Japan failed to win any medals Friday at the Rio Paralympics, with the day's best result by Keiichi Kimura who finished fourth in the men's SM11 200-meter individual medley final for swimmers with visual impairment.
With just two more days of competition remaining, Japan is still looking for a gold medal to add to its collection so far of 19 medals — eight silvers and 11 bronze.
At Olympic Aquatics Stadium, Kimura touched the wall in 2 minutes, 28.76 seconds, behind Spanish winner Israel Oliver, Ukrainian runner-up Viktor Smyrnov and world-record holder Yang Bozun of China.
