Fan Suyuan's official exposure to ice and snow sports came in 2009, when she was 13 years old. "We think that our daughter has grown up with long arms and legs since she was a child, and it is estimated that skating will definitely work." According to Fan Suyuan's father, Fan Zhongbo, the daughter originally learned to skate at speed.

She really started curling 5 years later. At that time, the curling coach of the Jilin team selected Fan Suyuan to transfer the event, and she really began to associate with curling. In the 2019-2020 season, Fan Suyuan began to focus on the mixed doubles event.

According to reports, Fan Suyuan's parents are actually outsiders in the sports circle, but since their daughter became a professional athlete, the two have always respected their daughter's own choices. Moreover, in order not to disturb her training, parents do not dare to easily call her even if they miss their daughters. Therefore, there has always been a habit in Fan Suyuan's family: although there are not many videos of his daughter's competition, Fan's father also has to download them all and watch them repeatedly.

Not only that, according to Fan Suyuan's mother Su Yuxin, she did not tell her family when she was selected for the Olympic list this time, "We all watched the game on TV and heard the commentary to know the news." Su Yuxin smiled and said that at that time, he was really stealing pleasure in his heart.

Fan Suyuan's lover and the great Tang Dynasty poet Chen Ziang have the same name. As a curling coach, he and Fan Suyuan also became acquainted because of curling. Nowadays, everyone is looking forward to the wedding of the two of them. In Chen Ziang's eyes, his wife has an opinion but is very good at thinking about others, always thinking from the perspective of others, and the coaches and teammates like her.
