日本男子体操チームはパリ五輪で団体総合金メダルを獲得しており、今回の世界選手権での連覇が期待されている。
オランダのロッテルダムで行われている体操の世界選手権で、団体総合連覇を狙う日本男子の視界は良好だ。予選は2位の英国に3点以上の差をつけて首位通過。20日(日本時間21日)の決勝をにらみ、橋本大輝(日本生命・セントラルスポーツ)は「100%を出せれば点数はついてくる。自信を持ってやっていきたい」と意気込む。
日本男子、予選首位 個人総合は岡慎之助1位、橋本大輝2位―世界体操
パリ五輪団体総合金メダルの力を示したが、決勝ではもっと得点を伸ばす余地がある。鉄棒は橋本とスペシャリストの前田楓丞(ハヤブサSC)が落下。パリ五輪3冠の岡慎之助、川上翔平(ともに徳洲会)の好演技でカバーした。橋本と前田が得意種目を無難にこなすだけでも、さらに得点は伸びるだろう。
ゆか、あん馬、つり輪、跳馬の4種目は僅差で英国が上回った。日本は強みの平行棒、鉄棒でどれだけ稼げるかが勝負のカギを握る。ライバルと目された中国はパリ五輪個人総合2位のエース張博恒が欠場し、予選は4位。決勝では挽回を期して臨んでくる。
3位以内に入れば2028年ロサンゼルス五輪出場枠を獲得できるとはいえ、日本にとっては最低限の目標。岡は「金メダルへの思いが演技につながる。絶対に勝ちたい」。気合十分に戦いを待っている。(ロッテルダム時事)

Takayuki Suzuki, who is 39 years old and has participated in six Paralympics, says, ``We need young athletes.'' Yujiro Seto said with a grim expression, ``I'm not satisfied with the bronze medal.''

The World Boxing Association (WBA) featherweight title match was canceled on the 17th due to poor physical condition of Brandon Figueroa, who was overweight at the weigh-in the previous day and was stripped of his title. Kazuki Kameda, who passed the weigh-in, lost his chance to win the title, and his camp is appealing for disadvantageous relief for those who adhered to the rules and clarification of the rules.

At the men's gymnastics world championship qualifying round held in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, Japan took first place with 254.529 points after performing the previous day and advanced to the team all-around final.
