Individual All-Around, Men

Date	5 – 7 September 1960 — 08:00-17:00
Status	Olympic
Location	Terme di Caracalla, Roma
Participants	130 from 28 countries
Format	Compulsory and optional exercise performed on all six apparatuses.

Soviet Borys Shakhlin won the all-around gold medal in Rome in a very close contest with Japan’s Takashi Ono, who took silver. Ono had also won a silver medal in all-around at Melbourne, trailing Shakhlin’s teammate, Viktor Chukarin, as Shakhlin finished eighth in 1956. The bronze medal went to Yury Titov, who had also won the bronze in Melbourne. The medalists and placements were exactly the same as they had been at the 1958 World Championships. The Soviet and Japanese dominance in Rome was evident here as gymnasts from those two nations took the top seven places, with Yugoslavian Miroslav Cerar placing eighth as the first gymnast from another nation.

Shakhlin won seven medals in Rome, equalling the mark set in 1920 in Antwerp by American shooters Lloyd Spooner and Willis Lee, and by Soviet female gymnast Mariya Horokhovska at Helsinki in 1952. The mark of seven medals at a single Olympics would last until 1980 when Soviet gymnast Aleksandr Dityatin won eight in Moscow. Michael Phelps won eight Olympic medals in both 2004 and 2008 as the only other Olympian to better Shakhlin’s 1960 performance. Shakhlin failed to medal in 1960 only in the floor exercise. He competed at three Olympics, 1956-64, eventually winning 13 medals and 7 gold medals. Ono competed at four Olympics, 1952-64, equalling Shakhlin with 13 medals, and winning 5 gold medals.
