He became the first-ever artistic gymnast to achieve that accomplishment. He won medals in the all-around, floor, rings, parallel bars, and horizontal bar events. His predecessor, Kohei Uchimura, will be competing for the final time at the Tokyo Olympics, but Kitazono seems ready to carry the torch for Japanese Men鈥檚 Gymnastics.

Indonesia
