He Kexin (Chinese: 何可欣; pinyin: Hé Kěxīn) is a Chinese gymnast. At the 2008 Olympics in Beijing she won gold medals on the uneven bars (her specialty) and as a member of the Chinese Artistic Gymnastics team. In 2008, she won two World Cup titles on the uneven bars. On the bars she is one of the few gymnasts in the world to score over 17.00 under the current Code of Points. With an A-score of 7.7, she has one of the highest difficulty scores in the world in the event, along with Yang Yilin, Nastia Liukin and Beth Tweddle. As with several of her teammates, her age came under scrutiny in the international press; two investigations have formally cleared her and her teammates of any wrongdoing.
