Sun Yang missed the Paris Olympics, how far can he go in swimming?## AbstractThe Chinese Swimming Association released the "2024 Paris Olympics Swimming Event Selection Measures", Sun Yang will not be able to participate in the domestic selection competition due to the lack of ban, which means that he will not be able to represent China in the Paris Olympics.
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the former Olympic champion in swimming.
Sun Yang said on social media that swimming is an inseparable part of his life, and he will always stick to the love.
So, how far can Sun Yang go in swimming, and will he choose to retire or continue to compete in other competitions? Let's find out.
## TextSun Yang is a banner of Chinese swimming, and he has achieved countless honors in the international arena and won glory for the country.
He is China's first men's swimming Olympic champion and China's first men's swimming world champion.
He has set world records in the men's 400m, 800m and 1500m freestyle, and is known as the "King of Freestyle".
His style is unique, his aura is strong, he is not afraid of strong opponents, and he dares to challenge.
He has many fans, his influence is huge, he is the pride of Chinese swimming, and he is also a legend of Chinese sports.
However, the legend's brilliance was overshadowed by a doping scandal.
In 2019, Sun Yang was sentenced to an eight-year ban by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) for allegedly destroying test samples during a doping test in 2018.
Sun Yang was not satisfied with this and appealed, arguing that the qualifications and procedures of the testers were problematic, and there was no evidence that he had used doping.
In 2020, the Swiss Federal Supreme Court accepted Sun's appeal, reversing the CAS decision and rehearing the case.
In 2021, after the CAS retrial, Sun Yang's ban was shortened to 4 years and 3 months, starting in December 2018 and ending in May 2022.
This means that Sun Yang will miss the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and will also miss the 2021 World Championships in Hangzhou.
Sun Yang is still unhappy with the verdict, he believes that he is innocent, he did not take any illegal drugs, and he was wronged.
He said he would continue to appeal to fight for his rights and fight for his reputation and honor.
He also said that he will not give up swimming, he still has dreams, he still has goals, he still has hope.
He said that he wants to participate in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, he wants to stand on the podium of the Olympic Games again, and he wants to dedicate himself again to the country and the people.
However, Sun Yang's dream was shattered by an announcement from the Chinese Swimming Association on December 22.
The Chinese Swimming Association released the "2024 Paris Olympic Games Swimming Event Selection Measures" on its official website, which stipulates that the domestic trials for the Paris Olympics will be held in mid-to-late April 2022, and Sun Yang's ban period will end in May 2022, which means that Sun Yang will not be able to participate in the domestic trials and will not be able to qualify for the Paris Olympics.
This is tantamount to announcing the fact that Sun Yang has completely missed the Paris Olympics.
There is another content in this method, which also indirectly determines the fate of Sun Yang's failure to participate in the Paris Olympics.
That is, according to the previous regulations of the Swimming Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sports of China, athletes who were banned for more than one year due to doping incidents in the previous Olympic cycle cannot represent the national team in the Olympic Games in the next Olympic cycle.
This means that even if Sun Yang can qualify for the Paris Olympics through other means after the ban ends, he is likely to be rejected by the national team because he has violated the principles of the national team.
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to Sun Yang.
He used to be the leader of Chinese swimming, he used to be the star of Chinese sports, he used to be the pride of the Chinese, he used to be the focus of the world.
But now, he has become a forgotten corner, he has become an outcast outcast, he has become a questioned sinner, he has become a laughing stock to be ridiculed.
His dreams, his goals, and his hopes were all shattered one by one, his reputation, his honor, and his influence were all stripped away one by one, and everything he had was taken away one by one.
Can Sun Yang continue to swim under such circumstances? Can he still maintain his love for swimming? Can he continue to pursue his dreams? At about 3 p.m. on December 23, Sun Yang updated his personal social media, which had not been updated for many days, and he wrote: "Swimming is an inseparable part of my life, and I will always insist on loving it.
This seems to be a response to his failure to make it to the Paris Olympics and a vision for his future.
Sun Yang's words express his dedication to swimming and his confidence in himself.
He didn't give up, he didn't compromise, he didn't give in, he still had his own way of swimming, he still had his own heart to swim, he still had his own soul of swimming.
Although Sun Yang has a high probability of missing the Paris Olympics, as far as he is concerned, he will not announce his retirement for the time being.
Even if you can't participate in the Paris Olympics, it is not impossible to participate in the 2025 National Games, or even the 2026 Asian Games.
