The top qualifiers

Japan's Shohei Kawakami was fourth in qualification on 83.699 but is not in the final, because Oka and Hashimoto ranked ahead of him.
The Japanese pair
Oka is the Olympic all-around champion from Paris 2024. Hashimoto won the world title in Jakarta in 2025 and is the defending champion. In qualification, Oka's 0.466 lead came largely from horizontal bar, where Hashimoto fell and scored 13.700 to Oka's 14.500. In Tuesday's team final Hashimoto competed on all six apparatus and scored 14.866 on horizontal bar.
The challengers
Dukhno had the best floor score of qualification, 14.700, and scored 14.500 on floor in the team final. Jarman's vault, 14.900 in qualification and 14.866 in the team final, is the strongest of any all-arounder. Kovtun led parallel bars in qualification with 14.900, and Barajas scored 14.900 on horizontal bar in the team final, the best on that apparatus. Fred Richard of the United States qualified 11th with 82.098.
What decides an all-around final
With six apparatus and no dropped scores, the gymnast with the fewest big deductions usually wins. In qualification the gap from first to eighth was 2.267, more than the cost of a fall. Among the top eight, the widest spread was on pommel horse, from 13.133 to 14.533, and the narrowest on parallel bars, where all eight scored between 14.300 and 14.900.
Results will be posted on our Rotterdam 2026 hub after the final. Profiles: Oka, Hashimoto, Jarman, Kovtun.
