The qualification and final rounds took place on September 18, 20, and 22nd at the Olympic Gymnastics Hall.[1] There were 89 competitors from 23 nations.[2] Each nation could send a team of 6 gymnasts or up to 3 individual gymnasts. The event was won by Vladimir Artemov of the Soviet Union, the nation's sixth victory in the event (then the most of any nation; Japan tied this total in 2016). The Soviets swept the medals, with Valeri Liukin taking silver and Dmitri Bilozertchev bronze. It was the third medal sweep in the men's all-around; France had done it in 1900 and Japan in 1972.
