The 2022 diving World Cup battle is about to kick off, and Chen Ruolin, the coach of the "Hardware King" before the expedition, posted a group photo of the team members on social media to encourage. Among them, there are not only members of the World Cup participating in the World Cup, but also a number of Olympic champions and world champions, in addition to the leader Zhou Jihong, who we are most familiar with. The first match of the 2022 Diving World Cup will kick off on October 20 in Berlin, Germany. The opening of the diving World Cup competitions also means the beginning of the selection of people in the Paris Olympic cycle.
The Chinese diving team formed today will be the basis for the selection of people for the Paris Olympics two years later, and the participants will be selected from this group of players. However, due to the impact of the epidemic, the cancellation of the National Championship and the postponement of the Asian Games, the chances of the team members to participate in the competition have been sharply reduced, and the results can only be compared through the team competition, and the actual state of the competition is unknown. Therefore, diving for the World Cup will become more important, and will also take the opportunity to test the reserve talent ability of the Chinese team in various events.
In the current team, the most popular and most concerned, is the women's 10-meter platform of the 2 geniuses Chen Tao Xi and Quan Hongchan, 2 people will also be the absolute king of the project, whether at home or abroad, it is difficult to have team members pose a threat to the 2 of them. At the previous diving world championships, 2 people worked together to win 2 gold medals in the project, whether it is a single jump or a double jump, the 10-meter jump platform is completely the world of the two, as for the suspense is who wins and who is the runner-up.
For the upcoming diving World Cup, the championship of the project is still between the two, and the two will once again usher in a head-on "duel". From the past three world series competitions, Quan Hongchan has a slight advantage of 2 wins and 1 loss. However, looking at all the participating events, including the team competition, Chen Taoxi has won the first place in the women's individual 10-meter platform for 4 consecutive times, showing an excellent competitive state, especially in the performance of each jump is very stable, while Quan Hongchan has exposed obvious drawbacks.
In the group photo of the World Cup, Chen Taoxi deservedly stood in the C position, and was close to the leader Zhou Jihong, next to the main competitive "opponent" Quan Hongchan. For the upcoming World Cup, Chen Taoxi's goal is to defeat Quan Hongchan for the fifth consecutive time to win his own World Cup championship. However, for the two, who wins the championship is possible, Chen Taoxi is known for his stable and powerful aura, and Quan Hongchan is absolutely capable of winning the championship as long as he overcomes the nightmare of 207C.
The two people's monopoly on the women's 10-meter platform also means that other domestic athletes have no chance to show up, such as Chen Taoxi's old partner, Zhang Jiaqi, who won the Olympic women's double 10-meter platform championship. Whether it was the previous World Championships or the upcoming World Cup, Zhang Jiaqi's name never appeared on the big list again. Although the previous World Championships were due to injuries, but now after such a long time, it still does not appear on the World Cup entry list, and the significance of this can be imagined.
In addition, when Zhang Jiaqi was interviewed before, he revealed to the outside world that he had shifted his focus to his studies. Although he is only 18 years old, he is afraid that his diving career will end and open a new chapter in his life. Whether it is its own lack of strength or the back wave of the Yangtze River pushing the front wave, it reflects how serious the "inner volume" of the Chinese diving team, which is known as the dream team. If you want to have a place in the Chinese diving team and represent the Chinese team in the World Series, its strength and ability are absolutely world-class. And the Olympic hardware king like Chen Ruolin, whether at home or abroad, is definitely a rare genius.
