On March 3, Beijing time, there is a figure skating world championships opened in March 2022, and an official participation list was updated on March 2, in which the Chinese figure skating team did not participate in a total of 4 events, which means that many outstanding Chinese figure skaters, including Sui Wenjing, Han Cong, Chen Hongyi, will not participate in the figure skating world championships, which means that the Chinese team has withdrawn from the figure skating world championships.
In addition, many of the rest of the world's top figure skaters with attention will not participate, among them, the Japanese famous Yusei Yushin, because of a foot injury, previously announced that he would not participate in the Figure Skating World Championships, looking back on the past, Yusei Yushin won two World Championships.
In terms of women's athletes, Russia's three sets of dolls Trusova, Sherbakova and Vallieva, these three people were banned by the International Skating Federation, and the International Olympic Committee recommended that all official agencies of the project ban Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating, and the Russian three dolls were implicated.
You know, the Russian three dolls are currently the world's strongest three women's figure skaters, is one of the few female players who can do four-week movements, of which the smallest and strongest Vallieva even holds the world record, the older Trusova and Serbakova, who just won the championship and runner-up at the Beijing Winter Olympics. For this reason, the ban of the three dolls made the figure skating world championships look even darker. In addition, Trusova, the oldest of the three dolls, did not participate in the last World Championships, and this time she missed it again, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to participate in the Figure Skating World Championships in the future!
A number of famous players miss the competition, naturally there are other players to gain benefits, male players, the top three single skaters in the previous Beijing Winter Olympics, will participate in this figure skating World Championships, gold medalist Chinese player Chen Wei, has the opportunity to win the World Championships, less Yusheng Jiexin, a fierce enemy, Chen Wei has the opportunity to open his own era. On the women's side, the absence of the Russian three dolls directly made Japan's Hanaori Sakamoto a favorite to win the championship, and the Japanese player won a bronze medal in women's single skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
It is worth mentioning that professional sports events have always needed to be linked to business, and in most cases, almost all world competitions need popular and influential athletes to participate in order to win greater attention. There is no doubt that the four people, Yu yu and the Russian three nest dolls, are currently the four players with the most attention in the world figure skating, but they cannot participate in this event. It can be expected that the stars of the Figure Skating World Championships are dim, the decline in attention has basically become a fact, the official loss of economic income will be great, there is no attention, no popularity, which means that the competition cannot get the attention of sponsors, indirectly affecting the development of figure skating in the world. The International Skating Federation is responsible for this!
