US Olympic Men’s Gymnastics Trials 2021 Preview
The trials will feature 21 men competing with the hopes of securing spots on the U.S. Olympic Team, and will take place over two days:
June 24: Men’s Day 1, 6 p.m.
June 26: Men’s Day 2, 2:30 p.m.
All eyes will be on Stanford’s Brody Malone, 21, who won the all-around title at both the U.S. and NCAA championships, the latter of which he says helped prepare him for this.
“NCAAs was definitely a big confidence booster,” Malone said. “I think I was definitely more nervous going into that competition than I was this one just because there’s so much on the line for the team.”
“My coach, Syque [Caesar], told me before I got back on campus [this year] that NCAAs is the only competition besides the Olympic Games where you’re trying to hit for a team – it’s not just individual – so doing well there definitely gave me the confidence booster that I can do well under that kind of pressure,” Malone added.
Sam Mikulak will be another athlete with a compelling storyline. Mikulak is looking to qualify for his third Olympics. He finished third in the all-around at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships, and is a six-time U.S. all-around champion. He will be retiring after the Olympics this year, and he recently said he thinks he’s leaving the sport in good hands.
“That kid’s the future. I’m just this old guy trying to keep up with him now. I’m just glad that there’s someone to fill my shoes when I’m gone — and overstep me right now,” Mikulak said about Malone. “My goal is just to make the (Olympic) team. I know I’m not at my best, and I’m just trying to keep up with him.”
Shane Wiskus is another one to watch. Wiskus is the reigning 2021 NCAA rings and parallel bars champion. “I’ve also had the privilege of competing in the college season,” Wiskus said this week. “I do have some competition experience under my belt from the last couple months, so this is just another competition for me, another chance to prove myself.”
Other notable competitors in the men’s events include:
- 2017 U.S. all-around champion Yul Moldauer, who is coming off a first-place finish at the U.S. Championships in the parallel bars, where he also finished second overall.
- Brandon Briones, who finished fourth in the All-Around at the U.S. Championships.
- Both Alec Yoder and Stephen Nedoroscik, who are the top contenders competing in the pommel horse.
- Robert Neff, Ian Gunther, Matt Wenske, Paul Juda, Colin Van Wicklen, Gage Dyer, Khoi Young, Donnell Whittenburg and Cameron Bock will also competing in various events.
