One week after helping the Japan men's 4x100 meter relay team punch its ticket to the 2016 Rio Olympics with a third-place finish in Nassau May 3, sprinter Kenji Fujimitsu shouldered the load all by himself and raced to a little more success on Sunday.
Fujimitsu outran Kenya's Carvin Nkanata and China's Xie Zhenye to win the men's 200-meter race at the Golden Grand Prix Kawasaki meet on a sunny afternoon at Todoroki Stadium.
Fujimitsu crossed the finish line in 20.33 seconds. Nkanata was second with a time of 20.50 and Xie finished third in 20.61.
