Welcome to this special episode of China Compass, the fourth in a weekly series which I am calling “The Prison Pulpit”. I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben. Between now and the end of the year I am working through some of the writings of imprisoned Chinese pastor, Wang Yi, of Early Rain Covenant Church in Chengdu, China, which were published just before and after his arrest in December of 2018. You can follow me on X (@chinaadventures) where (among other things) I share a new prefecture and/or city to pray for daily. Visit PrayforChina.us to learn more. If you want to see the missionary books I’ve published and learn more about our work, you can find links to everything @ PrayGiveGo.us! One book that might be helpful is my little memoir, Unbeaten, which details my arrest, interrogation, and deportation from China in 2018. At the end of the book, I included an appendix entitled Remember My Chains, which is basically the manuscript (notes) from a message I have given dozens of times around the country dealing with this very topic: remembering and praying for the persecuted church, especially in China. You can get the book, Unbeaten, including the sermon, Remember My Chains, at Unbeaten.vip Today's excerpt from Pastor Wang Yi... God Raises Up (and Deposes) Kings On the basis of the teachings of the Bible and the mission of the gospel, I respect the authorities God has established in China. For God deposes kings and raises up kings. This is why I submit to the historical and institutional arrangements of God in China. As a pastor of a Christian church, I have my own understanding and views, based on the Bible, about what righteous order and good government is. At the same time, I am filled with anger and disgust at the persecution of the church by this Communist regime, at the wickedness of their depriving people of the freedoms of religion and of conscience. Don't forget to pray for our team (currently on the run) in China!

A new swimming world record, a first singles tennis gold and a string of historic moments to remember — the Chinese delegation ended its Paris Olympic campaign on a high note with resounding success both on and off the field.As the Olympic flame went out after an extraordinary show of human strength and endurance for two weeks, Team China's outstanding performance, highlighted by a record haul of 40 gold medals, the adorable nature of young athletes and their friendly exchanges with their foreign peers, was enshrined in the history of the Games in the French capital.Bolstered by the whopping contribution of 27 gold medals from its six traditionally strong sports — diving, table tennis, badminton, gymnastics, shooting and weightlifting — the Chinese delegation finished with 40 gold medals and a total haul of 91 in Paris, surpassing its previous record at the London Games in 2012 to achieve the nation's best outcome in gold medal tally at any overseas edition of the Summer Olympics.At Beijing 2008, it won 48 gold medals and 100 overall.On Sunday, the United States edged past China to finish on top of the Paris Olympics chart with a total medal haul of 126, including 40 golds.The first-ever clean sweep of all eight gold medals up for grabs in the Olympic diving discipline by China's "dream team" and the world-conquering Chinese table tennis squad's complete collection of all five titles have only cemented the nation's stranglehold on these sports.More encouraging, a series of major breakthroughs — such as China's first tennis singles Olympic gold, won by women's ace Zheng Qinwen, swimming prodigy Pan Zhanle's world record-breaking win in the men's 100m freestyle and teen cyclist Deng Yawen's trailblazing golden finish in BMX freestyle park — have all heralded China's strong foray into Western-dominated sports with much balanced athletic prowess.Zhou Jinqiang, vice-president of the Chinese delegation, said on Sunday at a news conference in Paris that the overall performance at the Games could be summed up with one word-"breakthrough"."We reached new heights in terms of the total number of gold medals won (at an overseas edition) and the number of events that we first won medals in. We also proved that our athletic strength has been significantly expanded to more sports," said Zhou.Zhou added that the Chinese delegation has successfully completed its mission and realized its goals.Sun Yingsha, world No 1 in women's table tennis, said that China's overall prosperity and strength have served as a proud source of motivation for all her fellow Olympians."It's really an honor, and we all played confidently, knowing that a strong home country is supporting us," Sun said, after helping her squad beat Japan 3-0 in the women's team final on Saturday to secure China's 300th gold medal at the Summer Olympics since the Chinese delegation's debut at Los Angeles 1984.By putting their colorful and vibrant images on full display at the pinnacle of their careers, China's modern-day Olympians have broken the stereotypes portrayed by Western media about their hard-working but sometimes reticent predecessors decades ago, representing a more open and confident generation of athletes who no longer hide their light under a bushel.In addition, being able to speak directly to the international audiences in fluent English has certainly helped this generation more.Chen Yiwen, who won two diving gold medals, in individual 3m springboard and the synchronized event with partner Chang Yani, has broken the language barrier and bonded closely with some of her formidable foreign rivals, while also exuding confidence during her international media interviews in English.Chen's adorable selfies with teammate Chang and Australian rival Maddison Keeney, the silver medalist in 3m individual, have gone viral on social media platforms at home and abroad, earning thousands of likes for the "true embodiment of Olympic value".Speaking about the friendship with her Chinese peers, Keeney said: "I feel like these girls, they're like my sisters. I'm just really lucky to be able to have a positive competitive relationship with them. No matter what happens on the board, it doesn't affect our relationships outside."Reporter: Sun Xiaochen

Underrated and overlooked, the Chinese women's field hockey team has made its presence felt big-time at the pinnacle of the sport by upsetting European power Belgium in a dramatic semifinal to advance into its first Olympic final in 16 years.被低估和忽视的中国女子曲棍球队在运动的巅峰时刻大放异彩，以戏剧性的方式在半决赛中击败欧洲强敌比利时，时隔16年首次进入奥运会决赛。Entering Wednesday's semis against the world No 3 team, the Chinese squad put up a gutsy fight as resiliently as it has been fighting at these Games, starting strong with a second-quarter goal from Zou Meirong and staying composed after an equalizer scored in the dying minutes by Belgium's Emma Puvrez tied the match 1-1 at the end of regulation.在该日对阵世界排名第三的球队的半决赛中，中国队展现了顽强的斗志，一如她们在本届奥运会上一直所展现的那样。比赛开始时，邹美蓉在第二节打进一球，强势开场；而当比利时选手艾玛·普弗雷斯在比赛的最后时刻扳平比分时，中国队保持了冷静，最终将比赛以1比1的比分带入了加时赛。After conceding two goals first in the nerve-wracking shootout, Team China kept its cool to score three back in a row. Goalkeeper Ye Jiao then rose to the high-stakes occasion, denying the Belgians' next three attempts with marvelous saves to secure Team China a final berth for the first time at an overseas Olympic Games.在紧张刺激的点球大赛中，中国队在先失两球的不利状态下保持了冷静，连续打进三球。随后，门将叶娇在关键时刻挺身而出，以精彩的扑救连续挡下了比利时队的三次射门，为中国队首次在海外奥运会上赢得了决赛资格。The last time China reached an Olympic final was at Beijing 2008 on home soil.中国上一次进入奥运会决赛是在2008年北京奥运会主场。As the lowest-ranked team in the semis at world No 6, Team China will continue fighting for a triumphant sequel to its David-vs-Goliath heroics when it challenges world No 1 the Netherlands in the Friday final at the Yves-du-Manoir Stadium in western Paris suburbs.作为世界第6，半决赛中排名最低的队伍，中国队将于8月9日，在巴黎西郊的伊夫·杜·马努瓦尔体育场挑战世界第1的荷兰队，续写以弱胜强的英雄壮举。Team China's head coach Alyson Annan, an Australian legend in the sport, said her girls will approach the final totally pressure-free.中国队的主教练是澳大利亚曲棍球届的传奇人物艾利森·安南，她说她的姑娘们将毫无压力的打入半决赛。"(We have) everything to win and nothing to lose," Annan, a two-time Olympic champion as a player, said after Team China's thrilling shootout win against Belgium on Wednesday.8月7日中国队以激动人心的点球大战战胜比利时后，作为两届奥运冠军的艾利森·安南说：“（我们有）一切可赢，却无所可失”。"We talked about this all the time since I started. We want to win a medal. We want to be on the podium in Paris. I almost say that at every single training. This is why we do this and we have to do this," Annan said of the confidence and mental strength she's installed within the team since she took over the Chinese program in 2022.安南表示，自2022年担任中国曲棍球队教练以来，她便不断提振队伍的信心和锻炼其赢取金牌的实力。她说：“从我接手训练起我们就一直谈论这个问题，我们想赢得金牌，想登上巴黎的领奖台，每次训练我几乎都会说一遍。”After all the country's other collective ball-sport teams crashed out of the Paris Games, the Chinese women's hockey squad has provided the whole delegation with a morale boost by securing at least a silver medal in Paris.即使中国的其它集体球类运动队伍全部退出巴黎奥运会，中国女子曲棍球队也至少能在巴黎赢得一枚银牌，这为整个代表团鼓舞了士气。"Hopefully what we did here could bring more attention to the sport in China, inspiring more girls to pick up a hockey stick and give it a try. This means everything for the sport's profile and for everyone on the team," Chinese captain Ou Zixia said after the win.比赛胜利后，中国女子曲棍球队队长欧紫霞说：“希望我们的努力能吸引更多的中国人关注这项运动，能激励更多的女孩拿起球杆，勇敢尝试，这就是运动本身和队内每个人努力的全部意义”。 Edgev.以微弱优势获胜Shootout n.（足球等运动的）点球大战，罚点球决胜负Equalizern.体育比赛中追平比分的得分

