Many years have passed since the Sun Yang incident, but in my heart, Sun Yang's achievements, the honor he won for the country, and the pride he once brought to the Chinese people are unforgettable. It can be said that if it were not for the anti-test incident, Sun Yang would have been one of the greatest athletes in China today.
Swimming is a big sport, a mainstream event, not to mention how many world championships Sun Yang has won, only the Olympic champion he has won the 200 meters, 400 meters, 800 meters and 1500 meters gold medals, some are still two consecutive Olympic Games won the title, on the influence of swimming events, such achievements are enough to amaze the world!
Looking at history, Li Na, Liu Xiang and Sun Yang are undoubtedly the greatest athletes of this era and will surely go down in the history of sports.
But unfortunately, a routine flight inspection completely ruined Sun Yang's career. Everyone hates iron is not steel, and they can't believe it, what happened to Sun Yang, you must know that a momentary impulse will bring you the end of your career, and also bring permanent regrets to those countrymen, families, and coaches who care and love you.
Frankly speaking, I haven't seen Sun Yang's scene once, but seeing him win glory for the country again and again, raising the national flag and playing the national anthem from the TV footage, that scene really makes us excited and proud. Especially after winning the championship, his eyes were full of tears and choked up, which made me deeply feel the hardship, bitterness and burden behind him.
You must know that swimming has always been the stage of Europe and Americans, and now a yellow man, a Chinese, stood on the highest podium for the first time, the national anthem sounded, and his firm gaze seemed to announce to the world that the swimming stage ruled by Europeans and Americans was gone.
But I never expected that such a less professional urine test incident left a deep regret for him, to those who love him, and to me, who has been practicing sports for decades, which is still unforgettable... One word, sigh!
Not long ago, the good news came that FINA awarded Sun Yang a 1500m world record certificate, proving that the 1500m world record set by Sun Yang in 2012 has not been broken for ten years, and the result still belongs to Sun Yang.
After the Sun Yang incident that year, there were all kinds of voices, some belittled and scolded, some said that he was blindly arrogant, some said that he won the championship and ridiculed the Australians who won the runner-up, and so on. I want to say that no one is perfect, young people have a temperament, it is inevitable to commit discipline, in the years that I have been engaged in sports, I have seen many outstanding athletes who violate discipline, but I can't generalize, and if there is a mistake, it will be completely denied. Sun Yang's impulsivity has already cost him.
We can criticize him and feel sorry for him, but the achievements and honors he has created for Chinese swimming must not be forgotten, let alone erased.
