Oleg Verniaiev walked away heartbroken in the men's all-around after falling a tenth of a point shy of winning gold. He made sure to leave no doubt in the parallel bars Tuesday at the 2016 Rio Games.
The Ukrainian earned a score of 16.041 in his routine, capturing the gold by 0.141 points over American Danell Leyva. Verniaiev's routine was actually graded slightly worse than his all-around performance, but he nonetheless wore his favorite title well.
