Mario Macchiati (born 27 November 1999)[1] is an Italian artistic gymnast. In 2023, he helped the Italian men's team win its first-ever European team title. He represented Italy at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
Macchiati won a bronze medal on the parallel bars at the 2021 Koper World Challenge Cup.[2] He competed at the 2022 DTB Pokal Stuttgart and won a bronze medal with the Italian team in the mixed team competition.[3] At the 2022 Koper World Challenge Cup, he placed fourth on the parallel bars, fifth on the horizontal bar, and seventh on the pommel horse.[4]
Macchiati won a gold medal on the parallel bars at the 2023 DTB Pokal Stuttgart.[5] He then placed fourth in the parallel bars final at the Cairo World Cup.[6] At the 2023 European Championships, Macchiati won a team gold medal alongside Yumin Abbadini, Lorenzo Minh Casali, Matteo Levantesi, and Marco Lodadio. This marked the first time Italy won a team title at the European Men's Artistic Gymnastics Championships.[7] He won the all-around title at the 2023 Italian Championships.[8]
At the 2023 World Championships, Macchiati and the Italian team placed sixth in the qualification round and earned a team berth for the 2024 Summer Olympics. This was the first time the Italian men's gymnastics team qualified for the Olympic Games since 2012.[9] This result also meant they qualified for the team final, where Macchiati contributed on five apparatuses toward Italy's eighth-place finish.[10] Macchiati finished 22nd in the all-around during the qualification round, but he initially missed out on the all-around final due to the two-per-country rule.[11] However, after teammate Lorenzo Minh Casali withdrew, Macchiati competed in the all-around final and placed 15th.[12]
Macchiati and the Italian team won a silver medal behind the United States at the 2024 DTB Pokal Stuttgart.[13] He then won a bronze medal in the team competition at the 2024 European Championships.[14] He also qualified for the parallel bars event final, but he fell halfway through his routine and placed seventh.[15] He was selected to compete at the 2024 Summer Olympics alongside Yumin Abbadini, Nicola Bartolini, Lorenzo Minh Casali, and Carlo Macchini.[16] The team qualified for the team final, where they finished sixth.[17]
