On April 19, Beijing time, Zhu Ting, the captain of the Chinese women's volleyball team who was recuperating, posted a photo of herself watching the Barcelona Open on social media. Zhu Ting wrote on social media: "The first experience of professional tennis, when the fans are really happy. ”
Zhu Ting is currently in the recovery period after surgery, and this trip to the Barcelona Open is part of Zhu Ting's plan, mainly to feel the atmosphere and charm of European professional sports.
Zhu Ting not only watched the Barcelona Open match on the spot, but also met and talked with the No. 2 seed Rudd and took a group photo. Judging from the photo taken by Zhu Ting, her wrists that had not been operated on were still wrapped in thick protective gear.
Zhu Ting has previously revealed that tennis is one of her favorite sports, and her idol is the Spanish tennis star Nadal. Zhu Ting once said that Nadal's experience of repeatedly defeating injuries and returning to the peak has given him great encouragement, and his spirit of never giving up on the field is also worth learning from everyone.
However, it is a little regrettable that during the Barcelona Open, Zhu Ting did not have the opportunity to see her idol Nadal, because Nadal was also in the recovery period of injury. Nadal suffered a fracture in last month's Indian Wells race and is expected to return to the field in two weeks' time. I hope that Zhu Ting's trip to Europe will have a meeting with Nadal.
