The Turkey men's national artistic gymnastics team represents Turkey in FIG international competitions.
History
Aleko Mulos was the first ever Turkish man to compete at the Olympic Games, doing so in 1908.[1] Turkey has yet to field a team at the Olympics but had individual athletes compete at the 2016 and 2020 Olympic Games.[2] At the 2020 Olympic Games Ferhat Arıcan became the first Turkish male gymnast to win an Olympic medal, earning bronze on the parallel bars.[3]
At the 2023 World Championships the Turkish team finished 10th in qualifications. In doing so, they qualified a full team for the first time to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.[4]
