In the men's steeplechase final of the Beijing Winter Olympics snowboarding that ended on February 7, Beijing time, 17-year-old Chinese rising star Su Yiming performed well, relying on the second round of 88.70 points to win the runner-up, creating history to become the first Chinese men's snowboard medalist. Two Canadian players, Paloth and McMorris, won the first and third places respectively.
After the game, many netizens questioned that Su Yiming's score was deliberately depressed by the Canadian referee, after all, it was the Canadian player who won the gold medal. The Canadian referee is suspected of helping his own players win gold medals and suppress Su Yiming.
Even many foreign netizens have complained about him. Foreign netizens left a message: "Why is Su Yiming not the first?" Su Yiming is the best in our hearts. Thank you for bringing us a wonderful show! ”
However, for regretting missing the gold medal, Su Yiming showed quite a generous performance. According to the Beijing Evening News reporter, in the post-match interview session, Su Yiming said that he did not care about the score, and he was very happy to compete with two of the world's top athletes. In particular, the bronze medalist McMorris is Su Yiming's idol. I am proud to beat my idol to win the silver medal.
As for why the crucial third round of the final did not get a high score, Su Yiming also responded: "In the second jumping platform, I did not complete the actions I wanted to complete, and I did not complete it very smoothly. A foot position was changed between the second and third jumps, and the planned action was not completed. So in the end, I took the third jump as a training and prepared for the big jump competition in the back. ”
Next, Su Yiming will also participate in the competition for the men's big jump on snowboarding. According to the schedule, the qualifying round and final of the men's snowboard jump will be held on February 14 and 15 respectively, and Su Yiming, who already has a silver medal in hand, will strive to be on the highest podium to make up for the regrets left by the slope obstacle course.
