After winning the championship, Han Xu made a showdown, the official announcement was made, the whereabouts were exposed, Zheng Wei regretted it, and Li Meng blessed it
Imagine a female basketball player who is exhausted on the court and doesn't have a trace of joy after winning the championship. This is Han Xu's story. The scene after her WCBA finals is a bit like the hero in the movie going to dusk. A hectic tournament schedule, including WNBA and international competitions, has pushed the superstar's stamina to its limits.
She is the undisputed leader on the court, but off the court she doesn't want to talk about basketball at all. On the night of the championship, Han Xu did not have a photo of holding the championship trophy high, and there was no excitement in front of the media. Instead, at the awards ceremony, an impulsive bald man "celebrates" with his fists that makes her emotionally explode. This little episode, although it was only a momentary emotional release, was enough to see how tired she was.
During the interview, Han Xu finally spoke out in a showdown and shared her views on sports and life. She thanked her teammates and the team for their support, and won her praise for the wonderful performance of the opponent Inner Mongolia women's basketball team. However, when faced with the question of how to celebrate the victory, Han Xu's answer was unexpected: she just wanted to go home.
Her official decision is not to participate in the activities of the national team for the time being, but to choose to go home for a physical examination and rehabilitation. It's a decision that thinks about your physical and mental health. It was also a bold decision, given that with less than 100 days to go until the Paris Olympics, the state of every member of the national team is crucial.
Han Xu's decision not only attracted the attention of the sports world, but also made the head coach of the women's basketball team, Zheng Wei, regret it. However, no one understands the importance of taking a break better than she does. At the same time, Han Xu's teammate Li Meng and others all sent their blessings, looking forward to her return. Everyone knows that only when the body and mind are fully rested and recovered, Han Xu can once again stand on the court in the best condition.
This is a thought-provoking topic. When a top athlete publicly expresses concern for his or her health, how should we reflect on the brutality of modern sport and the pressure on athletes? The health and mental state of the athlete should be a priority, not just victory and glory.
So, when we celebrate a victory, should we also think about the cost behind it? Let's discuss this together and see how we can better support our athletes and ensure that they stay healthy and happy while striving for excellence.
