Stephen Nedoroscik has now been described as a sleeper agent, akin to Clark Kent with the way he takes off his glasses before swinging into action, but most may refer to him as the ‘Pommel Horse Guy’.

Teammates Richard, Malone, Juda, and Hong had completed 17 straight routines without a miss, putting the Americans in position to reach the medal stand for the first time since 2008 in Beijing.