Sun Yang's attitude deserves our respect and encouragement.
He is an athlete with a strong sense of self and self-worth, he is unwilling to be swayed by other people's eyes and evaluations, he is not willing to be bound by other people's decisions and regulations, he is not willing to be defeated by other people's accusations and doubts, and he is not willing to be affected by other people's ridicule and sarcasm.
He just wants to be himself, he just wants to swim his own swim, he just wants to chase his dreams.
Of course, Sun Yang's attitude will also cause some people to be incomprehensible and even dissatisfied.
They believe that Sun Yang is already an athlete tainted by doping, he is already an athlete punished by a ban, he is already an athlete abandoned by the national team, and he is already an athlete forgotten by the Olympics.
They believe that Sun Yang should recognize his own reality, should accept his fate, should give up his dreams, should choose to retire, should withdraw from the swimming stage, should give other athletes a chance, should leave a little dignity for himself, should leave a little face for Chinese swimming, and should leave a little glory for Chinese sports.
There is a huge gap between Sun Yang and these people, a gap that cannot be crossed, and a gap that cannot be communicated.
Between Sun Yang and these people, there is a fundamental difference, a difference that cannot be reconciled, and a difference that cannot be compromised.
Between Sun Yang and these people, there is an eternal dispute, a dispute that cannot be resolved, and a dispute that cannot be settled.
Between Sun Yang and these people, who is right, who is wrong, who is good, who is bad, who is righteous, who is evil, who is heroic, who is villain, who is victim, who is the perpetrator, who is supporter, who is opposed, who is understandable, who is not incomprehensible, who is sympathizer, who is not sympathetic, who is praiser, who is critic, who is encourager, who is attacker, who is helper, who is hinderer, who is friend, who is enemy, who is Sun Yang's, who is non-Sun Yang's, I am afraid that there is no simple answer to these questions, and there is no standard answerThere is no one just answer, no one absolute answer, and no one eternal answer.
How far can Sun Yang go on his swimming path? This is an unpredictable question, and it is also a question that cannot be answered.
Sun Yang's swimming path is known only to him, only he decides, only he masters, only he finishes it, and only he remembers it.
Sun Yang may miss the Paris Olympics in advance, and the new leader of the swimming team may officially change hands Sun Yang, the king of the Chinese swimming team, has won four gold medals in the London and Rio Olympic Games, creating the history of Chinese men's swimming.
His achievements have made countless Chinese proud and made him a superstar in the world swimming world.
However, just when he was in his prime, an anti-doping storm put his career in jeopardy.
In September 2018, Sun Yang underwent routine testing at home by the International Anti-Doping Agency (IDTM).
Questioning the qualifications and procedures of the testers, Sun refused to collect the blood samples and smashed the vials after an argument with them.
This incident triggered an investigation and trial by FINA and the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
After a series of legal proceedings, CAS finally announced on February 28, 2020 that Sun Yang had been banned for 4 years and 3 months for violating anti-doping rules, starting on February 28, 2020.
This verdict means that Sun Yang will not participate in the Tokyo Olympics, and it also makes his road to the Paris Olympics very slim.
Sun Yang appealed the verdict to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.
He insisted on his innocence, did not use any illegal drugs, and did not evade testing.
He argues that there are serious problems with the qualifications and procedures of the testers, and that he has the right to refuse to hand in blood samples.
He also pointed out that the arbitrators of the CAS were biased and discriminatory and did not give him a fair trial.
He hopes to get a reasonable result, restore his reputation and continue his swimming career.
However, Sun's appeal was not upheld by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.
On December 23, 2021, the Swiss Federal Supreme Court rejected Sun Yang's appeal and upheld the CAS decision.
This ruling locks Sun Yang's ban on May 28, 2024, which means that he will not be able to participate in the 2024 National Swimming Championships and Olympic Trials, and will not participate in the Paris Olympics.
This news made Sun Yang's supporters feel extremely regretful and disappointed, and also completely shattered Sun Yang's dream of the Paris Olympics.
Sun Yang's ban is undoubtedly a huge loss for the Chinese swimming team.
Sun Yang is the heart and soul of the Chinese swimming team, and his strength and influence are unmatched.
His performance in the international arena has won honor and respect for the Chinese swimming team, and also set an example and goal for the younger generations of the Chinese swimming team.
His departure has deprived the Chinese swimming team of a leading figure, and has also affected the strength and competitiveness of the Chinese swimming team.
Of course, the Chinese swimming team did not stand still because of Sun Yang's ban.
