Russia returned to the top of the podium Saturday in the men's modern pentathlon, as Alexander Lesun took gold at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
Lesun beat out Ukraine's Pavlo Tymoshchenko by just seven points for gold, while Ismael Marcelo Hernandez Uscanga of Mexico held off both France's Valentin Prades and Italy's Riccardo De Luca by a single point to secure bronze.
