Japanese mountain too high for Fu Jie


PETALING JAYA: The Asian Championships was supposed to be the platform for national artistic gymnast Tan Fu Jie to have a feel of the Olympics, even if he does not make it to the Games proper.

The 24-year-old, who won the pommel horse gold in last year’s SEA Games in Manila, was looking forward to the tournament at the Olympic Gymnastics Centre in Tokyo Bay from May 2-5 – but there’s only disappointment for him.
