TOKYO 2020: MEN’S FIRST EVER OLYMPIC STREET FINALIST CONTEST RECAP

So, in the end, there was perhaps something written about Yuto Horigome’s victory in Men’s Street skateboarding here in Tokyo. Already at only 22 years old and one of the greatest of all-time, those pundits who claimed the gold medal was Nyjah Huston’s to lose clearly had not followed the Japanese prodigy’s trajectory, including that World Championship victory in Rome just a month previously.

JAPAN’S YUTO HORIGOME WINS GOLD AS STREET SKATEBOARDING MAKES HISTORIC OLYMPIC DEBUT

Japan’s HORIGOME Yuto has won the inaugural men’s street skateboarding event at the Olympic Games in his hometown.

After a gruelling seven rounds, the Japanese skateboarder took the title in style with a score of 37.18 at the Ariake Urban Sports Park.

Brazil’s Kelvin Hoefler, who was more than one point behind, secured the silver medal, while Jagger Eaton of USA clinched the bronze to complete the first Olympic podium in men's street skateboarding history.

Congratulations to the first ever Skateboard Olympian Medalists!
