Wang Lina is one of the important members of the history of the Chinese women's volleyball team, in 2011, after Wang Lina announced her retirement, she and her husband jointly ran a hot pot restaurant. In addition, she also started to get a tattoo of a large flower arm, so let's talk about her story today.
Extraordinary career
Wang Lina was born on February 5, 1978 and spent her childhood in Yingkou City, Liaoning Province. However, her father died when she was in elementary school, but the competitive Wang Lina attracted the attention of the volleyball coach of the Yingkou Gaizhou Amateur Sports School. Although her peers usually had parents pick them up from school, she often took the bus home alone, which was not uncommon in her childhood.
Because of her excellent physical fitness and outstanding jumping ability, Wang Lina has become the team's main attacker. In September 1990, she only stayed in the sports school for three months, and the Bayi women's volleyball team noticed her potential. At a young age, she left her hometown and went to Beijing alone to start her career. At first, Wang Lina played in the youth team of the Bayi women's volleyball team. She always performs well in competitions and is full of competition spirit and confidence.
Once, in the dormitory, Wang Lina watched TV with her teammates, and it happened to be "Animal World" being screened. The picture of a wild goose swooping down to grab food reminds everyone of Wang Lina's action of smashing the ball, and she has been nicknamed "wild goose" since then. However, the title "Big Goose" was not pleasant, so they simply called her "Big Bird", but Wang Lina liked the nickname.
In 1998, at the World Championships, although Wang Lina was a substitute, her fighting style won the favor of overseas audiences. Some have described her as turning volleyball into "lightning bolts", and her powerful smashes have conquered many Japanese audiences. With a height of 1.81 meters, she looks very resolute among ordinary girls, but she has no obvious advantage in the volleyball world, which is a field of "masters".
Against Croatia, she faced Barbara, who was 10 centimeters taller than herself. Despite the strength of her opponents and the fierce competition, she never showed weakness. Her powerful and threatening smash is like the demeanor of Lang Ping, the "iron hammer" back then. In three matches, she finished the second and third games with a powerful smash and a jump serve, respectively, which was so impressive that some even thought she might win the title of best player.
