Figure Skating Olympic Selection Tournament Ming Ming two consecutive games Jin Boyang and Lin Shan continued to attack the quota

From December 31 to January 1 next year, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics Figure Skating Olympic Trials will be held twice in a row at the Figure Skating Hall in Shougang Park. Jin Boyang and Lin Shan, who temporarily finished first in the men's and women's categories in the previous first selection competition, will continue to attack the number of participants in figure skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

According to the plan of the Winter Sports Management Center of the State General Administration of Sports, the figure skating selection competition will be divided into three times and 5 matches.

In the first selection match held on December 16, Jin Boyang and Lin Shan temporarily ranked first in the men's and women's groups respectively.

Among them, in the men's singles free skating competition, the two-time world championships runner-up Jin Boyang, despite the three difficult jumping actions in the opening scene, still ranked first with a short program of 97.75, a free skating of 142.94, and a total score of 240.69 points.

In the women's singles competition, Lin Shan won the first place with a total score of 189.11 points with a steady performance, and Chen Hongyi, who played at the World Championships at the beginning of the year and won a winter Olympic quota for China, temporarily ranked second with a total score of 182.46 points.

After the game, Yao Bin, coach of the National Figure Skating Training Team, commented on Jin Boyang's performance and believed that he failed to play the level of usual training.

However, Yao Bin also said, "Jin Boyang's set of programs to jump three, four or five times four-week jump, some are still even jumps, arranged together is very difficult, is also the highest level in the world, and a four-week jump to consume equivalent to two or three three weeks of jump energy, the whole set of program physical consumption is very large." ”

Jimbo Needs to find a balance between difficulty and stability.

Now, after nearly half a month of adjustment, Jin Boyang's status has risen, and what kind of report card he will hand over in the next two consecutive trial matches has attracted attention.

In this regard, Yao Bin said that the low success rate is a common problem for several chinese solo skaters at present, and how to find a balance between difficulty and stability within the scope of athletes' abilities is very critical.

"Jin Boyang's four-way jump plus continuous jumping, once a mistake, more than ten points are gone." Therefore, it is still necessary to practice more. Yao Bin said.

After the end of this selection, the last two figure skating Olympic trials will be held from January 20 to 22 next year, and the participation list of the Chinese figure skating team for the Beijing Winter Olympics will also be officially released after the last competition.

While the Chinese figure skating team is trying to prepare for the competition, the world's top figure skaters are also working hard to qualify for the Beijing Winter Olympics.

In the All Japan Figure Skating Championships and Beijing Winter Olympics Trials that ended last week, two-time Olympic champion Yu yusheng tried Axel around in the free skating event, and although there were double feet, he still won the championship with a high score of 322.36 points and successfully qualified for the Beijing Winter Olympics.

After the game, Yu Sheng revealed that his goal of participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics was very clear, that is, to win.

"Since it is the third time to participate in the Winter Olympics, there is no point in not winning the championship, and the ideal is to take the successful Axel around the jump to Beijing." Yusei said.

In addition, in the Russian National Championships held at the same time, the season's unbeaten 15-year-old talented girl Vallieva completed three four-week jumps in the free skating competition and won the championship with a score of 283.48 points, 34.83 points ahead of runner-up winner Trusova (248.65), creating the largest point difference between the champions and runners-up in the history of the Russian National Championships.

While the Russian Olympic Committee may not wait until next January's European Championships to announce the list of athletes who will eventually qualify for the Beijing Winter Olympics, Valieva has largely secured a seat.