As the undisputed favorite in all diving events, China is once again reigning supreme at the Olympic Games with two gold medals already secured in Paris, leaving the rest of the world impressed by its focus, consistency and collective strength.作为所有跳水项目无可争议的夺冠热国，中国“跳水梦之队”在巴黎奥运会上再次领跑。目前，我国在巴黎奥运会上已荣获两枚跳水项目的金牌。“跳水梦之队”的专注度、稳定性、集体感都给世界留下了深刻的印象。Chinese men's pair Yang Hao and Lian Junjie held their nerve and executed six perfect dives, despite mounting pressure from formidable rivals, to win the synchronized 10-meter platform final on Monday, keeping Team China's hopes of an eight-medal clean sweep in diving alive.7月29日男子10米跳台双人跳决赛，中国选手杨昊/练俊杰在五轮比赛中一路领先，保持状态，完成了六次完美的跳水，保持了中国队在跳水项目上零封八枚奖牌的历史。 Leading from the first round, Yang and Lian kept their dives complete and clean to score a total of 490.35 points and win their first Olympic title in the synchronized event, after having collected three world championship trophies together.从第一轮开始，杨昊/练俊杰就保持了跳水的完整性，干脆利落地以总分490.35分夺得男子10米跳台双人跳的冠军，而此前他们已经拿到了三座世锦赛奖杯。Thomas Daley and Noah Williams of Britain executed near-flawless routines, but had to settle for silver after scoring 463.44 points. Canada's Rylan Wiens and Nathan Zsombor-Murray won bronze with 422.13 points.英国跳水名将托马斯·戴利与搭档诺亚·威廉姆斯以463.44分斩获亚军，加拿大选手赖兰·威恩斯与搭档内森·容博尔-穆雷以422.13分获得季军。After reclaiming the men's synchronized platform title from Daley and his former partner, Matty Lee, who won it at Tokyo 2020, the Chinese pair attributed their golden Olympic debut to their mental resilience and solid training before the Paris Games.2020年东京奥运会戴利与其前搭档马蒂· 李携手斩获男子跳水双人10米台金牌。本次中国“跳水梦之队”的奥运金牌首秀归功于他们在比赛前强大的心理素质和扎实的训练功底。"There are no always-victorious athletes, or teams, in competitive sports. We just prepared the best we could and performed well on the day," said Yang, 26, a five-time world champion."Consistent performance comes from hard work on a daily basis. Overall, I think we just outworked most of our rivals in training, so that we could deliver when it matters," he added.26岁便已获得五次世界冠军的杨昊在接受采访时表示：“竞技体育中没有永远的赢家。我们今天可能发挥得更好一点，才拿到这个冠军。还是靠之前比赛的积累，我们在训练中付出了很多努力，在关键时刻就发挥了作用。”Daley, who made his Olympic debut at Beijing 2008, fell short of upsetting his mighty rivals again, after having almost single-handedly spearheaded the rest of the world's charge against the Chinese team in the past four editions of the Games.戴利在2008年北京奥运会上首次亮相，而在过去的四届奥运会上，戴利几乎以一己之力领先世界其他国家，却始终不敌中国“跳水梦之队”。The 30-year-old diving celebrity, however, took pride in having at least proved that even China's "dream team" wasn't invincible.然而，这位30岁的跳水名将感到十分自豪，他曾证明：即使是中国“跳水梦之队”也并非永远的冠军。"I am so incredibly happy to come away with another medal this time with Noah; the achievement is coming back to competition readiness within a year," said Daley, who reversed his retirement plan last year to go for a fifth Olympics, and has only trained with Williams in synchronized platform diving since November.戴利表示：“我很高兴这次能和诺亚一起赢得银牌，这是我一年后回归赛场后重要的成就。”他于去年取消了退役，这是戴利第五次参加奥运会，而自2023年11月以来他才与诺亚·威廉姆斯同步参与训练。"China dived absolutely incredible today. Every single one of their divers is almost flawless. We were applying the pressure every single round, yet they didn't fall to it," he said, adding, "What's interesting is being able to have the hope and the belief that it's possible to beat the Chinese divers… they know how to perform the best in competitions. "戴利在评价中国跳水队时表示：“中国队绝对令人难以置信，每一名队员的表现几乎都是完美无瑕的。我们每一轮都在施加压力，但中国队并没有倒在强压之下。有意思的一点是我们有希望，也相信有击败中国跳水队的可能性，但显然中国队清楚如何在比赛中发挥出最佳水平。”Team China got its ambition of claiming all eight diving titles up for grabs in Paris off to a flying start on Saturday after women's duo Chang Yani and Chen Yiwen secured the first one in the 3-meter synchronized springboard event at the Paris Aquatics Centre in Saint-Denis.7月27日，中国队在巴黎水上运动中心举行的跳水女子双人3米板决赛中，张昌雅妮/陈艺文夺得金牌，离本次奥运会包揽8枚跳水全项目金牌更进一步。Sarah Bacon and Kassidy Cook of the United States won silver, while British duo Yasmin Harper and Scarlett Mew Jensen won bronze.美国的莎拉·培根和卡西迪·库克以314.64分获得银牌，英国的亚斯敏·哈珀和斯嘉丽·梅·詹森以302.28分获得铜牌。Performing five routines, the same as the Chinese women, in the final, the pair from the US tried to match their world champion opponents in execution, quality and synchronization. It turned out that Team China has dominated the same event six times in a row at the Olympics for a reason.在决赛中，美国组合完成了与中国组合类似的5个动作，试图在技术分、难度分、同步分上与中国相平。但事实证明，中国“跳水梦之队”在奥运会上蝉联跳水冠军的实力不容小觑。"The Chinese have been the gold standard in diving for decades," Cook said. "We studied a lot of their films, and we love watching them to learn from their dives. But we are also peers with them. Our goal is to beat them one day."Cook added: "Following them in the competition helps us do better. They are obviously putting the pressure on us, hitting the dives. They are kind of setting the standard. In a competition, I want to see good quality, and China forced us to have good quality to follow them up like that."库克表示：“几十年来，中国队一直是跳水的典范，我们研究了很多他们的比赛录像，也非常喜欢从他们的比赛中去学习。在比赛中效仿他们的动作能让我们进步。中国队显然也在给我们施加压力，在某种程度上设定了高标准。我们也希望在比赛中看到高质量的对决，中国跳水队让我们不得不维持好的心理素质才能和他们共同进步。但我们也和他们同龄，希望有一天我们能够击败中国队。”“Dream Team”n.中国“跳水梦之队”

China's world No. 1 team, Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha, have finally completed their major title collection by winning their first mixed doubles Olympic gold medal in Paris, paving the way for China's clean sweep of all five titles.7月30日，巴黎奥运会乒乓球混双决赛,中国组合王楚钦/孙颖莎以4-2战胜朝鲜组合,中国代表团拿下奥运会乒乓球混双项目首枚金牌,离获得五个乒乓球项目“金满贯”更进一步。Roared on by an enthusiastic crowd, mainly Chinese fans, at the South Paris Arena, Wang and Sun, the men's and women's reigning world No. 1 players respectively, held off a strong comeback from Ri Jong Sik and Kim Kum Yong of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to prevail 4-2 in the high-profile final on Tuesday and secured the first gold medal up for grabs in table tennis at the Paris Olympics.在南巴黎竞技场，看台上的观众大多都为中国球迷，为中国乒乓球代表队王楚钦/孙颖莎热烈欢呼。备受瞩目的乒乓球混双决赛中，“莎头”组合以4-2战胜了朝鲜组合李正植/金琴英，获得了巴黎奥运会乒乓球混双项目首枚金牌。Having won almost every major trophy together, including two mixed doubles world championship titles in 2021 and 2023, Wang and Sun relished their first Olympic gold together as a special one, particularly following Team China's final loss to host Japan in the mixed event's Olympic debut in Tokyo in 2021.自2017年搭档，王楚钦/孙颖莎共同奋战每一场比赛，赢得的荣誉不胜枚举，此前获得过2021、2023年乒乓球混双世锦赛的冠军。2021年东京奥运会乒乓球混双项目失利夺金，此次巴黎奥运会“莎头”组合终于成功圆梦，享受属于他们的首枚奥运金牌。"This mixed doubles gold is probably the medal I wanted the most. I have to thank everyone around us who contributed to this win," said Wang, a six-time world champion across men's team, men's doubles and mixed doubles."It was the work and effort of everyone that helped us pull it off. We put in so much for this gold, it now all feels worth it. This is not just our glory, it belongs to the entire team."作为乒乓球男子单打、男子团体、混合团体的六届世界冠军，王楚钦在接受采访时表示：“这枚混双金牌可能是我最想要的，十分感谢在异国他乡还能看到这么多‘中国红'，听到熟悉的呐喊和加油。这么多年来，正是有你们的支持和鼓舞，使得我们遇到困难的时候，依然能坚持下来，赢得比赛。这枚金牌是中国乒乓球队全队努力的结果。（赢得）这枚混双金牌太不容易了，我们值得这枚金牌，（金牌）不只是代表我们两个，也是代表整个球队。” In the Tokyo Games mixed doubles final, Japanese pair Jun Mizutani and Mima Ito outlasted China's Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen 4-3 in a seven-set thriller to snatch the very first mixed doubles Olympic gold, denying China's attempt to bag all five gold medals.在2021年东京奥运会混双决赛中，许昕/刘诗雯“昕雯联播”组合苦战7局，不敌日本组合水谷隼/伊藤美诚，获得银牌，第一次在奥运会乒乓球共计五个项目中失利大满贯。Now, with Tuesday's win opening its Paris 2024 campaign on a high note, Team China will go all out to achieve a gold medal clean sweep in Paris with four more events - men's and women's singles and teams - to go.而此届巴黎奥运会，中国取得混双决赛的胜利为乒乓球项目拉开帷幕，中国队必将全力以赴接下来的四个乒乓球项目——男单、女单、男双、女双——实现巴黎奥运会乒乓球五个项目大满贯。"I feel like a heavy stone was released from my heart. It was a big relief to get this one done. There are more to go for sure. Hopefully we could build on this opening victory to secure Team China's dominance in other events," said Wang.王楚钦表示：“这块混双金牌积在我心中太久了，我们今天做到了。我们还有很长的路要走，希望我们能在这场胜利的基础上再接再厉，向世界展示中国乒乓球力量。”Sun attributed the triumph to the chemistry she's developed with Wang since they first started to play doubles in 2017.孙颖莎表示，自2017年“莎头”组合搭档以来，两人都互相扶持、互相鼓励、互相弥补，一路走来，这次的胜利也和他们的默契密不可分。"I'm thankful to my partner for all the work we put in over the last three years. We've known each other since we were kids and grew up together. We're pleased with the result today, and hope we'll be able to continue to do well in the coming events," she said.她在接受采访时表示：“这三年多我们俩的付出都是值得的，也非常感谢我的搭档。我们2017年开始搭档，现在也有七八年了，彼此都非常熟悉，大大小小的比赛都拿过冠军了，但奥运会对我们来说也是最神圣的、最伟大的舞台。在巴黎奥运会上，我们齐心协力一起把这枚金牌赢下来。”

