He competed at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, winning a silver medal in men's team competition, as well as placing fourth in parallel bars and individual all-around.[1] At the World Gymnastics Championships he won gold medals in 1995 and 1997 in men's team competition, shared a bronze for the horizontal bar in 1995, and took the individual gold medal for parallel bars in 1997.
