China's post-00 Olympic champion or retirement, once very beautiful and now controversial, I regret not being able to leave a regret in Paris
The 20s are the most golden age of their careers, and this is also the best time to compete for the peak of their careers. However, a post-00 Chinese Olympic champion faced the embarrassment and helplessness of retiring when he was only a few months away from the Paris Olympics. You must know that the gold medalist of the Tokyo Olympics was once as famous as the core and main player of the Chinese diving team, the popular star Quan Hongchan, and the scenery is infinite. But in just over two years, it has been full of controversy and regrets.
In the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese team performed very well and achieved good results. And the one who made a good start for the Chinese team was a very young post-00 player, Yang Qian, a student at Tsinghua University. At the Tokyo Olympics, Yang Qian, who was not very famous before and was still a college student, finally played very well in the competition, beating many world-class celebrities to win the gold medal in the women's 10-meter air rifle and becoming the first gold winner of the Chinese team. Since then, she and her teammates have won the mixed team Olympic gold medal, becoming a double Olympic gold medalist.
Yang Qian is a very young Olympic champion, she was born on July 10, 2000. She has had an outstanding shooting talent since she was a child, and at the age of 10, she entered the school shooting team of Ningbo Sports School with her performance, and at the age of 16, she entered the archery team of Tsinghua University. In 2019, Yang Qian, who was only 19 years old at the time, entered the national team. At the trials before the Tokyo Olympics, Yang Qian performed well, breaking the world record and qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics. In the end, Yang Qian successfully became a two-time gold king at the Tokyo Olympics.
The first gold medal winner of the Chinese team in the Tokyo Olympics, two gold kings, young players born in the 00s, and top scholars in China, these halos made Yang Qian quickly become the top of the domestic sports world. After returning from Tokyo, Yang Qian and another post-00 gold medalist, Quan Hongchan of the Chinese diving team, are almost as famous, and everywhere the two go, there are flowers and applause. However, unlike Quan Hongchan, who is still the top of the domestic sports world, Yang Qian has almost turned her previous fame into controversy in just over two years.
First of all, it is reflected in the negative news off the field. Since Yang Qian returned to China, it can be said that there has been constant controversy. Unlike Quan Hongchan's single-minded training, Yang Qian did not put all her mind on training. Yang Qian was once criticized by netizens for dancing in strange costumes, and was later questioned for participating in more commercial activities. Not only that, Yang Qian also fell into the questioning of plastic surgery, and was questioned about becoming an Internet celebrity with plastic surgery.
In addition to the constant negative news off the field, Yang Qian's biggest slot appeared in her results. In fact, if Yang Qian's grades were good enough, then there would definitely be a lot less negative news about her than it has now. But it's a pity that Yang Qian's results really didn't work out after the Tokyo Olympics. Even in the selection of the domestic World Championships, he once only won the 60th place in the country. It was the sharp decline in performance that Yang Qian missed the opportunity to compete in the World Championships, World Cup, and Asian Games.
Recently, the preliminary list of the Chinese shooting team to participate in the Paris Olympics was released. In this list, we can't find the name of 23-year-old Yang Qian, the first gold medalist of the Tokyo Olympics. This also means that Yang Qian missed the Paris Olympics and was not qualified to defend her title. In fact, the reason why Yang Qian failed to qualify for the Paris Olympics is that in addition to the fact that her own strength has indeed declined, there is also a very important reason that the competition within the team is too fierce. It can be said that because the level of the Chinese shooting team is indeed among the top in the world, the degree of competition in the team is no less than that of Chinese diving and table tennis. Now that he has missed the Paris Olympics and the competition in the team is so fierce, it may be really difficult for this post-00 Olympic champion to have a chance to turn over. In such a situation, Yang Qian has reached the verge of retirement, and perhaps it will be a better choice to focus on reading next. After all, it's already been highlighted.
