Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox table tennis player

Шаблон:Nihongo was an international table tennis player from Japan.

Table tennis career

From 1952 to 1953 he won two medals in the singles and team events in the World Table Tennis Championships and four medals in the Asian Table Tennis Championships. Hiroji was the first person to use a sponge on his racket, a common feature of all modern table tennis rackets. Although, at the time it may have seemed as though this technological advancement gave him an unfair advantage, it has truly brought table tennis into the modern age and as the Olympic sport it would become.[1]

He won bronze medal in the team event at the 1952 World Table Tennis Championships[2][3] and a gold medal in the men's singles at the 1952 World Table Tennis Championships.[4]
