Not long ago, FINA officials announced an important news that the 2022 Swimming World Championships will be held in Budapest, Hungary, on June 18. At that time, it will be composed of swimming and diving, and the Chinese delegation will send the strongest team to Europe to compete.
This World Championships is the first time that the national diving team known as the "Dream Team" has participated in such a major event after last year's Olympic Games, so all coaches and athletes, including team leader Zhou Jihong, are eager to try. As the race time draws nearer, all the team members who are about to go to the World Championships are sweating unimaginably every day, hoping to go to Budapest with the best possible condition. In the whole national team, the most concerned and popular nature is our lovely Quan Hongchan, which will also be her first time to represent the Chinese team in the World Championships, and she will be given high hopes.
Since her meteoric debut at the Olympics last year, Quan Hongchan has developed very rapidly in less than a year, and compared with the Olympic Games, her height has grown by 10 centimeters, and her weight has also increased a lot. Although she has grown into a big girl, for divers, especially female athletes, physical development means that their control of the body and the control of the splash when entering the water will have a great impact. In the recent test match in the team, Quan Hongchan lost the front hoof of the women's single 10 meters Taichung, which she was best at, and lost to her double partner Chen Yaoxi, losing the first place.
In fact, Quan Hongchan's loss to Chen Yaoxi this time is not only due to physical development problems, but also several factors, such as injuries encountered during training some time ago, and changes in mentality after winning the Olympic Games and National Games. After all, Quan Hongchan is still only 15 years old or a child, and it is difficult to stop the impact of the outside world on her, which worries Zhou Jihong and her head coach Chen Ruolin. However, I believe that with the ability of Quan Hongchan and the guidance of others, she will definitely have a bright future.
