When the Japanese team was announced for the 17th World Kendo Championships, it was no surprise to see former All Japan Women's Champion, and reigning individual World Champion, Mizuki Matsumoto's name on the list.

Chika Matsumoto is an established competitor in her own right - and at just 21 years old, she has a bright future ahead! There's no doubt that both sisters will be a formidable addition to the Japanese team.
