In the gymnastics men's individual all-around final at the Tokyo Olympics, China's Xiao Ruoteng performed perfectly but only won a silver medal, and the gold medal was awarded to Japan's Daiki Hashimoto, who once clearly landed on the ground and left the line with his right foot. After the competition, a number of gymnastics stars supported Xiao Ruoteng and questioned the Gymnastics judges of the Tokyo Olympic Games for being too protective of the host athletes.
After that final, former Olympic champion Yang Wei, former Olympic champion and former gymnastics captain Chen Yibing, and Chinese gymnastics star Li Xiaopeng all questioned the referee's score. Li Xiaopeng even posted on social media: It's not that I can't understand it, but that I understand it too well.
However, another gymnastics Olympic champion Xing Aowei recently put forward a different point of view in a program. He believes that although the score of the game is biased, although the score is controversial, it is within the rules.
Xing Aowei won the gold medal in gymnastics at the Sydney Olympics. Regarding the punishment suffered by Xiao Ruoteng, Xing Aowei said: "I went to look at the rules, (Hashimoto Daiki) that it is indeed a deduction of 0.1 points. I went to look at the rules again, and after landing, I had to greet the referee, and we (Xiao Ruoteng) forgot this item, and we should deduct 0.3 points. ”
Xing Aowei continued: "If I were the referee, I would give (Xiao Ruoteng) 14.3 points. (Xiao Ruoteng) scored 14 points, I also felt very surprised, but all of us do not know the truth, people should deduct 0.3 points. ”
Xing Aowei then gave an example of his own personal experience. In his first match, Xing Aowei finished very well, but the referee told him that because he did not wear trousers in the parallel bars competition, he wore shorts, deducting 0.2 points, thus losing the championship.
