturday morning, earning his second bronze medal of the games.<\/p>\n<p>And he has become one of the breakout stars of these Olympics. The U.S. men&#8217;s gymnastics team brought 25-year-old former Penn State gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik to Paris with one assignment: hit pommel horse routines. He&#8217;s the 2021 world champion in the event and competes one of the most difficult routines in the world on what is traditionally a low-scoring apparatus for Team USA.<\/p>\n<p>Nedoroscik, who already left his mark once this week when he helped end U.S. men\u2019s gymnastics team\u2019s 16-year medal drought, has once again proven his status as pommel horse extraordinaire. His routine knocked two-time Olympic gold medalist Max Whitlock out of third place, ending the British gymnast\u2019s winning streak in the event.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1768\" height=\"1018\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-47979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM.png 1768w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM-1024x590.png 1024w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM-768x442.png 768w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM-1536x884.png 1536w, https:\/\/llleaguesportsvideos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-04-at-12.21.02-PM-70x40.png 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1768px) 100vw, 1768px\" \/>\\<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Penn State University graduate and gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik has won his second bronze medal in the 2024 Olympic Games.