While she may be a fan of cute hair clips and puppies like the rest of her peers, Huang Yuting is not your average teenager. 尽管黄雨婷像同龄人一样喜欢可爱的发夹和小狗，但黄雨婷的暑假却不同于其他青少年。As most of her classmates enjoy their summer holiday by hanging out with friends, going to the movies or shopping, Huang, a 17-year-old high school girl from Taizhou, Zhejiang province, will probably have the coolest summer memories of them all — going to Paris and winning an Olympic gold medal. 大多数青少年暑假都会与朋友外出、看电影、逛街，而来自浙江台州的17岁的黄雨婷可能会拥有同龄人中最酷的暑假——前往法国巴黎参加奥运会并获得中国首金。And it wasn't just any random medal, but the very first gold up for grabs at the Paris Games — in the 10m air rifle mixed team — which got the Chinese delegation off to a scintillating start at the world's biggest sporting extravaganza.这枚奖牌是我国在巴黎奥运会上争夺的首金——10米气步枪混合团体金牌——中国代表团在这场世界级体育盛会上取得了辉煌的开端。Huang, and fellow teen shooter Sheng Lihao, held their collective nerve to outgun South Korea's Park Ha-jun and Keum Ji-hyeon 16-12 with poise and marksmanship beyond their years, winning the high-stakes final at the Chateauroux Shooting Centre, 250 kilometers south of Paris, on Saturday. 7月27日，黄雨婷和同为00后的射击运动员的盛李豪在距离巴黎250公里的沙托鲁射击中心以16-12的比分击败了韩国队朴是晙和琴智贤。Her golden Olympic debut has turned Huang into a household name overnight in China, drawing instant interest in her upbringing, hobbies and even the accessories she wears — just like what happened with her senior counterpart Yang Qian, winner of Team China's first gold in Tokyo three years ago in the women's individual 10m rifle. 黄雨婷的奥运金牌首秀让她一夜之间家喻户晓；其成长经历、爱好，甚至她比赛时戴的发夹都让大家十分感兴趣——如同三年前东京奥运会上夺得中国女子10米气步枪金牌的杨倩一样。The little barrette Huang wore to keep her long hair off her scope on Saturday soon became a trending topic on Chinese social media, reminding fans of a similar situation in 2021, when Yang's "yellow duck" hair clip ended up a best-selling item following her Tokyo Games win. 7月27日，黄雨婷比赛时戴的发夹让不少粉丝们想起了2021年与之类似的情况，当时杨倩的“小黄鸭”发夹在东京奥运会夺冠后成为网络畅销。Younger and fresher, Huang comes across as an even more composed shooter than Yang — who didn't qualify for Paris — as she kept her emotions in check throughout Saturday's final, even after having won the biggest prize of an athlete's career on her first try. 而更年轻、更朝气的黄雨婷带给观众的感觉相较未参赛的杨倩更沉着冷静。当日决赛后尽管获得人生中最重大的奖项，黄雨婷仍然控制着自己的情绪。"It's basically all the same, as far as what I need to do in a competition," Huang said during a news conference when asked how different the Olympics feel compared to other events. "Of course, the Olympics naturally come with greater attention, and I just needed to improve my mental focus to avoid being distracted by whatever happened outside of my control. ""Perhaps we looked calm on the outside, but deep inside, we were very nervous. We just didn't show it. "黄雨婷在被问到比赛和平时有何不同时表示：“比赛和平时训练基本上是一样的。奥运会肯定会带来更多关注，我在心里不停地告诉自己，将注意力投入到动作中，给自己好的心理暗示。可能我们看起来很冷静，但是我们内心非常紧张，可能只是没有展示出来。”"It's a great honor, a payback for what I've worked so hard for over the past year. It's a new beginning, though. I will start over from zero again," said Huang, who turns 18 in September. 黄雨婷说，她将于今年9月满18岁，她表示：“这是一个巨大的荣誉，也是对我过去一年努力的回报。面对马上到来的18岁，希望依然能够不忘初心。” A student-turned-Olympic shooter, like many of her teammates in China's decorated national program, Huang started part-time shooting training in 2016 when she was drafted into a junior sports academy for her imperturbable and resilient character, according to her first coach Lin Kehan. 据她的启蒙教练林克寒说，黄雨婷是一名学生出身的奥运射击运动员。她像其他运动员一样，从2016年开始进行射击训练，在国家队中表现出色，被选入黄岩少体校。"She's had a big heart since she was little, and a competitive drive that made her always accomplish her assignments better than expected," Lin said of Huang's raw talent. 教练林克寒在谈到黄雨婷的射击天赋时表示：“她成功主要秘诀是心理素质很强大的。竞争使她总是比预期完成得更好。” Eight years on, the quiet, puppy-loving girl, who fills all her social media profile photos with adorable dog pictures, has impressed at the Olympics as one of world's most fearsome rifle shooters. 八年过去了，这个沉着冷静、所有社交媒体头像都是小狗的女孩，在奥运会上给所有人留下了深刻印象。Her partner Sheng is not short of talent either. 而她的搭档盛李豪也非等闲之辈。The 19-year-old from Jiangsu province built on his silver-winning campaign in Tokyo to finish a step higher on the podium at his second Games in Paris. 这位来自江苏年仅19岁的选手在在东京奥运会已获得一枚银牌，而此次巴黎奥运会是他第二次登上奥运会的领奖台。Three years ago, Sheng became the youngest shooter — at 16 years and 233 days — to win an Olympic medal, when he finished second in the individual 10m air rifle, an event he is expected to contend for gold in this time around in Paris. "I just did what I do, and took care of my business," a calm Sheng said after the final, where the Chinese team's 12-6 early advantage was cut to 14-12 toward the final round. "If the result goes our way, like it did today, we will happily take it and feel honored to win glory for our country. If it doesn't, then I am OK. It won't affect my preparation for the individual event in any way whatsoever." 三年前，年仅16岁的盛李豪成为当时获得奥运奖牌最年轻的射击运动员。在男子10米气步枪比赛中获得银牌，预计他将在本次巴黎奥运会上争夺金牌。盛李豪在混合团体气步枪决赛中国队12-6前一轮优势在最后一轮被追赶至14-12最后仍然赢得金牌时平静地表示：“我只是做了我该做的事。如果结果像今天的比赛进行得一样，我们感到很高兴，也为国家赢得比赛而感到荣幸。如果没有，也没关系，结果不会以任何方式影响我对个人项目的准备。”The final in the mixed event involves the two teams starting from zero, and the men and women each take shots in succession. The winning team in each round earns two points, while both teams each score one point in case of a tie. The first team to accumulate 16 points or more wins the match. 混合团体气步枪的决赛由两支队伍从男子和女子各先后射击，每轮比分更高的队伍获得两分，如果出现平局，两队各得一分。第一个拿到16分或以上的队伍赢得比赛。"Last time competing at the Olympics, I was quite nervous as a rookie. I was not mature enough mentally and technically," Sheng said of his progress. "I studied each of my competitions, focused more on training and, now, the Olympic gold has come naturally as a result of my hard work — and, perhaps, a little bit of luck." 提及比赛的进步时，盛李豪谦虚地表示：“上次参加奥运会时，作为新人，我当时还挺紧张的，在心理和技术上都不够成熟。我研究了每场比赛，更专注于训练，现在，奥运金牌如期而至了，也许还有一点运气在身上。”Youthful surge As one of the world's most successful teams in shooting at the Olympics, the Chinese contingent has racked up 67 medals, including 26 golds, at the Games since the country's Olympic debut in 1984. The surge of youthful power in the sport, underlined by the fact that all four rifle shooters in Paris were born after 2000, has heralded an even stronger future for the Chinese program, which boasts a tradition of identifying and developing talent early on from schools across the country. 作为世界上在奥运会上最成功的射击队之一，中国射击队自1984年首次亮相奥运会以来，已经在奥运会上斩获67枚奖牌，其中包括26枚金牌。 巴黎奥运会的四名气步枪射击运动员都是00后，中国的体育项目在未来将散发更蓬勃的朝气。我国气步枪拥有从全国各地的学校挖掘和培养运动员的传统。Professional and flexible training programs, customized to accommodate student athletes' school routines, and a transparent domestic trial system for major events, have seen the number of young aspirants mushroom in recent years. 根据学生运动员的学校生活量身定制专业灵活的训练计划，以及国内全透明的重大赛事选拔，近年来，我国年轻有为的运动员不断增加。"We've developed a lot of young athletes, who are never shy from taking responsibility and are all keen on proving themselves on the international stage," said Liang Chun, director of the national administrative center of shooting and archery. 国家体育总局射击射箭运动管理中心主任梁纯表示：“我们培养了很多年轻运动员，他们勇于承担，热衷于在国际舞台上证明自己。”The maturing of China's next generation of talent has seen defending Olympic champion pair in 10m air rifle — Yang Qian and Yang Haoran — both knocked out of the Paris 2024 roster, proof of the program's deep talent pool, Liang said. 随着中国下一代天赋运动员的不断精进，东京奥运会10米气步枪冠军杨倩、杨浩然未获得此次巴黎奥运会参赛资格，梁纯表示，这证明了我国气步枪深厚的人才库。"They are young, but have both already pulled through many tests. We are confident in their future," Liang said of the success of Sheng and Huang. "I've always tried to remind our young athletes to not care too much about the results of one particular event. They all have a long way to go, and many more opportunities to realize their career goals."在谈到黄雨婷、盛李豪夺冠时，梁纯表示：“他们都很年轻，但是已经经历了很多的考验。我们对他们的未来充满信心。我一直告诉年轻运动员不要太在乎比赛结果，他们都有很长的路要走，还有更多的机会来实现他们的目标。”air riflen.气步枪

A special RRM Episode.

