On the evening of September 9, Beijing time, the women's doubles 10m platform final of the 14th National Games, the champion group Zhang Jiaqi / Chen Taoxi, who participated in the Tokyo Olympic Games, won the championship with 348.96 points without suspense, and Ren Qian, the 2016 Rio Olympic Champion and Sichuan Team's Ren Qian partner Lu Wei, won a valuable silver medal with 323.43 points, which was also the first medal of the Sichuan delegation in the diving event of the National Games.
Due to the excellent performance in the preliminaries, Ren Qian/Lu Wei ranked 11th in the final, before each round of competition, they both silently practiced the next action in the open space under the jumping platform, the coach instructed two sentences, and then, Ren Qian jumped into the water again, and when she got up, she would stand at the edge of the pool, silently recite this technical action in her heart, and finally find a feeling. Every round is so, meticulously.
Although in the fourth round, the 207C with a difficulty factor of 3.3 played average, and the last jump, the difficulty factor of 3.2 5253B, they played perfectly and finally won the silver medal. Coming out of the pool, Ren Qian hugged the coach tightly.
According to Hou Yuanyuan, the leader of the Sichuan diving team, the pairing time is not long, "Lu Wei returned from the national team in April, Ren Qian is in June, and the two of them practice together for two months." ”
In the post-match press conference, Ren Qian and Lu Wei both wore wet hair, wearing the uniform of the Sichuan team and wearing a mask. Ren Qian deliberately let her little sister Lu Wei speak, and Lu Wei seemed to be still upset about the small mistake of the fourth jump, "Thank you very much Sister Qian for taking me to the podium, because I didn't jump well today, and there were mistakes, and Sister Qian's play made up for my mistakes." Talking about the feelings of this game, Ren Qian was very calm: "I am very happy to stand on the podium again, and this medal is also worthy of my efforts during this time." ”
Four years ago, Ren Qian's partner Si Yajie cross-provincial combination also won a silver medal on the women's double 10-meter platform, and after four years, he won a silver medal again, in Ren Qian's words, "The biggest difference is age, four years ago I was still a child." For the jumping stage, I am also older, and I have injuries before leaving, so it is really not easy to persevere. "In this game, coach Li Sha is very satisfied with Ren Qian's performance," Ren Qian's play was very good, Lu Wei also played the usual training level, there was a little mistake, but overall, they were very satisfied with their performance. ”
In the game, Ren Qian's shoulders and back were pasted with performance glue, "There is a little injury, after all, so many years have been compared to so many games, this situation is relatively rare." Ren Qian also believes that the two-month pairing run-in time is very tight, "mainly rely on training, and the cooperation of teammates, after all, two months is relatively small." ”
Standing on the podium, Ren Qian is much taller than other players, on the 10-meter jumping platform, in terms of controlling the splash and completing the action, she is obviously much more difficult than those 13- and 14-year-old little sisters. The 21-year-old, as she said, is already the "advanced age" of the jumping platform, but she is very hard at controlling weight and losing weight, and it is indeed very difficult to win a silver medal again after four years, but Ren Qian only played 5 points for herself, "5 points, in fact, it is just this one that jumps ok, and there are other games in the back." On September 11, Ren Qian will also participate in the women's 10m platform jump single competition at the National Games.
