A Japanese star is born
Teenage sensation Kakeru Tanigawa was hailed after becoming Japan鈥檚 youngest national gymnastics champion and dashing superstar Kohei Uchimura鈥檚 attempt for an 11th straight title.
鈥淣ew star, Tanigawa,鈥 the Yomiuri Shimbun said in a headline after the 19-year-old college student scored 172.496 points for overall victory in Tokyo on Sunday. 鈥淭he 19-year-old crushed the absolute king,鈥 the Sankei Shimbun also said in a headline. Uchimura, the two-time Olympic individual all-around gold medallist who last year won his 10th consecutive Japan championship, is on the comeback trail after injury and could finish only third. Kenzo Shirai, the world champion in the floor and vault, was runner-up.