Want to help make soccer a cleaner and fairer sport? Sign up to become a supervisor.想要帮助足球成为一项更清朗公平的运动吗？一起成为足球社会监督员吧。As part of China's ambitious soccer revival project, the Chinese Football Association has introduced a public supervision system, inviting ordinary fans, media representatives and local disciplinary inspectors to oversee daily operations of the sport's governing bodies at all levels and report any wrongdoings or disciplinary violations as whistleblowers.中国一直踌躇满志想要复兴中国足球，为此，中国足协引入了公众监督制度，邀请普通球迷、媒体代表和地方纪检人员充当吹哨人，监督各级足球运动管理机构的日常运作，并举报任何不当行为或违纪行为。The move to get the masses involved was announced on Thursday, as former Chinese men's national team head coach Li Tie stood trial over allegations of bribery and match-fixing at a court in Xianning, Hubei province.该举措于3月28日公布。同日，前中国男足国家队主教练李铁因涉嫌贿赂和操纵比赛的指控在湖北省咸宁市法院接受审判。Earlier this week, former CFA president Chen Xuyuan and four other officials of governing bodies were given prison sentences for corruption-related crimes, which have taken a heavy toll on the sport's profile and the integrity of domestic competitions in recent years.本周初，中国足协前主席陈戌源和其他四名管理机构官员因腐败相关犯罪被判处有期徒刑，这些罪行近年来对中国足协的形象和国内赛事的诚信造成了严重损害。The supervision system is open to applicants who love the game of soccer, care about the sport's development, possess basic knowledge of the sport, and have administrative experience with a strong sense of social responsibility, according to a regulation released on the CFA website.根据中国足协网站发布的规定，足球监察员岗位面向热爱足球运动、关心足球运动发展、具备足球运动基础知识、具有行政管理经验和强烈社会责任感的社会人士。Qualified public supervisors will be granted a wide range of responsibilities, such as hearing work reports from the CFA and providing feedback, overseeing league operations from player selection to referee assignment, collecting suggestions, and reporting any misconduct of officials, professional players and staff members of organizations involved in soccer development, the regulation said. Public supervisors will initially be appointed as volunteers for two years, with those making exceptional contributions to be eligible for reappointment.该法规称，一名称职的社会监督员要承担多项职责，例如听取中国足协的工作报告并提供反馈，监督从球员选拔到裁判指派的联赛运作，收集建议以及举报官员、职业球员和工作人员的不当行为。成功应聘者会首先成为志愿者，任期两年，做出特殊贡献的人有资格续聘。The CFA also announced on Thursday the introduction of a reward mechanism to encourage tips about violations such as match-fixing, gambling and bribery that manipulate competition results to tarnish fair play in the sport. Reports of such violations will be welcomed at all levels, targeting all competitions, organizations and wrongdoers, the CFA regulation said.中国足协还宣布引入奖励机制，鼓励举报假球、赌博和贿赂等操纵比赛结果、损害体育公平竞争的违规行为。欢迎公众对此类违规行为涉及的各级各类赛事、组织和违法者进行举报。Verified sources providing solid tips will be compensated with cash ranging from 2,000 yuan ($276) to 20,000 yuan, depending on the value of information. Those who make key contributions in exposing and cracking down on serious cases will be given extra rewards, the CFA said.终审法院表示，提供可靠线索且查证属实者将依据具体信息价值获得2,000元（276美元）到20,000元不等的现金奖励；对揭露和打击严重案件做出重要贡献者，将给予额外奖励。As China pushes ahead with its goal of developing into a world powerhouse in the sport, a goal highlighted in a reform project approved by the State Council in 2015, the fight against corruption shall be carried on with tougher actions, CFA Party chief Zhang Jiasheng said.国家体育总局副局长、中国足协党组书记张家胜表示，2015年国务院批准的一项改革方案设定了建设世界体育强国的目标，在目标推进过程中，反腐败斗争将更加严厉。"We have to continue fighting all disciplinary violations with stricter and more aggressive measures, and intensify anti-graft efforts at all levels to clean up the sport for good," Zhang, who is also a vice-minister of the General Administration of Sport, said at a meeting discussing soccer development and reform on Wednesday.3月27日，张家胜在足球发展和改革会议上说道：“我们要继续以更严厉、更严厉的措施打击各种违纪行为，加大各级反腐力度，坚决维护体育正风肃纪”。Observers said the introduction of external scrutiny will help improve the credibility of the governing body's anti-graft campaign, but more efforts are needed to guarantee that valuable feedback, suggestions and tips are respected, handled appropriately and implemented transparently.观察人士表示，引入外部审查将有助于提高管理机构反腐运动的可信度，但还需要加大力度确保宝贵的反馈、建议和线索得到尊重、妥善处理和透明实施。"These new initiatives show the CFA's resolve to shake off the ill repute overshadowing the game. It's more important, though, to see how they can be implemented," said Han Qiaosheng, a former sports commentator with China Central Television.中央电视台前体育评论员韩乔生表示：“这些新举措表明中国足协决心摆脱给这项运动带来的不良声誉。不过，更重要的是如何落实”。To meet a major goal highlighted in the soccer reform project, the Chinese men's team has been going all out to qualify for the FIFA World Cup, following its sole appearance in the tournament in 2002. A 4-1 Asian zone qualifier win at home against Singapore on Tuesday, the men's side's first international victory in four months, kept alive Team China's hopes of making the 2026 tournament and offered Chinese fans a rare reason to celebrate following years of struggle supporting their underachieving national squad.为了实现足球改革的重大目标，中国男足继2002年首次参加世界杯后，全力以赴争取世界杯参赛资格。3月26日，中国队在亚洲区预选赛主场4比1战胜新加坡队，这是国足四个月来首场国际比赛胜利，保住了进军2026年世界杯的希望，难得地振奋了粉丝信心。但在过去，由于国家足球队成绩不佳，这种希望总是很微薄。"We've supported the national team through ups and downs without regret. We hope all the efforts will eventually pay off," said He Sheng, a die-hard fan and a volunteer referee with a level two national certificate, after watching the match in Tianjin.铁杆球迷、国家二级证书志愿裁判何升在天津观看完比赛后说道：虽然风风雨雨，但我们一直支持国足，并且无怨无悔。希望所有人的努力都能得到回报”。CFACourt of Final Appeal终审法院public supervision system公众监督制度disciplinary violation违纪行为

Led by a butterfly queen in red-hot form and the newly crowned breaststroke king, Chinese swimmers have capped their Asiad outing with a huge confidence booster for the upcoming Olympic campaign next year.With youngsters in their prime and revitalized veterans dominating the pool, the Chinese swimming contingent finished the six-day program at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou with an all-time high of 28 gold medals among a best-ever total haul of 58 gongs at the continental sporting jamboree.The solid performances of China's reigning world champions and some promising young talent, after a hectic period featuring three major meets over two months, have raised expectations for the squad to make a splash at next year's Paris Olympics.The solid performances of China's reigning world champions and some promising young talent, after a hectic period featuring three major meets over two months, have raised expectations for the squad to make a splash at next year's Paris Olympics.Women's butterfly superstar Zhang Yufei and men's breaststroke specialist Qin Haiyang extended their success from the world championships in July to the Hangzhou meet, where Zhang overcame an illness to collect six golds to tie the individual title record at a single Asiad, while Qin repeated the historic breaststroke treble he claimed at the worlds in Fukuoka, Japan.They were among many Team China swimmers who competed at the World University Games in Chengdu, which were sandwiched between the worlds and the Asiad."The intensity of competing on the international stage as frequently as we did this year was exceptionally high, requiring a lot of hard work, discipline and sacrifice to pull it off, which I think we did," Qin said on Friday at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Aquatics Sports Arena, after winning the men's 50m in 26.35 seconds.The 24-year-old from Hunan province made himself a household name at the worlds in July when he became the first man in history to sweep all three breaststroke titles — 50m, 100m and 200m — in Fukuoka, while shattering Australian Zac Stubblety-Cook's former 200 world record with a blistering surge of 2:05.48.Joining Qin in lighting up the Hangzhou pool was women's reigning Olympic champion Zhang, who collected all three butterfly titles, a gold in 50m freestyle and two relay wins to equal Japanese swimmer Ikee Rikako's six-gold haul at the 2018 Asiad in Indonesia.Zhang achieved her medal tally despite an illness that took a heavy toll on her strength. The defending 200m fly Olympic champion couldn't even talk, due to a sore throat after she overcame fatigue and a fever on Thursday night to bring home gold in the 50m free final.Having withstood tough tests at three major meets in a row, Zhang, a fan favorite, said she could look forward to Paris 2024 with tons of confidence."Every race I swam this year, I did so preparing for Paris. I try to swim as many events as possible at every meet to improve my consistency and endurance so that I can step up a gear when needed in Paris," said the 25-year-old Jiangsu native.To the excitement of diehard swimming fans, the return of celebrated veterans, such as former women's medley star Ye Shiwen and men's backstroke specialist Xu Jiayu, to the international spotlight has enhanced Team China's medal credentials for Paris 2024.Ye, who shot to fame at the 2012 London Olympics by winning both individual medley golds (200m and 400m) at just 16, won her first Asiad gold in nine years, clinching the 200m breaststroke title on Thursday. Ye said she's set for a career rejuvenation at the age of 27."Despite winning gold, the result did not live up to my expectations to be honest, so I don't think I have reached my peak yet," the Hangzhou native said.Chinese swimmers rewrote Asiad records in 17 events in Hangzhou and collectively broke Asian records in six events — Tang Qianting in women's 50m breaststroke (29.92), Pan Zhanle in men's 100m free (46.97), Wang Shun in men's 200m individual medley (1:54.62) and three other relay events."I think Chinese swimming has completed the transition from the last generation of champions to the younger and stronger group of world-class swimmers," said breaststroke legend Luo Xuejuan, a bid ambassador for the Hangzhou Asiad."We have experienced swimmers remaining competitive and stars like Zhang and Qin in their prime. We have every reason to expect more champions to be crowned at Paris 2024,"said Luo, who won the women's 100m breaststroke at the 2004 Olympics.Reporter: Sun Xiaochen

