McClenaghan all but secures spot in pommel horse final
Olympic champion Rhys McClenaghan almost guarantees his place in the Commonwealth Games pommel horse final with a flawless performance.
Olympic gymnastics champion Rhys McClenaghan has all but secured his place in the Commonwealth Games pommel horse final after posting the highest score of 14.500 with a flawless new routine. All eyes in the Emirates Arena were on the 27-year-old, who won silver in Birmingham in 2022. After dismounting, he celebrated with a little jig. McClenaghan tops the qualifying standings after two subdivisions, virtually ensuring he will compete in Monday's final. Official confirmation will come after the third qualifying subdivision at 17:30 BST, but the Olympic champion already holds a comfortable lead over his closest rivals.
