In fact, Ye Shiwen is only 2 years older than Zhang Yufei. But in the impression of too many people, it seems that Zhang Yufei and Ye Shiwen are athletes of two eras. - This is mainly because Ye Shiwen became famous too early. Ye Shiwen was born on March 1, 1996, and Zhang Yufei was born on April 19, 1998. The two sisters are 2 years apart!However, as early as the 2012 London Olympics, Ye Shiwen appeared and won 2 gold medals in a row!(She is the youngest Olympic swimming double champion in the world!) At that time, Ye Shiwen was only 16 years old, similar to the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, when 14-year-old Quan Hongchan won the championship. Extraordinarily small.
And Zhang Yufei made his debut at the 2016 Rio Olympics with a mediocre record. The real result was the Tokyo 2021 Olympics, which won 2 gold medals in a row. At this time, 9 years have passed since Ye Shiwen's debut at the London Olympics. - It gives people the feeling of two eras. - But in fact, the two good sisters are the same age.
Yes, now Ye Shiwen's return makes people very happy! There are too many inspirational stories in the swimming world, Japan's Ikee Rikako, who can still compete after leukemia, won the bronze medal at the Hangzhou Asian Games, and Zhang Yufei cried excitedly. As for Ye Shiwen, not only did he rise again after missing the Olympics in the middle. And in this competition, she qualified for the Paris Olympics with illness.
According to Ye Shiwen's father, Ye Shiwen suffered from hyperthyroidism. It's not easy, Ye Shiwen's father almost cried!

Ye Shiwen's achievements in his early years were too dazzling, even incredible. You must know that at the London Olympics, as a female athlete, she surpassed the speed of the male competitor in the swimming sprint stage - this is a miracle! It also shows Ye Shiwen's super physical fitness.
However, such a star, the career after that was tortuous. In the 2016 Rio Olympics, Ye Shiwen's record was terrible. The 2021 Tokyo Olympics even missed it altogether. At the Olympic juncture: she made her first two races at the age of 16, then went low at 20 and missed at 25. Now, 28-year-old Ye Shiwen, fighting in the Olympics again, has returned to everyone's field of vision again.
Won the 200m breaststroke! 2:22.55, Ye Shiwen himself did not disclose his illness, but said lightly: After every game, in fact, there will be some reactions in the body. It's a torture for me psychologically, it's a torture for my willpower, and I need to keep the spirit to fight these bad reactions. I thought, now that I've made it this far, I'm going to have to get it done.