With a huge lead of nearly 10 seconds, Chinese duo Zou Jiaqi and Qiu Xiuping claimed the first gold of the Hangzhou Asian Games, winning the lightweight women's double sculls title at the Fuyang Water Sports Centre on Sunday.中国组合邹佳琪和邱秀萍以近10秒的巨大领先优势，在周日（9.24）的富阳水上运动中心夺得赛艇女子轻量级双人双桨冠军，夺得杭州亚运会首金。"We are thrilled to win the first gold of the Games. Before the first competition day, we didn't think too much about the result. The most important thing for us was to enjoy the Asian Games as much as possible. I believed we could win," Zou told China Daily.“我们很高兴能赢得本届运动会的第一金。在第一个比赛日之前，我们没有过多考虑结果。对我们来说，最重要的事情是尽可能地享受亚运会。我相信我们能赢，”邹佳琪告诉中国日报。The duo is now firmly focused on reaching the highest step of the podium at next summer's Paris Olympics.这对组合现在将目光投向巴黎，期待在明年夏天的巴黎奥运会走上最高领奖台。"As we earned our ticket to the 2024 Olympics, with the help of our coaches, at the world championships, our goal is claiming the title in Paris," said Qiu.邱秀萍说：“我们在教练的帮助下赢得了2024年奥运会的入场券，下一个目标是在巴黎夺冠。”Speaking of how they managed to win the gold in such style, the two highlighted persistence and experience.谈及他们是如何以这样的风格赢得金牌的，二人强调了坚持和经验。"We have kept pushing ourselves and growing. We have put in a lot of hard work during years of training. I always say we should treat each training session like a major event final, but during an actual final, we just need to consider it one of our daily training sessions. We just need to do our best every single day, and we can achieve our goals," said Qiu.邱秀萍说：“我们一直在鞭策自己不断成长。在这些年的训练中，我们非常努力。我总是说，我们应该把每一次训练都当作一次重大决赛，但在实际的决赛中，我们只需要把它当作我们每天的训练之一。我们只需要每一天都做到最好，实现目标就是水到渠成的。”And for Zou, a native of Zhejiang, the Asian Games gold medal is particularly special.而对于浙江人邹佳琪来说，亚运会金牌尤为特殊。"Fuchun is my mother river. When I was a kid, I grew up drinking its water, so it feels amazing to win the first gold medal of the Asian Games here. The Fuyang Water Sports Centre is very professional and I hope that more high-level events can be held here," said Zou.她说：“富春江是我的母亲河。我喝着它的水长大，所以在这里赢得亚运会第一枚金牌感觉太棒了。富阳水上运动中心非常专业，我希望能在这里举办更多高水平的比赛活动。”"I want to thank all the people who have contributed a lot to help us get here. I can always feel the love and support of my family, friends and my fellow Zhejiang natives.""我要感谢所有为我们成功提供帮助的人。我时刻感受到家人、朋友和我的浙江同胞们的爱和支持。"The 21-year-old Zou said that she always sees Qiu, who is two years older than her, as a big sister. Zou added that she was the quieter one of the two, but they can both be talkative and excited once they start rowing.21岁的邹佳琪称她总是把比她大两岁的邱秀萍当成姐姐。邹佳琪补充说，她是两人中比较安静的一个，但是一旦开始划船，她们两个都能变得健谈和兴奋。"I'm a very quiet person, but during the training sessions and competitions, I'm not quiet at all. We always encourage each other. In my eyes, my partner is brave, beautiful and persistent," said Zou.邹佳琪说：“我是一个很安静的人，但在训练课和比赛中，我一点也不安静。我们总是互相鼓励。在我眼里，我的搭档很勇敢，很美丽，很执着。”Qiu used the exact same three words to describe Zou. They are a "perfect match" both on and off the water.邱秀萍用完全相同的三个词来形容邹佳琪。他们在水上和水下都是“最佳搭档”。"I'm usually the one who talks the most, while she listens patiently. Together we achieve our goals. Although she is quiet, she always offers great suggestions. I always tell others that we are a perfect match for each other," Qiu added.邱秀萍补充说：“我平时讲话比较多，她主要是耐心倾听。我们一起实现了目标。虽然她很安静，但她总是提出很好的建议。我总是告诉别人，我们是最佳搭档。”"We don't only share the samegoals. For instance, during training, if there's an area in which I am not particularly strong, she is always good at it. That works both ways. It's really great to have a partner like her.""我们不仅是有共同的目标。比如在训练中，我可能这边弱一点，她那边强一点，我们是互补的。有一个她这样的搭档真的太棒了。”"And if people think she's too quiet to encourage me, then they are wrong. She always helps and encourages me during tough times."“如果大家觉得她太安静不会鼓励我，那就错了。在困难时期她总是帮助和鼓励我。”Another athlete to shine on the first official day of competition was Chinese wushu star Sun Peiyuan, who won Team China's first gold medal at the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games. He once again reached the top step of the podium by winning the men's changquan title in Hangzhou.另一位在正式比赛的第一天脱颖而出的运动员是中国武术名将孙培原。他在2018年雅加达亚运会上赢得了中国队的首枚金牌。在杭州亚运会，他再次赢得男子长拳项目的冠军。"Compared with the Asian Games in 2014 and 2018, I am a lot more mature. I still remember in 2018, I was so nervous before the start of that competition, but this time, in Hangzhou, I just wanted to enjoy the Games as much as possible," said the 34-year-old Sun, who won his first Asian Games gold at Incheon 2014.“与2014年和2018年的亚运会相比，我成熟了很多。我还记得2018年，比赛开始前我很紧张，但这一次，在杭州，我只想尽可能地享受比赛，”34岁的孙培原说。孙培原2014年在仁川获得了他的第一枚亚运会金牌。"Among all three golds that I have won, this is the most special. I was so confident when I stood on the mat, surrounded by the home crowd.""在我赢得的三枚金牌中，这是最特别的一枚。当我站在赛场上，被主场观众包围时，我非常自信。”"I want to promote wushu, so that more people can learn about, and embrace, the sport. I hope that one day wushu will be added to the Olympic program," he said."我想推广武术，让更多人了解和接受这项运动。我希望有一天武术能够加入奥运会项目，"他说道。Duo英/'djuːəʊ/美/'duo/n.搭档

President Xi Jinping will attend Saturday's opening ceremony of the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, the Foreign Ministry announced on Thursday.The grand sports gathering is expected to create more opportunities to boost public fitness, enable the global community to better understand China and build up the nation's competitiveness in sports.Xi will also hold a welcoming banquet and bilateral events for visiting foreign leaders from Cambodia, Syria, Kuwait, Nepal, Timor-Leste, South Korea and Malaysia from Friday to Saturday, the ministry said.The president's personal participation in the upcoming Hangzhou Asian Games, as well as in the Beijing Winter Olympics last year and the Chengdu Universiade this past summer, represents a key part of his vision to build China into a strong country in sports, said analysts.Wang Xiaozan, a professor at Shanghai-based East China Normal University's College of Physical Education and Health, said that hosting three major sports events within a time span of less than two years has significantly enriched China's experience in this regard. It has improved sports infrastructure and spurred the public's enthusiasm for boosting their fitness, Wang said.She said the events will help the younger generation garner a high level of sportsmanship.“Most importantly, it will build up the nation's sports population, a key aspect of developing China into a country strong in sports,” she said.The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, for example, fueled a national drive to get 300 million people involved in winter sports, an initiative set out by Xi in the bidding stages for the global sports event.International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach said during Xi's visit to the IOC headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2017 that the Chinese president has a clear vision of sports' important role in society and in the education of young people.Zheng Zhiqiang, a professor of sports industry and governance at Jimei University in Xiamen, Fujian province, highlighted the emphasis made by Xi, an avid sports fan, on steering China's sports development to a higher level.Xi said in an interview in 2014 that he likes swimming and mountain climbing, and is a fan of soccer, volleyball, basketball and tennis.Zheng said that Xi's interest and personal involvement in sports have given him a deeper understanding of the role of sports in social development.With the emphasis from the Chinese president, the public fitness campaign has become a national strategy, and building China into a strong nation in sports has become an important part of the Chinese dream, he said.Meanwhile, the past decade has seen significant progress in China's sports development, with Team China making major breakthroughs at Summer and Winter Olympics, as well as at other major global competitions.Moreover, public participation in sports has reached new heights, said Wang, the professor at East China Normal University.“The accessibility of sports grounds has improved remarkably in communities across the nation, and physical education has a much more important role in school curriculums,” she said.For the Chinese president, sports have also served as a major channel to build up ties with other countries and a bridge to reach out to local people.In a reply letter sent to the US-China Youth and Student Exchange Association and friends from the US state of Washington last month, Xi wrote that sports are “a bond that promotes friendship among peoples”.Over the years, Xi has visited the academy of English Premier League soccer club Manchester City, where he posed for selfies with the club's then star striker Sergio Aquero, and jointly watched with Russian President Vladimir Putin a friendly ice hockey match in Tianjin between Chinese and Russian youth teams.He also watched a friendly soccer match between Chinese and German youth teams in Berlin with then Chancellor Angela Merkel in 2017 and received a No 10 jersey of the Argentine national soccer team, the number worn by soccer superstar Lionel Messi, during a visit to South America in 2014.A strong country in sportsn.体育强国Hangzhou Asian Gamesn.杭州2022年第19届亚运会Chengdu Universiade英/ju:nɪ'vɜ:sɪæd/美/ˌjunə'vɜsɪæd/n.成都大运会（第31届世界大学生夏季运动会）

