Short track speed skating world champion Han Tianyu: won the first gold medal of the men's 1500 meters for China, known as "Han Yidao" by fans, although he temporarily left the track after being injured, he still did not give up the short track speed skating he loved.
Han Tianyu was born in the northeast, which is a land with a strong atmosphere of ice and snow sports, and under the influence of the environment, he fell in love with skating.
After that, with his extremely high skating talent and good skating skills, he won the men's 1500 meters and men's all-around championships at the 2011 National Short Track Speed Skating Championships in just five years, and also broke the record.
Five years later, Han Tianyu won the men's 1500m title at the 2016 World Short Track Speed Skating Championships, China's first World Championship gold medal in the event, ending a 41-year unlicensed history, in addition to winning the World Championships individual all-around and 5000m relay titles.
His excellent skating skills and handsome appearance have made him gain a lot of loyal ice fans, and he has also won the title of "Han Yi Dao".
Later, at the 2018 Pyeongchang Event, Han Tianyu and his teammates worked together to win the runner-up in the men's 5000m relay final.
No matter how spirited Han Tianyu was at that time, fate still gave him a heavy blow.
After that, misfortune fell on Han Tianyu, and the accumulated injuries forced him to leave the game temporarily. Han Tianyu was once depressed, "I may be short-lived."
In a later interview, he revealed that he was still reluctant to give up short track speed skating and was slowly strengthening his training in order to regain his footing. Hopefully he will recover soon and be on the beloved track again!
