Since the announcement of the selection method of "3 stations and 5 games to select 4 individual best results, and select the best", the figure skating Olympic Selection Competition has been deeply concerned by the majority of ice fans, and the scoring basis and judging standards of the selection competition have also aroused heated discussion.
Zhu Yi
A few days ago, wang Yumin, the chief referee of the selection competition, and the international referee Wang Yumin and the technical team answered these questions.
"The General Administration has promulgated selection measures, in accordance with the principle of fair competition, with the participation of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and the adjudication team is judged and scored in full accordance with the standards of the rules of the International Skating Federation."
Wang Yumin said that at the same time, in view of the characteristics of the scoring project, in order to further achieve fairness, in 3 stations and 5 games, the members of the referee team of each game have been adjusted to avoid the occurrence of a referee who cuts 5 games from beginning to end, thus forming an inherent impression of athletes, and creating a fair competitive environment for athletes from the perspective of referees.
In the women's single skating selection competition, a total of Zhu Yi, Chen Hongyi and Lin Shan 3 players participated in the selection, 3 people are similar in strength, in the technical difficulty of mastery is not much difference, from the usual training point of view, Lin Shan's training level is relatively high, in the first few selection matches have also been reflected.
In this regard, the technical group gave an evaluation: "The 3 female players all have 5 kinds of three-week jump and three-in-three difficulty reserves, Lin Shan's characteristics are high quality and amplitude, but the degree of completion in the competition fluctuates greatly." Chen Hongyi's jumping can almost always stand in the game, but there are always different problems in terms of starting blades and weeks. ”
"Zhu Yi's jumps are relatively stable, the quality of rotation and footwork completion is very high, and he has reached level four after several games."
Chen Hongyi
Lin Shan has been in the lead after the first few trial matches, but in the last game, she only scored 160 points far from the two competitors due to consecutive mistakes.
"The referees are selected and judged according to the performance of the athletes on the spot in strict accordance with the evaluation standards of the International Skating Federation, not according to their usual training level."
Wang Yumin said that according to the rules and standards of the International Skating Federation, athletes do not have major mistakes, and the overall score will be high, including gliding ability, action articulation, action performance, music arrangement, and musical understanding; correspondingly, major mistakes such as falling down will not only lose technical points, but also pull down the scores of the five major items.
Zhu Yi scored the highest qualifying singles score of 191.34 points in the competition, and Lin Shan's lowest score, all for this reason.
Wang Yumin said that for each action to add points, deduct points, the RULES of the International Skating Federation have clear evaluation standards, we see the athletes falling on the ice clean, may think that there is no mistake, but through the ultra-slow motion playback, whether the athletes have a blade error when taking off, whether there is a lack of weeks when falling on the ice and other details that affect the score are clear at a glance.
Chen Hongyi is precisely in these aspects of the impact of the score, "Chen Hongyi's disadvantage is that her jumping difficulty action has problems such as jumping with a blade error, insufficient number of ice weeks, etc., and there are more technical action drop groups, so the score value does not go up and can not get the extra points of completion quality." In addition, it is relatively not prominent in terms of rotation and musical understanding and expression, so it is always in the second position. Wang Yumin said.
The main responsibility of the technical group is to identify and grade all the technical movements completed on the spot of the athletes during the competition.
According to the technical group, Zhu Yi's difficulty configuration on the short program is the jump difficulty configuration of the rear inner point ice three-week jump connection after the outer point ice three-week jump (3F+3T), the rear outer three-week knot ring jump (3Lo) and axel two-week jump (2A), and the free skating including axel two-week jump connection after the outer point ice three-week jump (2A+3T), when the performance is stable, the quality of action completion is very high. Get more points for completion quality. There are also excellent performances in the auditions.
Due to the early injury, Zhu Yi played in the first selection match, but in the second and third matches held half a month later, Zhu Yi recovered from the injury and improved the difficulty training in training, and the last 4 trial matches played their own level and performed stably.
Especially in the whole program, the use of excellent gliding, high rotation quality, combined with their own performance skills, through the programming and cooperation with music, the technical action into it, fully show the personal style characteristics.
Lin Shan
In the end, Zhu Yi ranked first with 191.34 points in the second game, 177.96 points in the third game, 177.78 points in the fourth game, and 185.52 points in the fifth game, with a total score of 732.60, and won the only place in the women's single skating of figure skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Chen Hongyi ranked second with a difference of 182.46 points in the first game, 182.61 points in the second game, 172.60 points in the fourth game, and 186.97 points in the fifth game, with a total score of 7.96 points; Lin Shan ranked third with 189.11 points in the first game, 179.33 points in the second game, 186.88 points in the third game, and 161.36 points in the fifth game, with a total score of 15.92 points for Zhu Yishao.
In this regard, the technical group said: "According to the points rules of this selection competition, the difference of 8 points between each ranking is not a very large gap, and the scores of 3 girls in several matches are very tight. All the good, the field fight, the tension is wonderful, the gripping, this is the feeling of all of us. ”
Objectively speaking, the overall level of women's single skating in the mainland is still low, compared with the world's top level represented by Russian female players, there is still a long way to go in the mainland women's single skating. But at the same time, several female players have a lot of room for improvement in the future.
International figure skating experts also watched the performance of Chinese athletes in real time through online means, fully affirmed the progress and breakthroughs of athletes, and also pointed out their respective areas of improvement.