The Minnesota Timberwolves are effectively replacing Taurean Prince with Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Troy Brown Jr., and the decision is a sound one. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) breaks down why Alexander-Walker and Brown Jr. are both better fits for the Wolves -- and at the same combined salary as what Prince would have made. From perimeter defense to shooting profiles, NAW and Brown are clear upgrades for Chris Finch's bench. Also, Kyle Anderson is officially playing for Team China and another Western Conference team is interested in former Wolves wing Jaylen Nowell. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Chinese sprint legend Su Bingtian on Monday announced he will not race at this year's World Athletics Championships and the Hangzhou Asian Games due to injuries.6月12日，中国短跑名将苏炳添官宣，因身体原因，他将不会参加今年的世锦赛和杭州亚运会。"Because of my physical condition, I have decided not to participate in the trials for this year's World Athletics Championships and the Asian Games. I am ending my 2023 season," Su, the men's 100m Asian record holder, wrote on Weibo.苏炳添是男子100米亚洲纪录保持者，他在微博上写道：“由于身体原因，我已经决定不参加即将开始的世锦赛和亚运会田径项目选拔赛，并提前结束2023赛季。”"As a 34-year-old sprinter, I have sustained many injuries through the years which have made it difficult to prepare for this season. I have been struggling to cope physically with my training, and my team has conducted a series of tests on my body. I have also sought advice and help from many people.“作为一名34岁的短跑运动员，多年积累的伤病和流行病后身体机能的变化，给我今年的备战带来了不同程度的困难。自从身体在训练中出现不良反应，队伍为我进行了一系列的检查与测试，并积极地向各方咨询、寻求帮助。”"Therefore, based on expert medical opinion and after discussions with my team, I have to give up on this season. A period of rest and recuperation is required to ensure I can have a longer athletic career. I will pay close attention to the forthcoming world championships and the Asian Games, and I will be cheering for all of Team China's athletes."“最终，经过专家建议与团队协商，为了能够更好地延长竞技运动生涯，我不得不放弃今年的比赛，进行一段时间的休息与调整。接下来，我会持续关注布达佩斯世锦赛和杭州亚运会中国队的表现，为队友们加油、喝彩。”The shock announcement instantly became a trending topic on Chinese social media. The hashtag "Su Bingtian quits 2023 world championships and Asian Games" had been viewed over 15 million times in just an hour, with netizens wishing the veteran a speedy recovery.突如其来的官宣迅速成为中国社交媒体上的热门话题。仅一小时内，“苏炳添决定不参加世锦赛和亚运会”这个话题就已突破1500万次浏览量，网友们纷纷祝愿这位名将能够早日康复。Su has been one of China's brightest stars on the track in recent years.近年来，苏炳添一直是闪耀在中国体坛的一颗明星。He dashed into the history books at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 by becoming the first Chinese to reach an Olympic 100m final, refreshing the Asian record to 9.83 seconds in the process in his semifinal.他在2021年的东京奥运会上创造历史，成为首位进入奥运男子100米决赛的中国选手，并在半决赛中以9.83秒的成绩刷新亚洲纪录。Last year, Su became an Olympic medalist after Team China was promoted to third place in the men's 4x100m relay final in Tokyo due to the disqualification of second-place Britain over a failed drugs test.去年，由于英国队因一次药检不合格而被取消资格，苏炳添和中国队在东京男子4x100米接力决赛上获得了铜牌。In 2015, Su became the first-ever Asian-born sprinter to break the 10-second barrier in the 100m. In 2018, he twice equaled the previous Asian record of 9.91, and clocked 9.92 to take that year's Asian Games 100m title in Jakarta.2015年，苏炳添成为第一位突破10秒大关的亚洲选手。2018年，他两次追平了之前的亚洲纪录9.91秒，并以9.92秒的成绩赢得了雅加达亚运会100米冠军。As the reigning Asian Games 100m champion, Su was expected to be one of the main attractions for home fans in Hangzhou. His best performance this season was a 60m gold (6.59 sec) at an indoor meet in Gothenburg, Sweden in February.作为亚运会百米冠军，苏炳添有望成为杭州主场球迷最受瞩目的选手之一。在本赛季中，苏炳添的最佳表现是在瑞典哥德堡的室内比赛中获得60米金牌（成绩为6.59秒）。"Su started this season with a victory in February, which was considered a sign that the veteran could shine at the world championships and the Asian Games this year. After that indoor event, Su originally planned to compete in more events to level up his condition," read a commentary by thepaper.cn.据澎湃新闻一篇评论所述，“苏炳添在二月份取得胜利，被视为这位资深选手今年在世锦赛和亚洲运动会上有机会取得辉煌表现的迹象。在那次室内赛事之后，苏炳添原本计划参加更多比赛以提升状态。”"Su Bingtian had already said that Hangzhou could be his last Asian Games and he really hoped to go for glory again on the track. He has reached the twilight of his career. He has trained for the last two years in Guangdong, where he also acted as a mentor for younger runners.“苏炳添曾表示杭州可能是他最后一次参加亚运会，他非常希望能够在赛场上再创辉煌。他已经步入职业生涯的黄昏阶段。在过去两年里，他一直在广东进行训练，并担任年轻跑者的导师。”"Su has been trying his best to maintain his own fitness. He wanted to display the persistence which will inspire the younger generation to keep up his pace."“苏炳添一直在努力保持自己的身体状态。他想展现出坚持不懈的精神，激励年轻一代跟上他的步伐。”Su stressed that he is not entertaining any thoughts of retirement just yet, and should his recovery go as planned, he will be targeting a spot at next year's Paris Olympics.苏炳添表示，他目前并不考虑退役，如果恢复顺利，他将力争参加明年的巴黎奥运会。"I won't stop chasing my dreams. I will use this period to recover and I will prepare as best I can for the Paris Olympics," he wrote on Weibo.他在微博上写道，“与此同时，我也不会停下逐梦的脚步！我会利用这段时间积极恢复，全力以赴地备战2024巴黎奥运会。”"I want to thank everyone for all their care and support. See you again next season."“感谢所有人对我的关注与支持。期待下个赛季见！”Su's withdrawal is a blow to Team China's hopes of topping the podium in Hangzhou, with the recent form of other nations — particularly Japan — suggesting the host faces an uphill task to claim gold in the 100m and 4x100m competitions.对期望在杭州亚运会上夺冠的中国队而言，苏炳添的退出是个不小的打击。尤其是近期日本等国的表现显示，作为东道主的中国在100米和4x100米比赛中面临着巨大的挑战。Xie Zhenye will now spearhead China's challenge in Hangzhou. The 29-year-old holds the 200m Asian record and was a member of the medal-winning 4x100m relay team in Tokyo.谢震业将成为中国队在杭州的领军人物。这位29岁的选手持有200米亚洲纪录，并且是东京奥运会获奖的4x100米接力队的成员。Xie's fastest 100m time this season was 10.05 in Chongqing earlier this month after spending months at a training camp in the United States.谢震业本赛季100米的最快成绩是在本月初在重庆达到的10.05秒，此前他在美国的一个训练营度过了几个月。"The national championships were the first event I participated in since my return from the training camp, where I made many adjustments," said Xie after the nationals.谢震业在全国锦标赛后表示：“全国锦标赛是我从训练营回来后参加的第一个比赛，我进行了很多调整。”"I've still got the trials for the Asian Games and world championships to come this year. These are all tough challenges, and I will have to keep leveling up. I feel like I've been pretty solid this year.“今年我还有亚洲运动会和世界锦标赛的选拔赛。这些都是艰巨的挑战，我需要不断提升自己。我感觉我今年的表现相当稳定。”"I hope I can make some breakthroughs at this year's Asian Games at home."“我希望能在今年的亚洲运动会上取得一些突破。”Athletics英/æθˈletɪks/美/æθˈletɪks/n.田径，竞技Sprinter英/ˈsprɪntə(r)/美/ˈsprɪntər/n.短跑选手

Badminton's biggest mixed team event, the Sudirman Cup, is underway in Suzhou, China. As the most successful country in the event with a record 12 trophies, China aims to defend the title in front of the home crowd but there are some setbacks. In this episode we look at what is going on with the Chinese team's title bid, and discuss whether Team China's dominance in major badminton tournaments is declining.

Head Coach of St. Cloud State women's hockey team, Brian Idalski, joins us for episode #217.

As Euro 2024 qualifiers get underway, we take a look at defending champion Italy's qualification hopes as well as England's promising squad as Harry Kane became England's all-time top scorer. Meantime, Cristiano Ronaldo reached another milestone for the most international caps in men's games. Will there be a place for him in Portugal's Euro 2024 squad? Finally, we analyze Team China's friendly against New Zealand, the first game since new coach Aleksandar Jankovic took charge, and see what has changed about the Chinese squad.

My guest today is back for the second time but a lot has changed since we last heard from her. She played in the Olympics for Team China, won World Championship gold, signed a contract in the PHF and was recently named an all-star. Please welcome back to ATP Hockey Talks, Leah Lum.

Newly appointed coach Aleksandar Jankovic has set the goal of leading the Chinese national football team to the 2026 FIFA World Cup finals. Meantime, China's youth team shone at the U-20 Asian Cup, advancing to the knockout stages for the first time in nine years. How realistic are China's World Cup chances? Also, should top Chinese football officials preserve the naturalization policy to introduce more overseas talents?

After a long hiatus (and likely, we will go into another extended break, lol), we are back with a new episode! The first for the year and the last? Anyways in this episode, we had Ren Dong Chen on the podcast as well as Leonardo Sucitra (as a stand-in for Kedric, who is currently head-deep into his Ph.D. and life duties) to discuss all things weightlifting, specifically on Chne's experience with being a coach and being part of Team China taking LiJun Chen on his miraculous gold medal run in the Tokyo Olympics.

The hashtag "Li Tieunder investigation" had been viewed over 600 million times in just fivehours by Saturday morning, with most netizens expressing their astonishment andfrustration at the troubles of Chinese soccer.尽管尚未公布案件细节，但这份简短的声明仍然震惊了中国足球界，并成为周末大多数社交媒体平台上的热门新闻。截至11月26日上午，“李铁被调查”的标签在短短五个小时内被浏览超过6亿次，大多数网友对中国足球表示惊讶和失望。"From a star player to the head coach of Team China, Li Tie is nowunder investigation for suspected serious violations of discipline and law.Apart from astonishment, what we actually need is a comprehensiveinvestigation," read a commentary by Chinanews.com.　　“从叱咤风云的球场中坚，到国足主帅，再到涉嫌严重违法被通报接受调查。除了唏嘘，我们更期待有关方面彻查相关案件和责任人。”中国新闻网评论道。"As the Chinese saying goes, we have to 'dig out the carrot to seethe dirt', as we need to build a cleaner environment for Chinese soccer. Weshould leave no room for any illegal activities in Chinese soccer."“正如古话所说，我们应‘挖起萝卜带出泥'，让中国足球环境更加清朗，让违法违纪行为无处藏身。”According to Beijing Youth Daily, Li's last public appearance was earlythis month when he attended a soccer clinic at a sports university in Shenyang,Liaoning province, where he posed for pictures with students. On Nov 9, Liattended a senior coach training session conducted by the Chinese FootballAssociation in Dalian, where he was taken away for investigation.据北京青年报消息，李铁最后一次公开露面就在11月初。当时身在沈阳的他曾赴当地一所高校，参加了一项足球训练公开课活动。活动结束后，他还与现场的学生们合影。11月9日，李铁在大连参加了中国足协职业级教练员培训班。在培训班所在地，李铁被有关部门带走。"It's still not clear whether Li Tie's case has any connection withhis stint in charge of the national team or whether there are any otherprominent figures of Chinese soccer involved. But this will surely be a newstorm in Chinese soccer, which attracts huge attention from society," readthe Beijing Youth Daily report.“李铁的问题是否涉及国足，是否还有足球业内人士牵扯其中，目前还不得而知。但围绕此次事件，中国足坛是否会掀起一场新的风暴，令社会各界非常关注。”北京青年报写道。As a former Everton midfielder and star national team player, Li took theTeam China reins in January 2020 from Marcello Lippi. The Italian WorldCup-winning coach was at the helm for the start of China's Qatar World Cupqualifying campaign but resigned after a disappointing defeat to Syria inNovember 2019.作为前埃弗顿中场和国家队明星球员，李铁在2020年1月从马塞洛·里皮手中接过了中国队的帅印。这位意大利世界杯冠军教练曾在中国的卡塔尔世界杯预选赛开始时掌舵，但在2019年11月中国队输于叙利亚后辞职。Li enjoyed some initial success as the team secured a place in the finalphase of Asian zone qualifying in June 2021. However, Team Chinamanaged just one win in that final phase, against Vietnam in October 2021, amonth before Li's final game in charge — a draw against Australia.2021年6月，李铁在亚洲区预选赛的最后阶段取得了一些初步的成功。然而，中国队在最后阶段只取得了一场胜利（战胜越南队），那是在2021年10月，也就是李铁执教的最后一场比赛（中国队和澳大利亚队平局）之前的一个月。Those disappointing results and his sparing use of the squad'snaturalized stars sparked heavy criticism from fans. And the coach's emotionaloutburst after the game against Australia, when he branded his detractors"mental", only served to give his critics more ammunition.这些令人失望的结果和他对归化球星的谨慎使用引发了球迷的强烈批评。在对阵澳大利亚的比赛后，李铁情绪激动，怒批那些诋毁他的人 “没有脑子”，而这只会给他的批评者更多的弹药。Li was engulfed in more controversy when he erased the logo of TeamChina's sponsor from pictures he posted on Weibo in November 2021. He was also accusedof using his position to plug several other products in the same post. All ofthese incidents culminated in his resignation as Team China head coach.2021年11月，李铁在微博上发布照片，照片中的国足赞助商标志却被去掉了，这引发了更多争议。他还被指控利用自己的职位在同一帖子中插入其他几款产品，所有这些事件最终导致他辞去中国队主教练的职务。As a member of the only Chinese squad to play at a World Cup, in 2002,there had been high hopes for Li when he was installed in the job, with fansalso valuing his experience as a player at English top-flight club Evertonacross four seasons.作为唯一一支参加过世界杯的中国队成员，李铁是国足冲击2002年世界杯成功的功臣，当时人们对他寄予厚望，球迷们也很看重他在英格兰顶级俱乐部埃弗顿效力四个赛季的经历。However, all those expectations have evaporated now.然而，所有这些期望现在都烟消云散了。"Li Tie is an iconic name for Chinese soccer, and fans are veryfamiliar with him. During his playing days, he was the iron midfielder of thenational team and he shone at the 2002 World Cup," read the Chinanews.comcommentary.根据中国新闻网评论，“李铁的名字，对于中国男足来说，再熟悉不过。球员生涯的他是常年镇守国家队中场的“铁腰”，也曾在2002年韩日世界杯的舞台露过脸。”"From his peak to his current low, Li Tie has always been at theforefront of Chinese soccer… Chinese soccer has been criticized for many yearsfor its poor performance, and attracted huge public attention. It still shouldhave great expectations from fans.“浮沉起落间，他始终在一线亲历着中国足球的点滴变迁。中国足球成绩不振，多年以来颇受诟病，而足球行业汇聚公众关注和国民期待。”"We need a healthier environment to develop soccer in China. It'shoped that this case offers Chinese soccer a chance to bounce back from thislow, instead of being just another footnote to more decline."　“足球行业更需要健康的发展生态。希望这一案件能成为中国足球触底反弹的契机，而不只是沉沦中的一个注脚。”inspection英 [ɪnˈspekʃ(ə)n] 美 [ɪnˈspekʃ(ə)n]n.检查midfielder英 [ˌmɪdˈfiːldə(r)] 美 [ˌmɪdˈfiːldər]n.中场队员ammunition英 [ˌæmjəˈnɪʃ(ə)n] 美 [ˌæmjəˈnɪʃ(ə)n]n.弹药

