Today (September 18), Sheng Lihao, a 16-year-old boy from Zhangjiagang, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, concluded the competition in the three postures of the men's 50-meter rifle, the last event of the 14th National Games. His consecutive Olympic and National Games results in two months have also been fixed at one silver and one bronze. After the competition, the reporter interviewed Sheng Lihao and his coach Yao Ye in Xi'an to hear how they evaluated Sheng Lihao's experience in participating in the Olympic Games and the National Games for the first time.
"Playing the National Games is still very tense, but I still enjoy the game. If you score 10 out of 10, give yourself 5 points, you are not good enough. When the reporter asked how much Sheng Lihao would rate his first trip to the National Games, the somewhat shy and shy young man only scored 5 points for himself.
Looking back at the shooting competition of this National Games, Sheng Lihao won a bronze medal in the 10m air rifle mixed team final and did not win a medal. Yao Ye, the head coach of Sheng Lihao, said: "The National Games is the biggest event that Sheng Lihao participated in besides the Olympic Games. From the end of the Olympic Games immediately after participating in the National Games, his mentality is difficult to control, you don't look at a tall man, the mind is still a child. ”
16 years old is the age when many people have just entered high school, and Sheng Lihao is already on the same stage as the top shooters in the country and even the world. Compared with experienced athletes, Sheng Lihao's way of stabilizing his mentality on the field is still very immature: "Mainly by giving himself psychological hints, fueling himself, and saying to himself to refuel, you must be careful." "Isn't that exactly how we cheer ourselves up when we take the middle school entrance examination?"
In addition to psychological fluctuations, Sheng Lihao also has to face the impact of physical development on his technical movements. Yao Ye, the head coach, introduced that this year's Sheng Lihao's size jumped more severely, which had a very big impact on the technical action. Especially before the Tokyo Olympics, Sheng Lihao had a period of time when the state was relatively chaotic, but fortunately, through his own efforts and the help of the coaching team, we finally saw the Sheng Lihao who shocked everyone at the Tokyo Olympic Games.
At the Tokyo Olympics, Sheng Lihao won a silver medal in the men's 10m air rifle final and became the youngest athlete ever to win a medal in the Olympic shooting event. However, returning to the equally competitive domestic arena and experiencing a National Games that only scored 5 points to himself is not a bad thing for the young Sheng Lihao. Sheng Lihao said: "The main thing is to see the shortcomings of their own competitions, and then when training, they can work harder, bear hardships and stand hard work, and work harder in the future." ”
Next, Sheng Lihao, who has not rested for nearly a year, will usher in a rare vacation, but soon he will have to work hard for the qualification of next year's Hangzhou Asian Games. How to strengthen psychological regulation ability and how to better release potential are realistic problems in front of Sheng Lihao and coaches.
Yao Ye introduced that the study of cultural knowledge can not be relaxed, although the task is heavy and the road is long, but Sheng Lihao's journey and goals should be in a higher place. Yao Ye and Sheng Lihao's enlightenment coach agreed after discussion that Sheng Lihao could become a great player in the shooting project. "Not only is the special ability strong, but all aspects of being a person must be on the grade." Yao Ye, who witnessed sheng Lihao's growth, said that her expectations and requirements for him were higher than for her son.
Constantly participating in the competition, the 16-year-old Sheng Lihao's understanding of shooting is gradually deepening, and the goal is becoming more and more clear: "I think practicing shooting can exercise their mentality and temper their will, slowly participate in more competitions, participate in more competitions, regardless of experience, technology, mentality is a great improvement." The future wants to make myself a better person. ”
