Four American men participated in qualifying on Friday but none were able to reach Sunday’s final. Brendan Anderson came the closest as he was eighth in his group in the combined event but a lower score in the swimming portion might have done him in as he finished with 1135 points and 1154 was the last qualifier. Sam Ruddock scored 1056 doing his best work in the pool while Joshua Spegman (977) and Justin Torrellas (913) were well off the mark.

Saturday will be the final day of competition for the Americans as Samantha Achterberg and Isabella Isaksen compete in the women’s final.