Team China identified as bronze winner of Olympic relay race｜认证了！中国接力队递补东京奥运铜牌！Team China was identified as the third place finisher of the men's 4x100mrelayat the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, according to the official website of IAAF on Monday.3月21日，国际田联在官网正式发文认证中国男子4×100米接力队队员递补获得了东京奥运会该项目的铜牌。The website of the governing body of the world's athletics added Olympic bronze winner in the honors summaries of China's Su Bingtian, Xie Zhenye, Wu Zhiqiang and Tang Xingqiang, who finished fourth at the final race with 37.79 seconds in Tokyo in August 2021. Italy, Great Britain and Canada were the top three.在国际田联的运动员介绍中，苏炳添、谢震业、吴智强、汤星强的资料上都标注了奥运会铜牌。在去年8月举行的东京奥运会4×100米接力比赛中，这四名队员以37秒79的成绩拿到4×100米接力的第四名，意大利队、英国队和加拿大队分获前三名。Britain's team wasstrippedof its silver medal after its first leg runner Chijindu Ujah was confirmed to have violated anti-dopingregulations.由于英国队第一棒选手奇金杜·乌贾违反反兴奋剂规定，英国队的接力银牌将被剥夺。Ujah tested positive for prohibited substances enobosarm (ostarine) and S-23, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMS) in an in-competition test after the final race. The substances are all prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).乌贾于东京奥运会男子4X100米接力决赛后接受了赛内兴奋剂检查，发现其体内含有违禁品“依诺波沙姆”（也称“奥司他林”）和S-23（一种选择性雄性激素受体调节剂SARMS），这是世界反兴奋剂机构一贯禁止使用的。The Court ofArbitrationfor Sport (CAS) ultimately found Ujah in violation of IOC Anti-Doping Rules after his B-sample analysis conducted in September 2021 confirmed the results of A-sample andruled onFeb 18 that his results in the men's 4x100m relay final as well as his individual results in the 100msprintat the Tokyo Olympics be disqualified.由于在2021年9月发现乌贾的奥运B瓶尿样检测结果为阳性，国际体育仲裁法庭(CAS)最终于2021年2月18日发布公告，表示乌贾违反了反兴奋剂条例，贾在东京奥运会男子4x100米接力决赛和男子100米比赛中取得的成绩都将被取消。This will be the first medal in the history for the Chinese relay team. The men's team won the silver at the 2015 Beijing Athletics World Championships.这是中国男子接力队在奥运会上获得的首枚奖牌。2015年北京田径世锦赛男子4x100米接力决赛上，中国队获得了银牌。relay英 [ˈriːleɪ]；美 [ˈriːleɪ]n. 接力比赛;中继设备;轮换者doping英 [ˈdəʊpɪŋ]；美 [ˈdoʊpɪŋ]v. 给…用兴奋剂arbitration英 [ˌɑːbɪˈtreɪʃn]；美 [ˌɑːrbɪˈtreɪʃn]n. 仲裁;公断rule on英[ru:l ɔn]；美[rulɑn]就…进行裁决[作出决定]sprint英 [sprɪnt]；美 [sprɪnt]n. 短跑

Paralympics set Games 'benchmark'｜北京冬残奥会为世界树立标杆After a warm closing ceremony and the extinguishing of the Paralympic flame in the maincauldron, the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games concluded on Sunday after giving testimony to how sports can bring the world together, while the Games have left legacies for the host nation and future Paralympics.随着主火炬的熄灭，北京2022冬季残奥会于3月13日闭幕。它见证了体育如何将全世界团结在一起，为今后的主办国和未来的残奥会留下了宝贵遗产。International Paralympic Committee President Andrew Parsons declared the closing of the Beijing Winter Paralympics, witnessed by President Xi Jinping at the iconic National Stadium, also known as the Bird's Nest, on Sunday night in Beijing.3月13日晚，在北京国家体育场（鸟巢），国际残奥委会主席安德鲁·帕森斯宣布了北京冬残奥会的闭幕，国家主席习近平出席了闭幕仪式。"If Beijing 2008 started a new chapter of growth for the Paralympic Movement, then Beijing 2022 has marked a newdawnfor the Paralympic Winter Games," Parsons said at the closing ceremony.帕森斯在北京冬残奥会闭幕式上说，“如果说北京2008年残奥会开启了残奥运动发展的新篇章，那么北京2022年冬残奥会则标志着冬残奥会的新曙光。”"You promised simple, safe and splendid. You delivered stunning, secure and spectacular. Awesome organization, vibrant venues and sensational sport－thehallmarksof great Games here in Beijing.“你们承诺的是‘简约、安全、精彩'，你们做到的是令人惊叹、安全可靠、精彩非凡。令人惊叹的组织、充满活力的场馆和激动人心的运动，成为了北京奥运会的标志。”"For sure, China has set abenchmarkfor all future Winter Games. For certain, China is now a Paralympic winter sports powerhouse," Parsons added.帕森斯补充道，“中国已经为未来的冬残奥会树立了标杆。毫无疑问，中国现在是残疾人冰雪运动大国。”Topping the medal table with 18 gold, 20 silver and 23 bronze medals, Team China made major breakthroughs at the Beijing Winter Paralympics, presenting home fans with China's best-ever results in any Winter Paralympics.在北京冬残奥会上，中国代表团以18枚金牌、20枚银牌、23枚铜牌的骄人战绩，领跑金牌榜和奖牌榜，实现了巨大突破，为世界各地的观众展现了中国在冬季残奥会上有史以来最好的成绩。The Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council, China's Cabinet, sent acongratulatorymessage to the Chinese delegation for its "best in history" performance at the Beijing Winter Paralympics.中共中央、国务院向北京第13届冬残奥会中国体育代表团致贺电，庆祝中国体育代表团“取得了我国参加冬残奥会的历史最好成绩。”The delegation has earned glory for China and the Chinese people and made important contributions to the success of hosting the Beijing Winter Paralympics, according to the message.贺电中提到，中国体育代表团“为祖国和人民赢得了荣誉，为成功举办北京冬残奥会作出了重大贡献。”Among the 96 Chinese para athletes, 85 participated in the Winter Paralympics for the first time, and their average age is 25. Given the fact that China won its first Winter Paralympic gold medal at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Games, in wheelchair curling, the nation's surprising performance wowed the world.出战本届冬残奥的96名运动员当中，85人都是第一次参加奥运的“新兵蛋子”，平均年龄只有25岁。2018年平昌冬奥会的轮椅冰壶比赛中，中国队才第一次获得冬残奥会金牌，而如今中国的表现令世界刮目相看。"During the nine-day Games, Paralympic athletes have striven for excellence to realize their dreams in Beijing and Zhangjiakou," said Cai Qi, president of the Beijing organizing committee, at the closing ceremony. "The success of the Gamesspeaks volumes aboutthe power of solidarity and inclusiveness.北京冬奥组委主席蔡奇在闭幕式上致辞。他说：“追求卓越，圆梦北京和张家口，北京冬残奥会的顺利成功，充分彰显了团结、包容的力量。”"Let us continue to carry forward the Paralympic values of courage, determination, inspiration and equality, promote greater advancement of the well-being of people with disabilities, and work together for a brighter shared future."“我们将继续发扬‘勇气、决心、激励、平等'的残奥价值观，携手推动残疾人事业实现更大发展，一起走向美好的未来。”According to Zhao Sujing, the secretary-general of the Chinese delegation, behind the fast improvement of Team China's performance is the development of China's Paralympic winter sports and the better environment for people with disabilities in China.中国体育代表团秘书长赵素京表示，中国代表团成绩快速提升的背后，是中国残疾人冰雪运动的发展和为残障人士提供的良好环境。"We hope the great performance of the Chinese para athletes at the Beijing Winter Paralympics will encourage more people with disabilities to get out of their homes and embrace sports. And through sports, they can be better involved in our society," said Zhao.她说：“希望中国残疾人运动员在北京冬残奥会上获得的荣誉和骄傲，能够激励更多的残疾人走出家门，走进运动场，积极参与到体育运动中来，通过参与体育运动更好融入社会。”In addition, "we will further promote therehabilitation, education and employment of people with disabilities in our society who need to have more understanding, respect and care toward them", Zhao added.“同时，进一步推动我国残疾人康复、教育、就业等各项事业全面发展，促进全社会更加理解、尊重、关心、帮助残疾人。”The Beijing Winter Paralympics provided para athletes and all participants with smooth competition operations, top-class venues, a great barrier-free environment, warm living conditions at Paralympic villages, convenient transportation and comprehensive volunteer services, Beijing organizing committee officials said.北京奥组委的官员表示，北京冬残奥会为残疾人运动员和所有参与者提供了流畅的比赛、一流的场馆、良好的无障碍环境、温暖的残奥村生活条件，以及便捷的交通和全方位的志愿者服务。The great quality of the Beijing Winter Paralympics has earned positive feedback from the athletes, sportsfederationsand the International Paralympic Committee.北京冬残奥会的优质服务得到了运动员、体育协会和国际残奥委会的积极评价。Dutch snowboarder Chris Vos, who competed at the Zhangjiakou competition zone, was among those who were impressed by the passion of volunteers, the quality of the venues and the accessibility at the Beijing Games.荷兰单板滑雪运动员克里斯·沃斯曾在张家口赛区参加比赛，他对志愿者的热情、场馆的质量和北京残奥会的无障碍环境印象深刻。"All the volunteers and people help us here, and everybody is really nice. I would really love to come back here again and see more of China. I'm sure there will be a lot of games going on here in the future, because the facilities have been set up," said Vos.沃斯表示：“所有的志愿者都在这里帮助我们，每个人都很好。我真的很想再次回到这里，看看中国更多的地方。这里的设施已经建立起来了，我相信未来会有很多比赛在这里举行。”US para Alpine skier Patrick Halgren, who finished in 24th place in men's slalom standing competition, also said he had a great experience in Beijing.美国残奥高山滑雪滑雪运动员帕特里克·哈尔格伦在高山滑雪男子回转（站姿组）比赛中获得了24名，他也表示自己在北京的参赛体验极佳。"I couldn't even have imagined something that good in the venue, how all the locations and the roads get you everywhere. Thanks from the bottom of my heart, and it means so much. It's better than I imagined. I'm living my dream," said Halgren.他表示，“我都无法想象场馆里会有这么好的东西，去哪里都畅通无阻。我由衷地感谢你们，这真的很重要。这里比我想象中好得多，我好像活在梦里。”The venues, which will continue hosting sports events in the future and be open to the public, the barrier-free facilities in the venues, and the host cities' transportation systems are expected to be lasting legacies of the Beijing Winter Paralympics, benefiting the Chinese people in the future.未来，这些场馆将继续承办体育赛事并向公众开放，场馆内的无障碍设施以及城市的交通系统，将成为北京冬残奥会的永久遗产，造福于未来的中国人民。cauldron英 [ˈkɔ:ldrən]；美 [ˈkɔldrən]n. 火炬塔，大锅hallmark英[ˈhɔːlmɑːk]；美[ˈhɔːlmɑːrk]n.标志；特征；特点benchmark英 [ˈbentʃmɑːk]；美 [ˈbentʃmɑːrk]n. 基准；水准点；衡量尺度speak volumes about英 [spiːk 'vɒlju:mz əˈbaʊt]；美 [spiːk'vɒljumz əˈbaʊt]清楚表明；详尽说明；充分说明rehabilitation英 [ˌri:əˌbɪlɪ'teɪʃn]；美 [ˌrihəˌbɪlɪˈteʃən]n. 修复;复兴;复职;恢复名誉

