Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.\n\nAt such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.\n\nThe Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.\n\n**Your support makes all the difference.**\n\nGabriel Langton has been released from hospital after the horror fall he suffered midway through the men’s team gymnastics final on Friday night.\n\nThe 18-year-old received extensive treatment before being taken from the arena on a stretcher after missing a grab through his high bar routine and landing on his head and neck.\n\nTeam [England](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/england) said in a statement: “Gabriel was transferred to the hospital as a precautionary measure overnight and underwent multiple scans today, with very positive results.\n\nGabriel Langton was absent from the podium as England received their silver medals (Jane Barlow/PA)(PA Wire)\n\n“Thankfully, he has been cleared of any serious injury complications and will be discharged to return to the team hotel this evening.\n\n“He is in good spirits and hugely grateful for the many messages of support and the excellent care provided by the medical teams. He is looking forward to being reunited with the team to celebrate his silver medal.”\n\nUndo\n\nUndo\n\n[](https://quickbooks.intuit.com/r/product-update/quickbooks-improvements-2026)[The QuickBooks updates small businesses asked for.

It was the first time England’s men had failed to win the team event since [Delhi](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/delhi) in 2010.\n\nLangton’s fall clearly affected the team through the remaining rotation and Whitehouse said: “It was really tough. We just had to reset, try to put it to one side mentally and focus on the job we had to do. I think everyone should be proud of the way we carried on after Gabe’s fall.”\n\n### More about\n\nPromoted stories\n\n[](https://rtb-use.mfadsrvr.com/click/aHGnL77RI_yXgGlt6X2KiBctxrRDoZ6OeIG_zX0p4q3cUe-sYcP03TolKzJfqkjyGG6yD3pxcbNXvnbQGqqXX9YA25aO32g_wXuaagvsGfzUyXqkEn1IPOl2bVPXjTDf2fxThJ30ImOrFfBoavAHja82MFfJXPuFlqcyF6QcnAehFqeuVbHN-QPFRWL331Uh0ihM4efzDsJPxSUS0B0JsjmWT3vebYi_Yg3sDAdyXysvzgL368MbspthRgkZz8SR09zkGRx8uiW97OI9PifEfpxB65vwUJDgHyIiB89Z0JslwZEPUNscz9ZJ85uWu_5u3iXPtFeYAQQ10WAd_EyUqdFpik8AFFN088twq2r-8kW8wKGDY-2wzN-GsJDpjXVen7VJy7J_etNOkac9xaPC-PevLDTWB88yL8T2xAaANHD7se3BE9PEfLfD28HMJaNgyQPXn1uG56-_KcU461Y9ClYpPNtFITaTdmePGG9ErKq5U_2dNv_FtuNswOV-wJXbgw3uFRCiQC_kOO0Ajg005QP_6b2KvvqbLXtCvCIs//)[If You're Collecting Under $3950 In SS a Month: You're Eligible for These 10 Discounts SilverPenny | [Sponsored](https://popup.taboola.com/en/?template=colorbox&utm_source=eslmedia-theindependent&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=thumbs-feed-01-rd:Below%20Article%20Thumbnails%20|%20Card%201:)[Sponsored](https://popup.taboola.com/en/?template=colorbox&utm_source=eslmedia-theindependent&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=thumbs-feed-01-rd:Below%20Article%20Thumbnails%20|%20Card%201:) Learn more](https://rtb-use.mfadsrvr.com/click/aHGnL77RI_yXgGlt6X2KiBctxrRDoZ6OeIG_zX0p4q3cUe-sYcP03TolKzJfqkjyGG6yD3pxcbNXvnbQGqqXX9YA25aO32g_wXuaagvsGfzUyXqkEn1IPOl2bVPXjTDf2fxThJ30ImOrFfBoavAHja82MFfJXPuFlqcyF6QcnAehFqeuVbHN-QPFRWL331Uh0ihM4efzDsJPxSUS0B0JsjmWT3vebYi_Yg3sDAdyXysvzgL368MbspthRgkZz8SR09zkGRx8uiW97OI9PifEfpxB65vwUJDgHyIiB89Z0JslwZEPUNscz9ZJ85uWu_5u3iXPtFeYAQQ10WAd_EyUqdFpik8AFFN088twq2r-8kW8wKGDY-2wzN-GsJDpjXVen7VJy7J_etNOkac9xaPC-PevLDTWB88yL8T2xAaANHD7se3BE9PEfLfD28HMJaNgyQPXn1uG56-_KcU461Y9ClYpPNtFITaTdmePGG9ErKq5U_2dNv_FtuNswOV-wJXbgw3uFRCiQC_kOO0Ajg005QP_6b2KvvqbLXtCvCIs// \"If You're Collecting Under $3950 In SS a Month: You're Eligible for These 10 Discounts\")","source_name":"The Independent","source_url":"https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/england-max-whitlock-delhi-press-association-b3021564.html","url":"https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/england-max-whitlock-delhi-press-association-b3021564.html","author":"Mark Staniforth","author_name":"Mark Staniforth","published_at":"2026-07-25T19:55:06.000Z","publication_date":"2026-07-25T19:55:06.000Z","image_url":"https://static.independent.co.uk/2026/07/25/21/a9c405a2e2cd8b3eeabdc97984c5867eY29udGVudHNlYXJjaGFwaSwxNzg1MDk1MjE3-2.85402548.jpg","category":"sport","topic":"sport","tags":[],"political_bias":null,"bias_score":null,"confidence_score":null,"credibility_score":null,"factual_quality":null,"reading_time":4,"word_count":633,"view_count":0,"breaking":false,"breaking_news":false,"ai_analysis":null,"fact_check_status":"unverified","archive_status":"hot","language":null}}
