Japan names Men’s Olympic team

Hashimoto Daiki
Kaya Kazuma
Tanigawa Wataru
Kitazono Takeru

And Kohei, age-32, for the plus one pick.

In the complicated and very competitive Japanese selection procedure, Kohei tied with Yonekura Hidenobu, the Vault specialist.

Kohei got the tie-breaker for his higher world ranking.

Simone and Kohei Uchimura will be the biggest NAMES in Gymnastics at the Olympics.
