Teenage swimming sensation Rikako Ikee said she would celebrate with barbecued beef and sushi as she was named the best athlete at the Asian Games on Sunday. Ikee, 18, who grabbed a record six gold medals in Jakarta, said she hoped she had put Japanese swimming on the map ahead of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

"I'm looking forward to eating some barbecued beef and sushi," said Ikee, the first woman to win the Most Valuable Player award. "To become the first Japanese to win six golds... it has put Japanese swimming on the map," she added.
