Early life

[edit]

Kaya began gymnastics in 2004 at the age of eight. He was inspired by watching the Japanese artistic gymnastics team win gold in the team event at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece.[3][4]

While in middle school, Kaya moved to Narashino to train with one of the top gymnastics schools.[5]

Career

[edit]

Kaya won the all-around title at the 2014 National High School Championships, and he finished 27th at the 2014 All-Japan Championships.[5]

2015

[edit]

Kaya joined the Juntendo University team and made his national team debut in 2015.[1] At the Asian Championships in Hiroshima, Kaya won a gold medal with the Japanese team. He also placed third in the all-around, but due to the two-per-country rule, he did not receive the bronze medal as he placed behind Ryōhei Katō and Yusuke Tanaka. He then won the gold medal in the pommel horse final and the bronze medal in the parallel bars final.[6] He then competed at the World Championships and helped the Japanese team qualify for the final in first place and earn a team berth for the 2016 Olympic Games.[7] Then in the team final, he competed on the pommel horse and helped the team win the gold medal.[8] Individually, Kaya qualified for the all-around final where he finished in 10th place.[9] Then in the pommel horse final, he tied with Armenia's Harutyun Merdinyan for the bronze medal.[10]

2016–17

[edit]

Kaya won a silver medal on the still rings and a bronze medal on the parallel bars at the 2016 Baku World Cup.[11] He was an alternate for Japan's 2016 Olympic team.[12]

Kaya won the gold medal on the floor exercise at the Baku World Cup.[15] He was then selected to compete at the World Championships in Doha alongside Kenzō Shirai, Yusuke Tanaka, Wataru Tanigawa, and Kōhei Uchimura.[16] In the qualification round, Kaya fell off the pommel horse and failed to qualify for the event final.[17] The Japanese team then finished third in the team final and earned a team berth for the 2020 Olympic Games.[18] Kaya placed sixth in the all-around final and eighth in the floor exercise final.[19][20]

2019

[edit]

Kaya won a bronze medal in the all-around at the Birmingham World Cup behind Nikita Nagornyy and Sun Wei.[21] He was then selected to represent Japan at the 2019 Summer Universiade, winning the team gold medal alongside brothers Wataru and Kakeru Tanigawa.[22] Then in the all-around final, Kaya won the gold medal by nearly three points ahead of Russia's Ivan Stretovich.[23] In the event finals, he won silver on the floor exercise and bronze on the pommel horse.[24][25] Kaya then competed at the World Championships alongside the Tanigawa brothers, Daiki Hashimoto, and Yuya Kamoto, and they won the bronze medal behind Russia and China.[26] He then placed sixth in the all-around final for the second consecutive year.[27] Then in the parallel bars final, he won the bronze medal behind Joe Fraser and Ahmet Önder, which was Japan's only individual medal at these World Championships.[28]

2020

[edit]

Kaya was scheduled to compete at both the Stuttgart and Birmingham World Cups.[29][30] However, both of these events were postponed to 2021 and eventually canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[31][32] In November, Kaya competed at the Friendship and Solidarity Competition in Tokyo, competing as part of Team Friendship who lost to Team Solidarity.[33] Then in December, he won his first national all-around title at the All-Japan Championships.[34]

2021

[edit]

Kaya won the bronze medal in the all-around at the All-Japan Championships,[35] and he won the silver medal in the all-around at the NHK Trophy, qualifying for the Olympic team.[36]

At the postponed 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, Kaya was the team captain for Japan,[3] competing alongside Daiki Hashimoto, Takeru Kitazono and Wataru Tanigawa. They won the silver medal in the team final, finishing only 0.103 behind the gold medal-winning Russian Olympic Committee.[4] Individually, Kaya qualified for the pommel horse final and won the bronze medal behind Max Whitlock and Lee Chih-kai.[37]

At the 2021 World Championships held in Kitakyushu, Kaya won the silver on the pommel horse,[38] and he placed sixth on both the floor exercise and parallel bars.[39] After the World Championships, he competed at the All-Japan Team Championships, helping Central Sports win the bronze medal.[40]

Individually, he won a gold medal on the floor exercise and bronze medals in the all-around and on the parallel bars.[44] He was selected to compete at the World Championships alongside Kenta Chiba, Daiki Hashimoto, Kazuki Minami, and Kaito Sugimoto.[45] The Japanese team won the World title for the first time since 2015, with Kaya being the only member of the 2015 team still competing.[46] Kaya initially qualified for the all-around final behind teammate Chiba and ahead of Hashimoto, who would not be able to compete in the final due to the two-per-country rule.[47] However, the Japanese coaching team pulled Kaya out of the final in favor of Hashimoto.[48] Kaya did compete in the parallel bars final, where he finished fourth.[49] After the World Championships, he once again competed at the Swiss Cup Zürich with Chiaki Hatakeda, and they won the silver medal behind the American team.[50]
