Career In 1955 Miyagi won the U.S. National Championships men's doubles title at the Longwood Cricket Club in Boston with compatriot Kosei Kamo after a five-set victory over Americans Gerald Moss and Bill Quillian.

Miyagi won the Japanese tennis championships in 1954, 1955, 1957, and 1960.

Between 1952 and 1963 he played 16 times for the Japanese Davis Cup team.
