On August 4, the 9th day of the Paris Olympics, Fan Zhendong won the men's singles gold medal, achieving a career Grand Slam. In the boxing competition, many players of the Chinese women's boxing team have secured Olympic medals in advance, and will next strive for the first Olympic gold medal for the Chinese team in this event. In addition, Zheng Qinwen, who won the first Olympic women's singles gold medal in tennis for China, also attracted much attention. What is the significance of this gold medal?

Will this be Fan Zhendong’s “last dance”?

In the men's singles table tennis final at the Paris Olympics, Chinese player Fan Zhendong defeated Swedish player Moregaard 4-1 to win the championship. Before leaving for Paris, Fan Zhendong said four words when forwarding the list of participants on social media:"The Last Dance", how do you evaluate his dancing posture in “The Last Dance”?
Bai Yansong:After Fan Zhendong won this gold medal, I felt that "The Last Dance" might not necessarily become a reality, because he is only 27 years old. Think about it, Captain Long is almost 36 years old, and when he was nearly 33 years old, he won the Olympic men's singles championship again. Maybe the Olympic men's singles gold medal can make people young and addictive at the same time, so I believe that after the 27-year-old Fan Zhendong won this gold medal,"The Last Dance"It may be postponed.
What do you think of China's first Olympic gold medal in tennis singles?

Bai Yansong:Of course, we pay attention to the number of gold medals, silver medals, and bronze medals at each Olympic Games, but some of the gold medals will still leave a deep impression on us. For example, the gold medals won by the women's volleyball team at the 2004 Athens Olympics and the 2016 Rio Olympics, and the gold medal won by Sun Yang on behalf of the Chinese men's swimming team at the 2012 London Olympics, including the gold medal won by Ye Shiwen when she broke the world record at the age of 16... These gold medals are very impressive. Many years later, when we look back at the Paris Olympics, among the first few gold medals that impressed us the most, it is estimated that no one will forget Zheng Qinwen's first Olympic women's singles gold medal in Chinese tennis. It has historical value and is a coordinate. In the past, her name may always be connected with other people's names, but from today on, Zheng Qinwen is Zheng Qinwen. In the history of Chinese tennis, she no longer needs to be connected with other people's names, but she will start a new line. And after this, in the process of Chinese tennis, how long will her paragraph be written? I think at the age of 21, everything is possible.
Li Na was 29 years old when she won her first Grand Slam title. Zheng Qinwen won the Olympic gold medal at the age of 21 and had also entered the Grand Slam finals before, so there is a lot of room for imagination in the future. She compared herself to Liu Xiang who won the Olympic gold medal at the age of 21. Behind her success is the increasingly strong foundation of Chinese tennis. In the Wimbledon competition before the Paris Olympics, a total of 11 Chinese men and women entered the main competition, and Zhang Zhizhen became the first Chinese male seed player in the history of the Grand Slam. It is precisely because of such a strong foundation that Zhang Zhizhen "shakes people" to shake Wang Xinyu and finally rushed to the finals of this Olympic Games. So the stronger the foundation, the greater the room for imagination in the future.
Lock in multiple medals and strive for the first Olympic gold!
Bai Yansong:Up to now, we must remember this number. We have a total of 6 female boxers in this Olympics. Except for one boxer who did not participate in the competition because the competition has not started yet, the other 5 have already won Olympic medals and may compete for gold medals. Before the Paris Olympics, I met Li Qian at the unveiling ceremony of the Chinese Olympic delegation's award uniforms held in Beijing. Li Qian is from the Inner Mongolia boxing team. As a fellow villager, I told her at the time that I must cheer for her during the Olympics. In addition, Yang Liu is also a girl from Inner Mongolia. I am very happy to see such a good performance in this competition. I see that the Chinese boxing team has made a great breakthrough and that Chinese boxing is having a better development. Therefore, I am particularly looking forward to whether this year's women's boxing can have a golden breakthrough. I think there may be more than one. Let us wish together.
