The 2019 figure skating world championships ended in Saitama, Japan. In the 4-day competition, China Hua slip won a precious gold medal-Sui Wenjing/Han Cong, who recovered from injury, reached the top again two years later. Peng Cheng/Jin Yang, who is in good condition this season, ranked fourth in double skating. In addition, Jin Boyang won the fifth men’s singles in the duel of multinational Masters.
After the adjustment after the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, China huafai regained his feeling in this world championship. Starting from winning the championship of the “onion barrel combination”, China Hua slip made a good start in preparing for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
Double slip with double insurance”
In this world championship, Sui Wenjing/Han Cong, the silver medal combination of the Winter Olympics, staged the “Return of the King”, which greatly boosted the confidence of China’s flower slide.
After the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, Sui Wenjing underwent surgery due to a fracture in his right foot, which also missed the World Championship last year. After a long recovery period, the two didn’t return to the national championship until the end of last year. Due to the lack of systematic training, they only prepared a short program. In February this year, the “onion barrel combination” finally returned to the international arena and won the gold medal in the Four Continents flower skating championships.
However, after the four continents, Sui Wenjing was injured again in training and rested for more than 10 days. In this world championship, the two new programs of the Chinese team barely skated several times.
Perhaps just like the new songs “You are irreplaceable” and “rain in your eyes” of the two, only through the wind and rain and hardship can they know more about the irreplaceable precious. After two years, he stood on the stage of the world championship again. Sui Wenjing/Han Cong won the championship podium for the second time with his wonderful performance.
Sui Wenjing sighed after the game that this season was difficult and was not well prepared before. “But I know that as long as we can completely slide out of our program, the champion is ours.”
Another pair of Chinese team Peng Cheng/Jin Yang has been tested in several competitions, and their performance has become more mature. The fourth place in the world championship is also the best result for the two. Facing the test of Beijing Winter Olympics, the double-slip “double insurance” makes people more assured.
In next year’s World Championships, China will get three double skating places. Shen Xue, chairman of China Figure Skating Association, said that double skating experienced many difficulties and finally won the gold medal, saving more energy for the 2022 Winter Olympics. In particular, Peng Cheng/Jin Yang provoked the beam in the new season and made obvious progress.
Talking about the competition pattern of double skating in the world today, Zhao Hongbo, the head coach of China’s flower skating team, said that each country has its own technical characteristics and shortcomings, and its style will become more and more distinct. China double skating hopes to play a team advantage, and the overall strategic layout should be more detailed.
Jin Boyang’s challenge is not small
The men’s singles field is still full of stars. In the competition of Asian players, the American famous General Chen Wei won the championship in the Winter Olympics Yuzuru Hanyu, and the American “post-00s” general was known to win the third place. Chinese player Jin Boyang won the fifth place with his excellent performance of free skating when he made mistakes in the short program.
At the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, Jin Boyang won the fourth place debut, just one step away from the podium. However, entering the new season, his condition was not good. It was not until the four continents last month that he gradually recovered and gained a silver medal. In the short program competition of the world championships, Jin Boyang made mistakes in the actions around the hook, ranking only ninth. Entering free skating, he successfully completed three four-week jumps. Although he failed to get on the podium, it was more important to gain confidence.
When talking about the ups and downs of this season and the performance of the world championships, Jin Boyang said that after the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, he did not have a good rest and couldn’t calm down and fully put into training. But the failure at the beginning of the season woke himself up, and through the world championships, confidence and feeling were completely recovered.
In the face of the current situation of men’s singles and “fairy fights”, the challenges jinboyang faces can be imagined. In addition to old rivals such as Chen Wei, Yuzuru Hanyu, and Yuye Changmo, it is known that newcomers such as Fang Fang are also menacing.
In spite of this, Jin Boyang still said that he was still competitive in the difficulty of action and would work harder on the content and bonus points of the program in the future. “I hope that when I come to the Beijing Winter Olympics, I can show a performance like free skating in the world championships. I will work hard until 2022.” Jin Boyang said.
Women’s Single ice dance see hope
Women’s Singles facing the crisis of talent cut-off ushered in a new generation. 16-year-old general Chen Hongyi entered the free skating competition with the 15th short program, and finally ranked 19th.
Chen Hongyi, who can be called a “model worker”, played 18 games in the youth group and adult group this season. Chen Hongyi won 13 in the previous four continents competition. Shen Xue said that Chen Hongyi participated in the competition much more and grew fast, and he could already see the “international style. The national team is also considering hiring a foreign teacher for Chen Hongyi to let her train abroad for a period of time.
The ice dance project is still the world of European and American players, but the strength of the Chinese team is also improving. In this world championship, Wang Shiyi/Liu Xinyu won the 15th place and was the only Asian player to enter free skating.
In the first year after the Winter Olympics, China huafai was getting out of the previous dilemma. The performance of the world championship also made people see the hopes and problems. Shen Xue said that next season, different training plans, design competition goals and clothing arrangements will be formulated for each athlete to lay a good foundation for the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Zhao Hongbo also said frankly that the Chinese flower skating team will try its best to reduce the injuries of athletes next, and further focus on training reserve talents to solve the problem of age interruption and prepare for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
