The 66th Japan Swimming Championships are on the horizon with short course action kicking off from Tokyo Aquatics Centre on October 19th.
The two-day affair includes multiple Olympians featuring the sole medalist, Tomoyuki Matsuhita, the then-18-year-old who claimed silver in the men’s 400m IM in Paris.
Daiya Seto, Yamato Fukasawa and Mizuki Hirai are also among the entrants, with the latter having recently committed to compete for the University of Tennessee within the NCAA.
Among the notable names that are missing, which most likely means they’ll also be absent from December’s Short Course World Championships, are Tomoru Honda and Rikako Ikee.
24-year-old Ikee recently confirmed she is officially in remission from the leukemia with which she was diagnosed in 2019.
