Japan’s Shinnosuke Oka gained his third gold medal of the Paris Games on Monday with a robust and exact routine on horizontal bar in a last riddled with errors.
Colombian teenager Angel Barajas took silver and Taiwan’s Tang Chia-hung and China’s Zhang Boheng shared bronze regardless of botched performances.
Oka, brimming with confidence after he gained gold within the crew and all-around occasions in addition to a bronze on the parallel bars earlier within the day, caught his touchdown for a rating of 14.533.
While 17-year-old Barajas equaled his mark, Oka remained forward of him because of his larger execution rating.

A brand new champion was assured within the occasion after Tokyo gold medalist Daiki Hashimoto of Japan didn’t qualify for the ultimate.
