As we all know, China is the most powerful in table tennis, but in the field of gymnastics, the United States has seen many strong athletes over the years, including Douglas, Sean Johnson and Alexandra Lesman, who have won many Olympic gold medals. At the Rio Olympic Games, the U.S. women's gymnastics team won 5 Olympic gold medals in one fell swoop, which made other national teams envious, and the success of the U.S. women's gymnastics team was inseparable from a Chinese-American Qiao Liang, and the role of this person in the American sports world can be called "men's version of Lang Ping".
Qiao Liang graduated from Beijing Xicheng Sports School, first entered the Bayi gymnastics team, and then entered the Chinese national team training as desired, and after that achieved a series of fruitful results, and gradually grew into the backbone of China's men's gymnastics team. In this weak field, he has won the national games championship, the national championship horizontal bar champion, the World Cup free gymnastics championship and so on.
Unfortunately, during high-intensity training and competition, Qiao Liang's foot was injured and he could not continue to support him to continue his gymnastics career. But Qiao Liang did not want to give up his dream, in desperation, he came to the United States to establish his own "Joe's Gymnastics School", excellent for the United States women's gymnastics team to train a number of world champions, was awarded the honor of "Golden Key".
Among them, Sean Johnson is its prominent representative. Sean began gymnastics training at the age of three, at first, the teacher did not look favorably on her, and then under the training of Qiao Liang, the 14-year-old won four championships in the National Youth Gymnastics Championships, and from then on, Shaun's life began. He won the gold medal at the beijing Olympics later. Douglas, another of the top players in the American gymnastics world, won a number of gymnastics titles at the London Olympics, breaking through the history of gymnastics at that time and becoming the first black athlete to reach the highest honor.
As an outstanding women's gymnastics head coach, Qiao Liang can be said to have helped the Gymnastics career in the United States climb another ladder, and his coaching career is regarded as a myth in the gymnastics world by Americans and even the world. Later, Qiao Liang was also awarded the honorary title of "Golden Key" by the United States, and even the Iowa State Government named a road in the city "Joe's Olympic Avenue", which was to recognize Qiao Liang's outstanding dedication to the United States.
As we all know, China's women's gymnastics career has been tepid, and the most they won in a single session was 2 gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Although Qiao Liang has become a U.S. citizen, every time he leads the U.S. team to defeat a Chinese athlete, Qiao Liang's conscience is difficult to rejoice, perhaps in his world view, leading the Chinese women's gymnastics team to stand on the highest podium is the real success.
Qiao Liang is the coach of Chinese women's gymnastics continued, is Qiao Liang willing to return to the motherland to help the development of the Chinese women's gymnastics team? The answer, of course, is yes. In 18 years, Qiao Liang finally realized his dream and became the leader of the Chinese gymnastics women's team, and Qiao Liang, who had traveled in the gymnastics world for half a hundred years, had a lot of experience, and now he can return to China to lead the Chinese women's gymnastics team to the international stage, and he himself feels honored.
