Two gymnasts will be selected for the US Olympic team from the men’s trials. The first one will be the top-scorer after aggregating the scores over the two days of the trials. The second gymnast will be chosen after factoring in both the performance in the trials and the results of the top performers in three of the six individual apparatuses at the US Gymnastics Championships. The rest of the team will be chosen by a selection committee.
The selection committee will also select three alternates for both men and women for the Tokyo Olympics 2020.
The US Gymnastics Olympic Trials will be devoid of world champions Morgan Hurd and Chellsie Memmel and two-time Olympic medalist Laurie Hernandez. They have been ruled out of the trials due to injuries.
