The American arrived at the Tokyo Olympics on the back of winning a gold medal in the Pan American Championships. During his three matches before the final, he dominated all his opponents, scoring 23 points across those matches. In addition, he did not concede a single point in either of those matches which displayed his talent.

However, the 21-year-old found himself in a tough battle for gold against Georgia’s Geno Petriashvili. Steveson trailed 7-8 with just under a second to go. However, he pulled off a spectacular maneuver to take an enthralling victory en route to his first Olympic gold medal.
