The first Uchimura Kōhei Domination

These are the rankings of athletes in Men’s Artistic Gymnastics who competed between 2013 and 2016; they include 4 competitions:
– 2009 World Championships
London, Great Britain 🇬🇧
– 2010 World Championships
Rotterdam, Netherlands 🇳🇱
– 2011 World Championships
Tokyo, Japan 🇯🇵
– 2012 Olympic Games
London, Great Britain 🇬🇧
53 gymnasts won at least one medal at these World Championships or Olympic Games.

In order to adequately evaluate the significance of each medal in men’s gymnastics, a bonus system has been implemented. A bronze medal does not hold the same value as a gold medal, and the Olympic Games are esteemed as the preeminent event for any gymnast. Consequently, each medal possesses a distinct worth contingent upon the type of competition:

For example: a silver medal won on the Pommel Horse at Worlds is worth 2+1=3 points
A gold medal in the All Around at the Olympics is worth 3+2+2=7 points
