Koji Yamamuro (born January 17, 1989 in Koga, Ibaraki) is a Japanese gymnast.[2] He won the bronze medal in men's All-Around in 2011 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.[3]

He competed for the national team at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the Men's artistic team all-around. In the team final, he injured his ankle on the Vault event, and had to be helped off.[3] He had qualified for the individual all-around final, but due to the injury was unable to compete. This gave a chance for his teammate Kazuhito Tanaka to compete[4] - he had ranked behind Yamamuro and Kōhei Uchimura and had not qualified due to the 2-per-country rule.

Participated in the 2012 American Cup.[5]
