After winning the championship with a full score of three jumps at this year's Tokyo Olympic Games and a world record, the 14-year-old Quan Hongchan quickly spread all over the motherland, countless praises and material rewards poured in, and too much interference from the outside world was not a good thing for Quan Hongchan, who was only 14 years old.
Just after Quan Hongchan won the championship, Zhou Jihong, the leader of the Chinese diving team, also gave a high evaluation to Quan Hongchan's performance at the first time, but at the same time, she was very sober and pointed out that although she won the Olympic gold medal, some factors such as physical development and future uncertainties such as injuries and illnesses will restrict future development. If you can't insist on training, maintain self-discipline in terms of diet and rest, the results will soon slip down, and this is the cruelty of competitive sports.
It can be said that zhou Jihong's team leader gave Quan Hongchan a very pertinent reminder, because this is the process that every diver must go through and the problem that needs to be stepped through. The 14-year-old Quan Hongchan is currently petite, which is also conducive to her ability to control the splash when entering the water, but as her body gradually develops, her size and weight are bound to change, which will bring a lot of uncertainty to her movements. If Quan Hongchan and her coach can formulate effective countermeasures in time, always pay attention to Quan Hongchan's physical changes, coupled with her hard training, this problem may be solved.
And now Quan Hongchan can refuse all commercial endorsements and return to training with peace of mind after the holiday, which also shows that the little girl and her coach are also aware of the trouble that this problem may bring, and are actively coping with and finding ways to solve it. This practice of thinking of danger in times of peace may be the reason why China's diving has been able to dominate the world for a long time and is known as the "dream team".
