The Paris Olympics are about to kick off, but Sun Yang, the former Chinese Olympic champion in swimming, is unfortunately absent. On July 26, Beijing time, Sun Yang cried emotionally when talking about the Paris Olympics in the latest live broadcast, and he bluntly said that he really wanted to stand on the Olympic field again, win glory for the country, and fight for his dreams.
When Sun Yang shared the lyrics of "Horse Husbandry City" in the live broadcast, he said that as he grew older, he was more able to understand the deep meaning contained in the lyrics of the song. When the love was deep, Sun Yang even choked up and tears flickered.
In addition to this touch, Sun Yang confessed to his family affectionately, and he bluntly said that the past four years have been extremely difficult times for him. I am very grateful to my family for their continued dedication and support. He admitted frankly that he still has an immortal dream of racing in his heart, dreaming of one day being able to stand on that familiar track again and fight again for his family and himself.
Sun Yang, born on December 1, 1991, won three gold medals in the men's freestyle event for the Chinese delegation at the London and Rio Olympic Games. However, in June 2021, Sun Yang was banned for 4 years and 3 months because of violent resistance. The ban period began on 28 February 2020, and Sun Yang was absent from the Tokyo Olympics.
And although Sun Yang officially ended his ban on May 28 this year and he officially announced his resumption of training, Sun Yang missed the Olympic swimming trials and missed the Paris Olympics again. Now that Sun Yang is 32 years old, it will be doubtful whether he can hold out until the next Olympic Games in four years.
