The men's vault at the 2021 All Japan Artistic Gymnastics Championships was held on 5 and 6 June 2021 at Takasaki Arena in Gunma, Japan.[1] 19 gymnasts from 15 clubs all over the country participated in the event.[2] Hidenobu Yonekura successfully defended his title, while Junya Sakumoto achieved the silver and Hinata Kabeya won the bronze.[3]
The competition also served as one of the national trials for the 2020 Summer Olympics. However, none of the medalist was shortlisted in the final six to contest in Tokyo.
Background[edit]
Due to the affection of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 event was postponed until December, making the two competitions only 6 months apart. Top 2 from last year, Hidenobu Yonekura and Keisuke Asato both qualified for the final, while the bronze medalist Carlos Yulo didn't participate.
Qualification[edit]
The maximum of 24 male gymnasts would be qualified to compete for the men's individual all-around event, following these criteria:[2]
① Winner of 2020 event and the gymnast selected to represent Japan at the World Cup in Doha; or top 2 of 2020 event.
② Top 22-24 gymnasts (not included in ①) all-around qualifying and tryout results to make the maximum of 24.
③ 2 spot for team contribution based on the results up to the NHK Trophy among the players who met the B-selection conditions (NHK Trophy 10th place or less, best team member, world ranking 1st place winner). This 2 gymnast who didn't passed the All-Japan event-specific qualifying were allowed to perform (but wouldn't advance to the final)
• Selected athletes for ③ were allowed perform, but the results wouldn't be in the eventual ranking.
