Members of the Japanese national swim team returned to racing this weekend in Tokyo at the Tokyo Special Swimming Tournament. The biggest highlight of the day aside from\u00a0Rikako Ikee’s<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>return to competition after a battle with leukemia was\u00a0Keita Sunama’s <\/strong>200 backstroke as well as\u00a0Suzuka Hasegawa’s\u00a0<\/strong>100 butterfly with a 57.49 as the 20-year-old won the race over IM specialist\u00a0Yui Ohashi\u00a0<\/strong>(59.16).<\/p>\n

Hasegawa has been primarily a 200 butterflyer as she was the silver medalist at the 2017 World Juniors in the 200 and also reached the final at the 2017 Worlds at age 17. The 57.4 puts her in the top ten in the world for 2020 as she begins a new training cycle ahead of the Olympic Games in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

    Ohashi did not swim her best event, the 400 IM, as Rio Olympic finalist\u00a0Sakiko Shimizu\u00a0<\/strong>won in her absence with a 4:41.24, winning by over 12 seconds. Shimizu was slightly off her 4:38 earlier this year as she seeks to regain her place in the Olympic final after finishing eighth in Rio.\u00a0Ippei Miyamoto\u00a0<\/strong>took the men’s 400 IM final with a 4:16.18 as reigning Olympic champ\u00a0Kosuke Hagino\u00a0<\/strong>did not race the event and reigning World champ\u00a0Daiya Seto\u00a0<\/strong>was not in attendance.<\/p>\n

    Hagino, who sat out the majority of 2019 to rekindle his love for the sport, won the 200 freestyle with a 1:48.95, just out-touching\u00a0Yoshida Fuyu\u00a0<\/strong>(1:48.97) in his pursuit of a third Olympic Games as he is the reigning Olympic champ in the 400 IM.\u00a0Rio Shirai\u00a0<\/strong>won the women’s 200 freestyle with a 1:58.35 ahead of\u00a0Chihiro Igarashia\u00a0<\/strong>(1:58.57).<\/p>\n

    Reona Aoki\u00a0<\/strong>had an impressive swim in the 100 breaststroke with a 1:06.65, which was just a couple tenths off her swim from the World Championships where she finished in fourth place and just off the podium. Aoki, 25, put herself sixth in the world rankings for 2020.<\/p>\n

      In the men’s 200 backstroke,\u00a0Keita Sunama\u00a0<\/strong>won with a 1:56.05 as it is his new season best. Sunama beat Japanese record holder\u00a0Ryosuke Irie\u00a0<\/strong>in the process as the 30-year-old finished in second with a 1:56.21. Sunama was a 1:58 at the 2019 Worlds and finished 18th and out of the semi finals while Irie finished in sixth.\u00a0Yubara Rika\u00a0<\/strong>won the women’s 200 back with a 2:12.87.<\/p>\n

      Other winners on the night<\/a> came from\u00a0Yuki Matsumura\u00a0<\/strong>in the men’s 100 breaststroke (1:00.46),\u00a0Junya Koga\u00a0<\/strong>in the 50 backstroke (25.04),\u00a0Kawane Matsuhiro\u00a0<\/strong>in the 50 freestyle (22.31) and\u00a0Imai Tsuki\u00a0<\/strong>in the 50 freestyle (25.22).<\/p>\n

      Koga was initially suspended for four years in 2018<\/a>\u00a0after failing a doping test for ostarine and ligrandrol which he claimed came as a result of taking dietary supplements.<\/p>\n

      In August 2019, the Court of Arbitration for Sport cut that to two years after it was found that his supplements may have been contaminated.<\/p>\n

      It meant his ban ran out in May 2020 \u2013 too late to make the Japan team for Tokyo 2020 had it gone ahead as scheduled but now in place to try to qualify for the rescheduled Games next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
