Team USA is in medal contention in men's gymnastics Monday at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Summer Olympic Games.
The men's team, which finished fifth in 2012 in London, sits in second place after qualifying, just 0.560 points behind the reigning gold medalists from China.
Russia finished third in qualifying, while the current world champions from Japan were fourth.
We saw plenty of drama during qualifying, most horrifically the broken leg Samir Ait Said of France suffered as he came off the vault. The French did not advance to the final.
The United States team struggled at times during qualifying, most particularly on the pommel horse.
