He showed a stable performance without any mistakes on his specialty, the parallel bars, scoring a high score of over 15 points and quickly taking the lead. Then, in the final event, the horizontal bar, the 20-year-old rising star won the gold medal, marking Japan’s fourth consecutive victory. He also achieved a double crown with the team event.
