In competitive sports, food is the original sin. However, some time ago in Osaka, Japan, Chinese hurdler Wu Yanni finally proved this sentence with her strength. In the face of the strong attack of the Japanese national team, Wu Yanni crossed the finish line first in 12.86 seconds, winning the championship in the tie race, setting a new personal season best, and also the second best time in Asia this season, second only to Lin Yuwei's 12.83 seconds. After winning the championship, Wu Yanni's reputation finally ushered in a reversal, and many passers-by sent their blessings.
In fact, in the past six months, Wu Yanni has been controversial. There was a rush to the Asian Games before, and then there were many high-profile remarks and netizens on the line, and this season there were many times with makeup to participate. This polarizes Wu Yanni's reputation, those who like her like her frankness and straightforwardness, and those who don't like her think she is too high-profile. In the final analysis, the source of the controversy is that Wu Yanni's previous results do not match the traffic, which makes many netizens label her as an Internet celebrity. And the only way for Wu Yanni to reverse her reputation is results, and there is no second way.
This season, Wu Yanni first participated in the World Indoor Championships, she broke the PB in the 60m hurdles and finished fourth in the group. Later, when she returned to the domestic arena, Wu Yanni continued to improve her performance, brushing PB 4 times a month, showing a good state. Later, in the two Diamond Leagues in Xiamen and Suzhou, Wu Yanni was thrown away by a group of world-class players, and she finished at the bottom of two consecutive stops, and the score did not break 13 seconds. During that time, Wu Yanni had been wearing heavy makeup to participate in the competition, and she also caused controversy because of her revealing clothes. But Wu Yanni was not disturbed and still insisted on being herself.
After winning the championship in Osaka this time, Wu Yanni responded to the controversy again in an interview. When talking about plastic surgery and makeup, Wu Yanni denied that she had her nose and chin trimmed, and she generously admitted that she cut her double eyelids. Wu Yanni said: "The more than ten seconds I stood on the court, let all the audience see my Wu Yanni's most beautiful appearance, I feel satisfied." If the results come out, won't it be even more scored? This time, public opinion was a lot more tolerant of Wu Yanni, after all, Wu Yanni did work hard, and she cashed in her efforts.
But if you want to completely reverse the reputation, 12.86 seconds is far from enough, and the Paris Olympics soon after is the real big test for Wu Yanni. Although Wu Yanni has shouted the goal of being in the top eight of the Olympics, it is actually difficult to achieve. The more realistic goal is to reach the semi-finals or break a personal record. When Wu Yanni really uses her achievements to gain recognition and uses her strength to fight back against doubts, her high-profile will eventually become her true temperament.
