Nedoroscik was chosen to be a part of the Men’s Artistic Gymnastics team at the 2024 Olympic Games –alongside Brody Malone, Frederick Richard, Asher Hong, and Paul Juda — despite only competing in one event: the pommel horse. Waiting nearly two and a half hours for his time to shine during the team finals, Nedoroscik ultimately scored a 14.866 on the pommel horse, helping clinch Team USA’s place on the podium. Earning the bronze medal was an impressive feat for Nedoroscik and his teammates, as this third-place finish marked Team USA’s first medal in Men’s Artistic Gymnastics since the 2008 Olympic Games.

Nedoroscik was up for a medal of his own in the pommel horse final, where he scored a 15.300 to snag the bronze. This marked Team USA’s first individual medal in Men’s Artistic Gymnastics since the 2016 Olympic Games.

Not only did taking home two medals launch him into the limelight as an impressive athlete, but it also earned him nicknames like “The Specialist” and “Pommel Horse Guy,” with individuals all across the globe celebrating his athleticism, as well as his relatively awkward demeanor. With memes surrounding his love for Rubik’s Cubes — as well as his tendency to take off his eyeglasses before his pommel horse performances, often compared to Clark Kent’s transformation into Superman — we seemingly cannot open social media without seeing a meme about Nedoroscik.
