As we all know, the rules of a sport are standards for the fair competition of the vast majority of participating athletes, but if an athlete is too strong and causes too much in the original rules, the official will be forced to change the rules to make the game fairer. So, what precedents have emerged in the sports world for senior management to change the rules because the players are too strong?
Fu Mingxia
As a legend in China's diving industry, Fu Mingxia, who was less than 13 years old in 1991, won the 10-meter platform at the World Championships, becoming the youngest world champion in the history of diving. Just a year later, at the Barcelona Olympics, 14-year-old Fu Mingxia won another gold medal in the 10-meter platform, which made the world marvel. However, Fu Mingxia's premature fame has also made other countries a little dissatisfied, they think that Fu Mingxia is still a child, how can China send a child to compete with us? As a result, the Olympic Committee subsequently stipulated that athletes must be over 14 years old to participate in the Olympic Games.
Mu Xiangxiong
Also forced to change the rules because of its strength is Mu Xiangxiong, a generation of Chinese "swimming gods". He has previously played invincible hands all over the world with a single-handed "Za Mengzi" diving swimming in China, and he can do it without ventilation in the 50-meter race, and even only use three breaths in the 100-meter race!
Because Mu Xiangxiong's swimming posture is too strange and incompatible with other foreign athletes, the FINA prohibits athletes from changing their breath in the competition on the grounds that "the use of diving swimming in swimming competitions is not conducive to the health of athletes", and Mu Xiangxiong also had to change the swimming method, but the results are still prominent. However, due to the political factors at that time, Mu Xiangxiong was never able to stand on the stage of the Olympic Games.
Chinese table tennis team
If the above is because of the individual strength of the athletes, then our national table tennis is undoubtedly a group of strong people together. Before 2008, the Olympic Committee stipulated that each country in the table tennis event could register three players, but in the 2008 Olympic Games, due to the strength of our country, finally there was such a scene on the podium after the men's and women's singles competitions - three five-star red flags were raised at the same time! Chinese men's and women's table tennis won all the gold, silver and bronze medals in the project! So later, in order to let athletes from other countries have a sense of participation, the Olympic Committee then stipulated that each country could only bring two players to the competition.
In addition, the case of the national table tennis federation changing the rules is far more than that, and it also makes the game more suspenseful - the 21-point system has been changed to an 11-point system, in order to be more suitable for the big European players - the small ball has been changed to a large ball, the long glue is restricted, the organic glue is abolished, and even the Tokyo Olympic Games have a funny rule that does not allow players to blow the ball, but so what?
Chinese badminton team
As we all know, the badminton serve is the side that receives the serve has the advantage, so the serving side is actually in a passive situation. However, there is nothing that our smart countrymen can't think of, before our badminton team came up with a trick - the tactic of hitting the badminton hair with a racket, so that the ball sent out has a rotation, directly causing the serving party to change from a disadvantage to an advantage. Because this move is too perverted, so the International Badminton Federation also modified the rules of the serve, stipulating that the ball must hit the head of the ball when serving, so as to eliminate our move. （ikuet）
