Behind the Glory | The coach tells about Shi Yuqi’s overnight surgery for a serious injury in 2019: He carried a urinal and bought painkillers at four or five in the morning
The focus of the Paris Olympic badminton men’s singles quarter-finals that ended in the early morning of August 3, Beijing time During the match, Chinese player Shi Yuqi , ranked No. 1 in the world, lost an upset 0-2 to Thailand's Kunlawutt, and ended up in the top 8 for the second consecutive Olympic Games.
After the game, Shi Yuqi himself immediately posted a message on social media to apologize for failing to win a medal. Shi Yuqi wrote in disappointment: "Sorry! Sorry for not winning a medal for the Chinese team!" Although it was just a short sentence, I believe he was too sad to say anything more.
Many netizens comforted him but also expressed disappointment: "Brother, you are sorry for yourself.": "Don't be sorry! I'm just sorry for yourself. Work hard and turn failure into motivation in the future!": "How to say, It’s really a pity, but what’s wrong with you!”: “You’re not sorry to anyone, but this result is really regrettable!”
Indeed, before this Olympics, Shi Yuqi was in excellent condition. The 28-year-old has won four tour championships this season and has surpassed the arrogant Danish player Axelsen to become the world's No. 1 player. But what was unexpected was that Shi Yuqi failed to perform well in the most critical Olympic arena, leaving huge regrets for his career.
With Shi Yuqi out, Guoyu has lost the men's singles championship for two consecutive years. The glory that was finally achieved in the era of Lin Dan and Chen Long is long gone. At the next Los Angeles Olympics, Shi Yuqi will be 32 years old and may have long since passed his peak. We can only look forward to the younger Li Shifeng and Weng Hongyang to carry the national badminton men's singles banner.
