At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics gymnastics finals, she was not favored by everyone, and she was definitely a legend you didn't expect.
At the age of 16, she amazed all foreign referees and spectators in only 30 seconds, and was known as the strongest substitute in the history of the Chinese Olympic Games, becoming the first Olympic champion in the history of gymnastics to win the championship with a full score.
The final result was a big surprise, she was the almost forgotten Lu Li, from Changsha, Hunan.
Before the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, the Chinese gymnastics team was unfavorable. Except for the men's team runner-up, all other events were unexpectedly lost.
And Lu Li's participation this time is just to be a substitute player. Because before the competition, in the continental gymnastics uneven bars event, Shi Liying, the main player whose strength is basically unrivaled, was accidentally injured in the pre-competition warm-up and could not participate.
At a critical juncture, the coaching staff chose Lu Li to come off the bench.
It is worth mentioning that in her career, Shi Liying was unfortunately injured unexpectedly before every competition, which became the most regrettable thing in her life. Especially at the Barcelona Olympics this time, if she hadn't been injured unexpectedly, the Barcelona Olympics should have won the championship.
On the other hand, Lu Li, she had only won the championship in the national championships before this, and she did not have too outstanding results at this time. So the media and judges at that time didn't even have any hope for such a woman who didn't have any experience in competitions, and even the coaching staff.
Everyone is more optimistic about Yang Bo, a girl from Ningbo.
Yang Bo won the title of international athlete in 1990, and also served as the captain of the Chinese women's gymnastics team in 1990, and has now joined the Chinese entertainment industry as a singer.
It was under such circumstances that Lu Li stepped onto the field firmly and persistently. It took only 30 seconds for the miraculous performance to shock the world, making all six foreign judges on the scene score full marks, and they all said that this was definitely an epic action.
In the competition, Lu Li, who is 1.36 meters tall and weighs 30 kilograms, pulled the atmosphere to an unprecedented climax with a whole set of flowing movements. In the end, it was like an iron nail, firmly rooted on the mat and did not move, stunning the audience. In the end, 6 foreign referees gave full marks and won the gold medal in the uneven bars for the Chinese delegation, breaking the unfavorable situation of the Chinese team.
Overnight, she was well-known to many people as a fledgling, and remembered Lu Li, the ceiling of the gymnastics world. When everyone thinks that Lu Li, who flies up and down like a little swallow on the uneven bars, will move towards a new future after winning the gold medal at the Barcelona Olympics.
Unexpectedly, God was blind, and she was forced to retire at the age of 18, and the reason is really distressing. Due to physical discomfort, the examination found that he had hereditary hepatitis.
In this way, the Olympic champion who was a god in World War I was forced to retire in 1994, ending his short gymnastics career and slowly withdrawing from everyone's field of vision.
Even though many years have passed, even if it weren't for the accidental injury of the main player at that time, maybe Lu Li's strength would have been buried, but we must always remember that at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, this cute little girl who flew freely on the uneven bars showed her legendary talent to the world.
We must always remember that she was a legendary gymnastics girl who made six foreign judges score 10 points at the same time. Maybe most young people have not heard of the name Lu Li now, so I hope that after reading the article, you will also remember this "Lu Li" who once resounded all over the world.
