Sergio Sasaki's all-around win at last week's Junior Pan American Champiosnhips in Brazil marked him as one to watch in the future. Sasaki, only 17, was also at the 2009 World Championships in October, where he placed 19th overall.

We may be hearing more of him in the future, especially as he'll be only 26 when the 2016 Olympics come to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Here's a photo gallery of some other lesser-knowns who competed in London. Enjoy!
