Pommelled Horse, Men

Date	18 – 22 October 1964
Status	Olympic
Location	Tōkyō Taiikukan, Shibuya, Tokyo
Participants	128 from 29 countries

As in 1960, the best six gymnasts in the individual all-around advanced to the apparatus final. The final apparatus score was made up of 50% of the all-around total and a final optional program. Yugoslavian Miroslav Cerar had won this event at the 1962 World Championships and the 1961 and 1963 European Championships. In Tokyo he had the highest qualifying score and then posted the best final round to win easily. Cerar would win again at the 1968 Olympics and the 1966 World Championships and is often considered the greatest ever pommelled horse practitioner. Behind him Japan’s Shuji Tsurumi won the silver medal, followed by Soviet Yury Tsapenko in third.
