The Men's rings competition at the 2016 Summer Olympics was held at the HSBC Arena on 15 August.
The medals were presented by Bernard Rajzman IOC member, Brazil and Wolfgang Willam, FIG Executive Committee Member.
The top 8 qualifiers in the qualification phase (limit two per NOC), based on combined score of each apparatus, advanced to the individual all-around final. The finalists performed on each apparatus again. Qualification scores were then ignored, with only final round scores counting.
The gymnasts who ranked in the top eight qualified for the final. In the event of there being more than two gymnasts from same NOC, only the first two ranked among them would qualify for the final, with the next best ranked gymnast qualifying instead.
1 Saïd was forced to scratch from the final after breaking his leg during the qualification round.
2 van Gelder was removed by the Dutch NOC after he was under influence of alcohol during a night out.
