Daiki Hashimoto (橋本 大輝, Hashimoto Daiki, born 7 August 2001) is a Japanese artistic gymnast. Widely regarded as the successor of Kohei Uchimura, he won two gold medals at the 2020 Summer Olympics, in all-around and horizontal bar, as well as a silver in team.[1] At the World Championships, he also achieved a gold, 2 silvers and a bronze.[2][3]

Hashimoto became a member of the Japan men's national gymnastics team in 2019, while he was still studying at Funabashi Municipal High School. He has represented Japan in every major competition since then.

Career

2019

Hashimoto competed at the World Championships in Stuttgart, Germany, where his team placed third all around.[4] On the pommel horse, he finished in 9th place, and on the horizontal bar, he finished in 4th place.

2021

Hashimoto's breakthrough arrived when he became the national all-around champion. His score of 88.532 was the highest of 2021 until being surpassed by Zhang Boheng's 88.565 result at the Chinese Olympic Trials. One month later, Hashimoto participated in NHK Trophy, and despite only achieving the second highest score of the night, he still won the title because the tournament also used the scores of All Japan AA Championships for the final results. In June, Hashimoto achieved another victory at the All Japan Event Championships. With such impressive performances, he was later selected in Japan men's national gymnastics team competing at the Olympics.

At the Olympics, Hashimoto competed in team event with Kazuma Kaya, Takeru Kitazono, Wataru Tanigawa & won the silver with only 0.103 points behind the ROC team..[5][6][1] He also won two gold medals in all-around and horizontal bar,[1] making him the most successful male gymnast in Tokyo with three medals — two golds and one silver. Being just 10 days before turning 20, Hashimoto also became Japan's second youngest and one of only two teenage male gymnasts in history to accomplish that feat after Kenzō Shirai, who won team gold six days younger in 2016. This would also include by default Hashimoto becoming the youngest Japanese gymnast to win Olympic gold on the all-around and horizontal bar events. In the men's individual floor exercise and pommel horse event finals, Hashimoto would place eleventh and ninth.

At the 2021 World Championships in Kitakyushu, Hashimoto was the top qualifier on the men's individual all-around and horizontal bar, but only earned two silver medals on those events. He also placed fourth in the parallel bars, and withdrew from floor and pommel horse, despite qualified for the finals.

2022

At the 2022 All-Japan all-around championships in late April, Hashimoto successfully defended his title, leading in both qualification & final. He also won the NHK Trophy, despite multiple falls in pommel horse & horizontal bar. In June, Hashimoto participated in All-Japan event championships, competing in floor, pommel horse, parallel bars & horizontal bar. He had previously qualified in rings but withdraw later. In floor, he won the bronze, while in pommel horse & horizontal bar finals, he made several falls & only achieved 7th & 6th place respectively. In parallel bars, he made mistakes at the qualification & did not advance to the final.

Later in late August, Hashimoto achieved the highest AA score of the year, getting 88.331 at the All-Japan Student Championships. He also won every gold & silver at every event.

Hashimoto was selected to represent Japan at the World Championships in Liverpool after winning the NHK Trophy. Despite a fall at the pommel horse in qualification, he still made it to AA, FX & HB finals. In men's team final, Japanese men made a few serious mistakes & ended up with the silver, losing the title to China. However, Hashimoto managed to win the all-around championship, reversing the 2021 result. He was also the runner-up in floor, with only 0.033 behind the gold medalist Giarnni Regini-Moran.
