Aska Cambridge, a short-distance sprinter on land, will miss the Japan Championships in June due to the treatment of a traffic accident involving him in April.
Last month, while driving a passenger car on the Metropolitan Expressway in Tokyo, Cambridge was involved in a rear-end collision with a truck and suffered a minor injury that sprained his cervical spine.
In June, aiming to return to the Japan Championships in Osaka, which also served as the representative selection for the World Championships, he had entered the men's 100 meters, but the Japan Association of Athletics Federations announced on the 31st that Cambridge will be absent. ..
The Japan Association of Athletics Federations says that it takes time to adjust the condition for the treatment of the hip joint of the right foot and the treatment of traffic accidents.
Cambridge participated in the men's 100m and men's 400m relays at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, of which he won the silver medal.
However, at the Tokyo tournament held last year, he missed out on the national team after a fierce battle.
Ryota Yamagata, who had surgery on his right knee last October, will be absent from the men's 100 meters in the Japan Championships in June.
