Pommelled Horse, Men

Date	20 – 25 July 1980
Status	Olympic
Location	Dvorets sporta, Tsentralny stadion imeni V. I. Lenina, Moskva
Participants	65 from 14 countries

The format was the same as in 1976, with the best six gymnasts in the team all-around advancing to the apparatus final, but only two gymnasts from each nation could advance to the finals. The final apparatus score made up of 50% of the all-around total and a final optional program. Hungarian Zoltán Magyar was the defending champion, was World Champion in 1978-79, and was the clear favorite. Magyar led after qualifying and then scored a perfect 10.00 in the final round to defend his gold medal. Silver was won by Soviet Aleksandr Dityatin, one of his eight medals in gymnastics in Moskva. Magyar repeated the feat of Yugoslav Miroslav Cerar, who had won the Olympic pommelled horse in 1964-68. The two are usually considered the greatest ever practitioners on pommelled horse.
