As the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics draw closer, skiers around the world are fighting for their dreams. What I never expected was that there were short track speed skating world champions training during the day and delivering takeaways at night. It turned out that Élise Christie was part-time delivering pizza delivery to prepare funds for the Beijing Winter Olympics. On the other side, the 2021 Figure Skating World Championships are in full swing. Chen Hongyi, a Chinese player who participated in the World Championships for the second time, made a mistake in the competition and only ranked 21st and missed the medal.
Chasing dreams is not easy! World champion training during the day delivers takeaways at night
Chinese football in 2021 is in financial crisis, and some players have been exposed for long-term unpaid wages to make up for their families by delivering takeaways. In the international sports world, there was recently a world champion who trained during the day and delivered food at night for his ideals. According to foreign media sources, short track speed skating world champion Élise Christie part-time delivered pizza delivery to prepare funds for participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Élise Christie trained full-time in Nottingham, England, at the age of 15 and won a silver medal and team bronze medal at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics in the 1500m and 3000m. At the 2013 Swedish Short Track Speed Skating Championships, Christie won the 1500m and 1000m titles, and in 2014 in Dresden, he won the 1000m race.
So, Élise Christie was once again an important short-track skier for the British delegation. What I didn't expect was that the funds for participating in the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics were cut, and the delegation was directly reduced by 8 million pounds. So, to make up for the high cost of training and rehabilitation, Élise Christie was photographed training during the day and delivering food delivery during the night.
Not enough circles! Chen Hongyi's mistake in free skating was only ranked 21st
Gu Ailing won "two golds and one bronze" at the 2021 Ski World Championships, making a good start for the Chinese ski delegation. Subsequently, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong participated in the 2021 Figure Skating World Championships, starting with a double free skating song "Rain, in Your Black Eyes", and finally won the silver medal with a total score of 225.71. Then, the third star athlete Chen Hongyi, who appeared in the women's singles, slipped out of the division unfavorably.
As we all know, in the women's singles free skating event at the World Figure Skating Championships in Stockholm, Sweden, the representative of China is the beautiful actress Chen Hongyi. In fact, Chen Hongyi won the 19th place at the last Saitama World Championships, and slowly showed a lot of progress after two years of polishing. It is worth mentioning that the women's singles free skating has 39 players participating, and only the top 24 players in the "short program" competition can qualify for the "free skating". Chen Hongyi came in ninth place, ranking 22nd with 58.81 points to qualify for the promotion, and also set a new personal world championship short program best.
However, entering the "free skating" competition, the Russian delegation won the "gold, silver and copper" of the project. Chen Hongyi was sentenced to have less than three weeks of weeks in the outer ring and three weeks of Filipe, and only ranked 21st and missed the medal. After the game, Chen Hongyi said in an interview that his performance was not ideal and full of regrets. In view of the approaching of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Chen Hongyi also specially selected some Elements of Chinese Style to participate in the competition. The next step is to make up a program that suits you as soon as possible, so that your season will bring integrity and no regrets.
As the saying goes: "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."
In the cold winter sports, athletes are using their extraordinary training and life to pursue their dreams. Ski world champion Christie has to bear the high cost of training and rehabilitation for his dreams and for the honor of the country. But she used food delivery to move on. Chen Hongyi has experienced two figure skating world championships and will also be experienced, and I believe she will sum up her experience and return to China. Of course, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics is their dream, and we also hope that Élise Christie and Chen Hongyi will once again be on the podium.
