Japan's Daiki Hashimoto wins fourth straight men's all-around gold at world gymnastics championships
ROTTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) -- Daiki Hashimoto of Japan soared to gold during the men's all-around final at the world gymnastics championships on Thur
Rotterdam, Netherlands witnessed Daiki Hashimoto of Japan secure his fourth consecutive men's all-around gold at the world gymnastics championships on Thursday. The 25-year-old showed off his skills, particularly on the high bar, where he scored 14.766, leading to a total of 85.988. Despite a sluggish start on the floor exercise, Hashimoto maintained his focus and climbed his way up the podium.
This string of victories, spanning from 2021, places him just behind Japan's Kohei Uchimura, who won six consecutive all-around titles between 2009 and 2015. Competitors such as Yang Haonan of China, Joe Fraser of Great Britain, and Arsenii Dukhno of Russia, while impressive in their own right, fell behind the Japanese superstar.
American gymnast Frederick Richard and his teammate Danila Leykin also participated in the final, finishing eighth and eleventh respectively.
