on september 2, chinese swimming legend sun yang revealed a bombshell in a live broadcast - he has returned to the provincial team and re-entered high-intensity training. sun yang firmly stated in the live broadcast: "30 years old is the age to fight hard, and you should not enjoy comfort." this statement quickly ignited the internet and became the focus of heated discussion.

in the eyes of many people, 30 is an awkward age, especially in competitive sports, where 30 means the end of retirement. but sun yang doesn't think so. in the live broadcast, he said frankly that he still maintains the same amount of training as his younger teammates and constantly challenges his limits. he said frankly: "i have always felt that you should not enjoy comfort at the age of striving. swimming 800 meters freestyle is to challenge yourself and challenge difficulties. people can't just do what makes them comfortable."

sun yang's words undoubtedly injected more motivation and meaning into his comeback. on august 25, at the 2024 national summer swimming championships held in hefei, anhui, the 33-year-old sun yang returned to the arena after 1,680 days and won the men's 400m freestyle championship with a time of 3 minutes 49.58 seconds. this was not only sun yang's first event after his comeback, but also the best interpretation of his 30-year-old fighting spirit.
