Shi Yuqi has won 4 tour championships this season and topped the world, but his performance in the Olympics is a bit unsatisfactory.
Some people say that his world's No. 1 points are like "brushing", and he will collapse when he reaches the big competition, such as this Olympics, when he was beaten 11:1 by his opponent in the second game, that scene is really sweaty.
Everyone began to miss the era of Lin Dan and Chen Long, and felt that the men's singles were now not accepted.
However, some people feel that if it is not broken, it may be time to reshuffle the cards.
After all, sports competitions are full of variables, so what will Shi Yuqi do in the future?
#一句话表达对巴黎奥运的期待#
Shi Yuqi was born in 1996 in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, to a family of ordinary workers.
He has been involved in badminton since he was a child and has shown extraordinary talent.
In 2001, he was selected by the badminton coach of the children's amateur sports school and began his badminton learning journey.
In 2009, he won the first place in the provincial competition of the same age group and successfully received the admission notice of Nanjing Sports School.
After that, he performed well in the Jiangsu Youth Badminton Competition, successfully entered the Jiangsu Provincial Badminton Team, and became a professional athlete.
Shi Yuqi's career can be described as full of ups and downs.
Since 2012, he has made his debut in the Asian Youth Championships and the World Youth Championships.
In 2014, he won the men's singles gold medal at the Asian Youth Badminton Championships and the men's singles gold medal at the Nanjing Youth Olympic Games.
In 2016, he won the Indonesia Badminton Masters, the France Open, and the Bitburg Open Badminton Open in Germany.
In 2018, he rose to second in the world rankings and won the All England Open Badminton Championships, among many other accolades.
The road to success has not been easy.
At the 2019 Indonesia Open, Shi Yuqi suffered a torn ligament in his left ankle, which dealt a major blow to his career.
The long recovery process after the surgery taught him to live with his injuries.
In the Sudirman Cup final in the same year, he performed well after returning from injury, successfully defeating Kento Momota and helping the Chinese team lock up the championship.
In the Sudirman Cup, Shi Yuqi's performance was quite eye-catching.
In the 2021 Sudirman Cup final, he defeated Kento Momota again, and even retched from exhaustion after the game; In the 2023 Sudirman Cup, he won all 5 games and was known as the "God of War".
Especially at critical moments, he can always show the spirit of stumbling to the end, and "carrying one more shot is one shot" is his belief.
Shi Yuqi also has an excellent team spirit.
He understood the importance of team interests and equalised against Kodai Naraoka after a mixed doubles defeat against Japan in the semi-finals of the Su Cup.
After the Su Cup award ceremony, he burst into tears and deeply felt that the strength of the team is indispensable, because there is always someone who will stand up in difficult times.
Although Shi Yuqi performed well in the team event, his Olympic performance caused some controversy.
For example, in a certain game, there was a disparity of 11:1 in the second game, and the overall appearance was powerless and lacking fighting spirit, which made fans who stayed up late to watch the game feel a little disappointed, and some even changed their support for the opponent halfway.
From a technical point of view, some people think that he has deficiencies in defense, running, jumping, buckle, etc., and there is still a gap compared with Lin Dan and Chen Long.
On a mental level, he was pointed out for his lack of masculinity, his tendency to break down in a tournament, his lack of willpower and fighting spirit, and his facial expression appeared nervous, as if he was embarrassed by the task.
However, Shi Yuqi also has his own advantages and growth.
He won four tournaments on tour this season and reached world No. 1 for the first time as the top seed at the Olympics.
He has reached the last eight in the last two Olympic Games.
Moreover, Shi Yuqi has experienced many injuries and accidents, and these setbacks have become his experience and lessons for growing up.
Injuries in 2019 left him with multiple surgeries, and the road to recovery was long and arduous.
And the previous ban turmoil also made him more mature and stable.
In the face of setbacks, he did not give up, but chose to persevere and work hard.
Today, Shi Yuqi is more determined and mature.
He is well aware of his responsibilities and hopes to improve the results and status of the Chinese badminton team in men's singles.
Although the road ahead is still full of challenges, his persistence and hard work give us reason to believe that he will continue to create his own glory in the badminton world.
Let's look forward to Shi Yuqi's better performance in the future competitions! After all, every athlete is constantly working hard and improving, and their dedication and persistence deserve our respect and encouragement!
In his career, he has risen to No. 2 in the world rankings and has won four tournaments on tour this season and also reached No. 1 in the world, which is undoubtedly an achievement to be proud of.
His outstanding performance in the Sudirman Cup has played a key role in three consecutive editions, and his hearty victories have shown us his strength and fighting spirit.
Especially in the face of strong opponents, he did not flinch and made great contributions to the team's victory, and this sense of team honor and fighting spirit is admirable.
His performance at the Olympics has sparked controversy again.
Seeing the disparity in scores and the seemingly lack of fighting spirit on the field can indeed make people a little speechless.
But we should also understand that an athlete's performance on the field is affected by a variety of factors, and perhaps at that moment he is facing unimaginable pressures and dilemmas.
Injuries are a big challenge for Shi Yuqi.
The effort and pain it took to get him back on the field after suffering a serious injury such as a torn ligament in his left ankle was unimaginable.
We resented why injuries had tormented such a talented athlete, but we were also moved that he had learned to live with injuries and return to the game with tenacity.
We, as spectators, should look at athletes from a more holistic and objective perspective.
They are not gods, but flesh-and-blood people who will have ups and downs and mistakes in their states.
Shi Yuqi has had ups and downs along the way, and while we are proud of his achievements, we should also give him understanding and tolerance when he encounters setbacks.
After all, every athlete is fighting for their dreams and the honor of their country, and their efforts deserve our respect.
Perhaps in the future, Shi Yuqi will face more challenges, but I believe that he will continue to grow and improve, and continue to write his own legend in the badminton world.