On the contrary, the Chinese swimming team has shown strong vitality and creativity in recent years, and has continuously cultivated and emerged a group of outstanding newcomers, laying a solid foundation for the future of the Chinese swimming team.
At the just-concluded 2023 World Aquatics Championships, the Chinese swimming team won a total of 16 medals, including 6 golds, 4 silvers and 6 bronzes, ranking third in the medal table, second only to the United States and Australia.
The rising stars of the Chinese swimming team, such as Zhang Yufei, Wang Jian Jiahe, Xu Jiayu, Shi Yuting, etc., have all made breakthroughs and progress in their respective events, showing the strength and potential of the Chinese swimming team.
In Sun Yang's absence, the new leader of the Chinese swimming team has begun to gradually surface.
Among them, the most eye-catching is Zhang Yufei.
Zhang Yufei, born in 1996, is a famous female butterfly swimmer of the Chinese swimming team.
At the 2016 Rio Olympics, she won the gold medal in the women's 200m butterfly and became a rising star of the Chinese swimming team.
At the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she won the gold medal in the women's 200m butterfly again, and also won the silver medal in the women's 100m butterfly, becoming the number one contributor to the Chinese swimming team.
At the 2023 World Aquatics Championships, she created amazing results, not only defending the women's 200-meter butterfly championship, but also breaking the world record in the women's 100-meter butterfly, becoming the leader of the Chinese swimming team.
Zhang Yufei's achievements make people think of Sun Yang.
She and Sun Yang have many similarities, both showed amazing talent and potential at a young age, both won gold medals at the Olympic Games, both set world records at the World Championships, and both won honor and respect for the Chinese swimming team in the international arena.
The relationship between her and Sun Yang is also very close, she once publicly said that Sun Yang is her idol and role model, she has learned a lot from Sun Yang, and has also been encouraged and supported by Sun Yang.
She also spoke out for Sun Yang on social media, saying that Sun Yang is innocent, and hopes that Sun Yang can return to the arena as soon as possible and fight for the Chinese swimming team with her.
Zhang Yufei may be Sun Yang's successor, or the new leader of the Chinese swimming team.
She has Sun Yang's strength and charm, as well as Sun Yang's belief and responsibility.
She has her own goals and dreams, as well as her own style and personality.
She is the hope and future of the Chinese swimming team, as well as the pride and glory of the Chinese swimming team.
She will continue to shine for the Chinese swimming team at the Paris Olympics and win more medals and honors for the Chinese swimming team.
She will face tough rivals from the United States, Australia, Canada and other countries at the Paris Olympics.
She will prove her strength and value at the Paris Olympics and prove the strength and value of the Chinese swimming team.
She will inherit the spirit and inheritance of Sun Yang and the Chinese swimming team at the Paris Olympics.
Sun Yang, although he missed the Paris Olympics, he did not give up his swimming dream.
He is still sticking to his training and comeback plans, he is still positive and optimistic, and he still believes in his innocence and justice.
He said he would respect the decision of the Swiss Federal Supreme Court, but that he would not accept such an outcome and that he would continue to seek other legal avenues to fight for his reputation and rights.
He also said that he will support the other members of the Chinese swimming team, especially Zhang Yufei, and he will cheer and bless them, and he will be with them and advance and retreat with them.
Sun Yang, although he could not participate in the Paris Olympics, he is still a member of the Chinese swimming team, the king of the Chinese swimming team, and the legend of the Chinese swimming team.
His achievements can be erased, his contributions can be forgotten, and his influence can be replaced.
His story will forever remain in the history of the Chinese Swimming Team, will always inspire the younger generations of the Chinese Swimming Team, and will always move the supporters of the Chinese Swimming Team.
His dream will always illuminate the future of the Chinese swimming team, will always guide the direction of the Chinese swimming team, and will always drive the progress of the Chinese swimming team.
Sun Yang may have missed the Paris Olympics in advance, but he did not quit the Chinese swimming team in advance, nor did he end his swimming career in advance.
He still has his own goals and dreams, still has his own beliefs and responsibilities, and still has his own charm and personality.
He is still the hope and future of the Chinese swimming team, and he is still the pride and glory of the Chinese swimming team.
At the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, he will once again shine for the Chinese swimming team, win more medals and honors for the Chinese swimming team, prove his strength and value for the Chinese swimming team again, and inherit the spirit and inheritance of Sun Yang for the Chinese swimming team and the spirit and inheritance of the Chinese swimming team.
