Figure skating is a traditional ice sport at the Winter Olympics. Since 1908, figure skating has been under the skating category of the Winter Olympic Games, and with the expansion of the popularity and scale of the Winter Olympic Games, figure skating has been divided into four current Olympic competitions: men's singles, women's singles, pair skating and ice dance.
Figure skating is highly artistic and ornamental. In the scoring rules of figure skating events, the contestants' competition score is composed of two parts: the technical points of the action and the content of the program. The content of the program is the impression score given by the athletes through the interpretation and understanding of the competition music through technical dance movements on the ice.
As an audience, you don't need any skating foundation, as long as you can feel the silky combination of dance and music of the contestants, you will recognize the players on the field. That's the beauty of figure skating.
In addition to having super high ice skills, figure skaters generally have beautiful looks and hot figures, especially figure skaters. Below I introduce a few well-known figure skating goddesses. (Although the mainland's current women's figure skating results are slightly unsatisfactory, I still want to put our people in front and hope that the friends of the headlines will understand.) )
No.1 Chen Lu
Chen Lu is the first female figure skating athlete in mainland China and is known as "the first person in China's women's figure skating"!
Born in 1976 in Changchun, Jilin Province, Chen Lulu has a unique ice and snow sports environment in Changchun, a cold northeastern city. While other girls were still playing in their mother's arms, 4-year-old Xiao Chen Lu was already waddling and learning to skate.

Chen Lu always uses all the time for skating training and has never slackened off. In 1986, the Chinese figure skating team was established, and when the athletes were later selected, 11-year-old Chen Lu became the first official team member with excellent skills. After entering the national team, Chen Lu continued to train hard. Chen Lu, who was only 14 years old in the 1990 China Figure Skating National Competition, easily won the championship.
In the 1995 World Figure Skating Championships in Birmingham, England, Chen Lu ushered in the highlight of her life and won the first world championship in her life.
He won a silver medal at the World Figure Skating Championships in Edmonton, Canada, in 1996.
At the 18th Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, 1998, she won the bronze medal in women's figure skating and the first medal in the single figure skating event at the Chinese Winter Olympics!
In competitions, Chen Lu often uses the violin concerto "Liang Zhu" as the music of the competition. She recalled: "What I played was not Zhu Yingtai, but my own growth story. At that time, my spirit was highly focused, as if I had entered another realm. As a result, she also became the "butterfly on ice" in the audience's mouth.
The first Chinese women's figure skater - Chen Lu
After the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics, Chen Lu chose to retire due to injury. After retiring from the army, Chen Lu traveled around the world to watch figure skating performances in other countries. After returning, he opened professional ice rinks in Beijing, Shenzhen and other places to train children's interest in skating and continue to contribute to the skating cause in the mainland.
Chen Lu (Beijing) International Ice Center attracts more than 200 students every week. "I would rather train them to be good athletes than to train them to be well-rounded people." Chen Lu uses this concept to enlighten beginners, not only to teach children basic skating skills, but also to let children feel the charm of sports through skating, and cultivate perseverance and tenacious will to fight in sports.
It's 2005. Chen Lu, 29, met the other half of her life. This person is Dennis Pantsev, the champion of Russian double skiing, and the two have a very strong love when they met. Later, the two chose to get married and started their own family.
Soon after their marriage, the two had children of their own. There is no doubt that as the children of world-class champions, they have inherited the athletic talents of their parents. The son excelled on the tennis court and often represented the school in competitions. The daughter is especially like Chen Lu, inheriting her strong figure skating genes, and now also conducts skating training and some competitions.

As a Chinese, Chen Lu's heart is first and foremost a country no matter what position she is in. In the face of the very well-paid figure skating school in the United States, Chen Lu did not choose to stay in the United States to teach. When the motherland needed her to take on the responsibility of cultivating new figure skaters, she immediately got ready to go back to the "fighting state" of that year and served as the coach of the third team of Chinese national figure skating. In 2018, Chen Lu officially served as the head coach of the national figure skating team. From entering the national team training at the age of only 14, to later opening a skating training institution, and now serving as a coach, Chen Lu has dedicated her life's youth and enthusiasm to the skating cause of the motherland!

No2 Li Zijun
Li Zijun , born on December 14, 1996 in Changchun, Jilin Province , is one of the best single female figure skaters in China after Chen Lu.
When she was five years old, when she saw the daughter of her mother's colleague skating, she was very interested and stubbornly began to learn to skate.

"The face is like jade, and the posture is like pine." "Flying like a surprise, wan like a dragon" is the praise of audiences around the world for Li Zijun! At the age of 16, he won the domestic Grand Slam, although he chose to retire after experiencing ups and downs, his good face and elegant dance posture are still engraved in the hearts of a generation, becoming a Chinese figure skating goddess!
No3 Chen Hongyi
Chen Hongyi was born in Beijing on September 19, 2002. She has loved skating since she was a child, in 2008, 6-year-old Chen Hongyi began to practice skating at the Century Star Skating Club for a fee, and she was also quite hard at school in the morning, went to the club to skate in the afternoon, and sometimes continued to practice at night.
Figure skating goddess Chen Hongyi
In September 2016, at the National Figure Skating Grand Prix, 14-year-old Chen Hongyi won the second place in the adult women's single skating. In April 2018, in the National Figure Skating Championships, Chen Hongyi won the women's single skating championship.
In July 2018, he was selected for the Chinese national figure skating team. In December, she finished third in women's single skating at the National Figure Skating Championships. In February 2019, in the National Figure Skating Championships, Chen Hongyi won the runner-up in women's single skating; In September, at the National Figure Skating Championships, she won the second place in the adult category women's single skating. In November 2020, she won her first Grand Prix sub-stage in the women's singles competition at the World Grand Prix in China. The match also set a new personal high on the three points of the short program, free skating and overall score.
Chen Hongyi made a jumping motion
In the women's single skating selection competition, a total of 3 players zhu yi, Chen Hongyi and Lin Shan participated in the selection, and the 3 people were similar in strength and did not differ much in technical difficulty.
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 scored the highest qualifying singles score of 191.34 points in the tournament. The mainland participated in the Beijing Winter Olympics women's single skating quota of only one, and finally Zhu Yi qualified to participate in the Winter Olympics, Chen Hongyi and Lin Shan regrettably lost.
Zhu Yi was left with tears of remorse after his mistake in the game
However, Zhu Yi made a major mistake in the game and was eliminated. For this reason, Zhu Yi was questioned and criticized by many irrational netizens about Zhu Yi. We should look at this matter with a tolerant attitude, after all, Zhu Yi, who participated in a large-scale international event for the first time, was a person who participated in the Figure Skating Competition of the Winter Olympics, and the pressure was also very large, and the mistakes were forgivable. I hope she cheers up, trains well, prepares for the next fight, and good luck will come to those who are prepared.
Chen Hongyi became another Chinese figure skating goddess after Li Zijun because of her good looks and fiery figure. The audience affectionately called Chen Hongyi "Ice Elf"!
There is still a long way to go in the future, and I wish Chen Hongyi's figure skating level can be further improved and achieve the desired results in international competitions!
