RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Latest on the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro (all times local):

2:45 p.m.

Chris Brooks' remarkable resurgence will reach its peak on Saturday when the captain of the U.S. men's gymnastics team competes in the all-around.

The 29-year-old Brooks, a first-time Olympian, will do all six events for the Americans as they try to earn a spot in Monday's eight-team final. Four-time national champion Sam Mikulak will also do the all-around for the U.S. as it hopes to return to the podium after fading during the finals in 2012.

Alex Naddour will do floor exercise, pommel horse, still rings and vault.
