On the evening of August 4, the Paris Olympics gymnastics men's rings individual final was held, and Chinese player Liu Yang won the championship with 15.300 points, creating the first rings championship in the mainland men's gymnastics event.
Zou Jingyuan also won the silver medal with 15.233 points, and the Greece won the bronze medal with 15.100 points.
In this Olympic Games, Chinese athletes have once again created brilliant results in gymnastics, and in the men's rings event, Chinese players have won two medals, including a gold medal.
The rings project defended its title.
At this Paris Olympics, the men's gymnastics event has been held for three days in the team competition, and in the team competition, the Chinese men's gymnastics team has performed very well and won the first place in the team competition.
In the men's rings event, Liu Yang has always been the team's anchor, he joined the national team as a junior player in 2007, his results have been climbing, and it is no surprise that he began to participate in international competitions.
At the 2018 World Championships, Liu Yang had already won the championship in the men's rings event, and in this Olympic Games, as the defending champion, Liu Yang is also under great pressure.
Before that, the mainland had never won a medal in the men's gymnastics rings event, and the mainland gymnastics team had absolute strength, so the absence of this medal also made people feel very depressed.
At the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Cao Zhuotong, as the main force of the men's team at that time, only won the bronze medal in the men's team event, and he failed to win a medal in the individual all-around event, winning the fourth place.
At the 2012 London Olympics, the form of the mainland men's team declined, and Cao Zhuotong only won the silver medal in the men's rings event, and did not achieve good results in other competitions.
At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Cao Zhuotong had already transitioned to the position of coach at this time, but the performance of other teammates was not as good as Cao Zhuotong's outstanding performance in individual events.
Cao Zhuotong's retirement has caused the strength of the men's team to plummet, so it is not easy to win a medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
But at the 2018 World Championships, Liu Yang won the championship of the rings event, and the strength of this event also began to become stronger.
At this year's Olympic Games, Liu Yang and his teammate Zou Jingyuan were both special players in the rings, and in the qualifying round, Liu Yang ranked second with a score of 15.200 points, and Zou Jingyuan ranked first with a score of 15.266 points, both of whom easily advanced to the final in the qualifying round.
In the team final, Liu Yang's performance was also admirable, he got a high score of 15.500, which is also his best result in the team final, which shows that Liu Yang is in very good shape now.
Zou Jingyuan's score was 15.366 points, 0.1 points higher than Liu Yang, but in the final, Liu Yang overtook Zou Jingyuan and won the men's rings event with a 0.133 point advantage.
Liu Yang won the award.
In the final, Liu Yang's difficulty coefficient reached 6.8 points, and in his completed movements, the lowest score given was 9.3 points, which came from his movement control, 13.8000.7 = 9.3 points.
Before that, Zou Jingyuan's difficulty coefficient was 6.7 points, and his lowest score was 9.033 points, 13.5000.67 = 9.033 points, and his control was insufficient.
And Liu Yang was able to win the championship this time, also because his movements are more difficult, and the biggest difference between him and Zou Jingyuan is that the difficulty of his movements is different, and Liu Yang's performance in the final is very good.
In the finals, Liu Yang's performance went to the next level, his movements were very steady, and every movement was very in place, and his performance was also very good, so he deserved to win the championship.
At the medal ceremony, because Liu Yang won the gold medal, he took the lead on the podium, and between Zou Jingyuan and Liu Yang, it was more of a tacit understanding and mutual assistance between brothers and sisters.
In this regard, Liu Yang is also very excited, he said: "The level of our local men's rings has become higher and higher, and the tacit understanding between teammates is also very good."
Liu Yang said: "This is the first time I have won the individual championship in the Olympic Games, and between my teammate Zou Jingyuan and I and some brothers and sisters, not only in terms of technology, but also in the process of the competition, it is very rare."
At the award ceremony, Liu Yang and Zou Jingyuan took pictures of each other, and the tacit understanding between them was also very good.
The level of gymnastics is constantly improving.
Gymnastics, as a veteran sport in the Olympic Games, has officially entered the competition since the 1896 Athens Olympic Games, and gymnastics, as a comprehensive competitive event, requires athletes to achieve good results in the project they are good at, which tests the comprehensive ability of athletes even more.
There are many gymnastics sports, and all kinds of events are very challenging for athletes to be professional in a certain aspect, and in these events, the training level of gymnasts is also very high.
In a competition, they first have to face the opponent, the environment, and even many uncertain factors, such as injuries before the game, and even food.
These uncertain factors will affect the state of the athletes, but the excellent athletes, who can quickly adjust to these factors, are very professional in training, and these trainings are to cope with various situations during the competition.
In the competition, every movement of them is trained repeatedly, and every movement is closely linked to each other, and their professionalism and concentration are very competitive in the competition.
Gymnasts should pay attention to their own movements at the same time during the competition, and also pay attention to the movements of their opponents, and their every move will be visible in the eyes of the referee, so their control of the movements is also very accurate.
In the men's gymnastics event, the mainland team performed very well, and in this Olympic Games, whether it is in the team competition or in the individual event, the performance of the mainland players is very good.
In the team competition, the Chinese team won the championship, and in the individual event, Liu Yang won the championship in the rings event, and Yan Gaoqiang won the third place in the free gymnastics event, which shows that the overall level of the mainland men's gymnastics team is very high.
epilogue
In gymnastics, it is not only the professionalism and concentration of the athletes, but also the physical strength of the athletes, because these movements are supported by their bodies.
Liu Yang's ability to win the championship again this time is not only a recognition of his personal strength, but also an honor for the Chinese men's gymnastics team in the international arena, and their training level and professional level are very not to be underestimated.
