On the morning of July 29, the Tokyo Olympic Swimming Pool was frequently reported, following Zhang Yufei's gold medal in the women's 200m butterfly, the Chinese team composed of Yang Junxuan, Zhang Yufei, Li Bingjie and Tang Muhan won the gold medal in the women's 4×200m freestyle relay without being optimistic! Break world records at the same time!
In this match, the Chinese team led by 19-year-old Yang Junxuan, who finished fourth in the women's 200m freestyle the day before. Today, she kept her lead from the moment she entered the water and finished the first baton with a time of 1:54.37, which was also the fastest of all the contestants, laying a solid foundation for the Chinese team to win the gold medal.

Born in 2002, Yang Junxuan, a youngster in Zibo, Shandong Province, is a very powerful rookie in the middle distance event of the Chinese swimming team and is also recognized as a "talented woman". She is good at writing and painting, and once received special art training. At the end of the third grade, Yang Junxuan transferred from Zibo Lutai Primary School to a sports school to specialize in swimming, and had to interrupt her love of painting, but this hobby has always been with her.

Fortunately, Wang Aimin, the mentor who selected her to join the Chinese swimming team, was also very good at calligraphy, and in addition to training, Yang Junxuan practiced calligraphy under the guidance of Wang Aimin. Every Spring Festival, Yang Junxuan is sometimes responsible for writing the Spring Festival League for the Chinese swimming team. After joining the Chinese swimming team, Yang Junxuan also specially wrote letters to the children at his alma mater with hard pen calligraphy to encourage them to study well.
Wang Aimin believes that the amateur hobby of cultivating athletes in his spare time is to promote the main business of swimming, and the team members copy the writing posts at night, which will make them more calm and helpful to enhance their concentration, "Yang Junxuan copied Ouyang Inquiry's "Jiucheng Palace" for a long time, learning the interstitial structure of the font, which is also a good way to alleviate the pressure of athletes, long-term adherence to drawing and writing, which is helpful for personality and psychological tempering. ”
According to Wang Aimin, yang Junxuan will now paint a portrait of him every year, and Yang Junxuan has also been jokingly called "the best person in China's swimming circle"!
But in the main business of swimming, Yang Junxuan has not fallen behind, and she has gold medals in the Buenos Aires Youth Olympic Games, the Jakarta Asian Games, and the Hangzhou Short Pool World Championships. At the 2019 Gwangju World Championships, Yang Junxuan swam 1:55.43 in the women's 200m freestyle final, ranking fifth in the event and setting a world youth record for the event. Subsequently, Yang Junxuan, who was in the ascending period, continued to set a new personal best, not only creating a new Asian record, but also working with Xu Jiayu, Yan Zibei and Zhang Yufei to swim 3 minutes 38.41 seconds in the Qingdao National Championships, breaking the world record set by the United States team for the men's and women's 4×100 meters mixed relay, which is considered to have great potential to impact the Tokyo Olympic medals in this event!

After creating a new world record at that time, Yang Junxuan modestly pushed the credit to the brothers and sisters, she said: "Mainly rely on three brothers and sisters to help me win enough time, they take me 'fly', my own strength is not so strong." ”
Now, Together with her little sister, Yang Junxuan has broken the world record while winning the gold medal in the women's 4×200m freestyle relay at the Tokyo Olympics!
Interestingly, the name Yang Junxuan was given by her grandfather. Yang Junxuan once revealed that his grandfather's choice of the word "浚" at that time stemmed from the folklore of the so-called "five elements lack of water", and the original meaning of "jun" was also taken from the water.
When this name was born 19 years ago, I am afraid that no one would have thought that Yang Junxuan really won a very heavy Olympic swimming relay medal for the Chinese sports delegation in the water!