Para cross-country skier Yang Hongqiong has been named as Team China's flag bearer for the closing ceremony of the Beijing Winter Paralympics.

A diplomatic boycott led by the US. Strict COVID-19 pandemic measures. And athletes caught in the middle of political fights between nations. The 2022 Winter Olympics has ended in Beijing, China, but the biggest headlines weren't about the games. American-born athletes with Chinese roots who competed for Team China found themselves at the center of a war of words between the two countries. So are the Games still about sports, or do they represent a geopolitical rivalry under the guise of sportsmanship?

She explains how the team has just returned to China, after playing in the Russian Women's Hockey League (13:56), how she's been putting her teammates through their paces despite being stuck in quarantine (15:07), how she copes with the pressure to overtrain (17:19), and what the past season has been like for her (18:38).Next, she describes how a walking tour in Saint Petersburg went awry (19:27), how she first got involved with the Chinese team (20:57), the team's stuttering progress after the loss of legendary coach Digit Murphy (22:41), how she didn't know she'd be eligible to play for China until November last year (24:27), and what exactly happened to finalize China's Olympic roster (25:08). Llanes also discusses the stringent testing and quarantine requirements she is currently undergoing (25:38) and reveals what the team is doing to prepare for their opponents at the Olympics (27:01), before giving her views on whether China can be a realistic medal threat (28:06).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we touch on the differences between speed skating and short track speed skating, as well as China's medal hopes in the short track events at the upcoming Winter Games.

On the show this week, a decision — finally — from the International Ice Hockey Federation: the Chinese men's team will be playing in the Olympic tournament (00:56). But they're facing the U.S. and Canada. Will the NHL All-Stars run up the score (2:13), and how are the Chinese players feeling about the prospect? Plus what's going on with the Team China squad, which is currently playing in Russia for the Kunlun Red Star team? (4:58) Meanwhile, one NHL player has already pulled out from the Olympics over concerns about COVID-related restrictions. Will others follow? (6:21) Elsewhere, the White House announces that there won't be an official U.S. delegation sent to the Olympics What impact, if any, will that have on the Games? (10:12)Chinese football is in dire straits right now. But how did we get here and what comes next? Haig and Mark talked to Nikki Wang, formerly with Deloitte China as head of sports business, where she advised the Chinese Super League; and to Tariq Panja from The New York Times (13:04).On the agenda: how Chinese soccer first got on the global football's radar, with stories of astronomical sums of money (17:08), the 20-something Englishman who seemingly popped up in most Chinese football deals (20:18), signs of progress in Chinese soccer, and parallels to soccer around the world (24:37), global superstars playing with vastly inferior Chinese teammates (28:17), commercial ramifications of signing big names (30:42), the relationship Chinese clubs have with their fans (32:47), whether anyone is still paying attention outside of China (35:13), Tariq's tales of coming to China during the boom years (37:56), Nikki's views from the inside of Chinese football (42:20), and why Chinese football fans are among the most resilient in the world (47:19).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we talk Remembrance Day, how the Senators are getting awfully close to needing to shut down to due to COVID. We also discuss how Team China might do against the NHL's best at the Olympics. Former National Team coach Dave King says China is in "way over their heads."

Burdus!!1!1 Volvemos con el legendario mano a mano, Beto y mendi, B&M, como quieran llamarnos. En este caso hacemos un poco de un *update* tocando los temas más picantes en los medios recientemente y un video viral ("jajaja sabela") sobre el cual la producción del mareo indagó data. Comenzamos el capítulo hablando del famoso "jajaja sabela" video en donde un grupo de amigos tiene una discusión muy divertida sobre qué contestar a un mensaje complicado de una chica, y en donde nosotros pudimos indagar qué era lo que había escrito la chica y el por qué de las respuestas discutidas. Luego tocamos el famoso tema "Wanda Gate", charlando acerca de Team China, Team Wanda, las historias que respaldan este conflicto, y damos nuestra perspectiva al respecto, de muchísima validez informática (?. Finalmente exploramos varios portales de internet con las noticias recientes, sobre las cuales estamos muuuy informados ya que estamos completamente actualizados con los medios. Na mentira, no sabemos básicamente nada y deriva en una charla muy graciosa al respecto de estas noticias y las pavadas que surgen a partir de las mismas. Esperemos que les guste, no olviden seguirnos en nuestro Instagram (@elmareo.podcast), en Twitch, en Spotify y suscribirse a nuestro canal de Youtube

The Guys are back after a week off to recharge a bit before the long haul of the season gets going and they touch on the little bit of hockey news that's out there. Hockey season is upon us as the Blackhawks social media was in full swing posting photos of the ice being painted ahead of the start of the 2021-2022 season. Speaking of getting ready for the season, Malcom Subban drops an absolutely amazing tribute to Tony Esposito on his mask for the season. Although the guys hope we don't see it in action this year. (2:25-5:02) The Chicago Blackhawks announce key dates for next years schedule that include celebrating Patrick Kanes 1k achievement, honoring former Hawks Andrew Shaw, Brent Seabrook, Niklas Hjalmarsson, and Pat Foley. The guys also discuss one very noticeable name not on the list in Corey Crawford and they ask if that's weird or not? (5:03-14:53) With Training Camp and preseason right around the corner the guys take a look at what some potential storylines the Hawks might have going into this upcoming season. The talk Jonathan Toews and if he's going to be good to go, What veterans might find themselves on the outside looking on and which younger players might be taking their place. A topic that has been huge on this show this off season is who will fill in the last two opening on defense, how will Marc-Andre Fleury and Kevin Lankinen split time in the net this upcoming season. The last big story line the guys talk about is how long of a leash does Coach Colliton have and will we see a quick firing if this team isn't performing right away? (14:55-49:48) Switching over to NHL Talk, Jesperi Kotkaniemi is Carolina bound after Montreal refuses to match the Canes offer sheet. Now the question is how the hell does his contract work for next year? The Islanders made a bunch of signings that felt like were already done back when free agency opened up and they also announced Zach Parise will be coming to the island. Buffalo makes a pair of deals and no they don't involve Jack Eichel. Ottawa Senators GM Pierre Dorion announces the rebuild in Ottawa is over and its time to win. The guys look at what type of contract Brady Tkachuck might sign. To wrap up NHL Talk the guys discuss the NHL going back to the Olympics and how badly we feel for Team China having to go against NHL Canada and NHL USA. Jarom also asks if this is going to be the most stacked Olympic ice hockey event ever? (51:00-01:14:32) The guys wrap up the show with the latest edition of Starting Line Ups, this week drafting the best players to play for Team USA in the Olympics.

Who the Chinese Weightlifting Federation choose to send to the Olympics is an exceedingly difficult question to answer. By going through the history and statistics of each athlete, I hope to have presented a reasonably accurate representation of the ongoing thought process.More Videos & Podcasts & Programminghttps://www.patreon.com/weightliftinghouseShop W|H USA - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopusa/Europe - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopeurope/All Weightlifting Newshttps://www.weightliftinghouse.comPodcasts | Interviews & Newshttps://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/weightlifting-house/id123113148100:00 - Intro01:02 - Who Is Eligible?02:44 - Top Men11:46 - Top Women20:18 - Top Picks20:54 - Outro

PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 1: Ken Matthews guest hosts. There's a coup going on in America. What's the state of your state? Networks have banned the F-word (fraud). The media doesn't have any power in tallying or certifying votes. Where are the right's poll watchers? Trump attracted young and minorities to GOP. Major Garrett gives people who want their votes counted a lecture, insult and threat. Programmer on manipulating voting source code. PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 2: Ken Matthews explains what he means by "stealing the election." Riots. Computer stuff and analysis proving fraudulent votes, but news is censoring and mocking it. Where are the GOP and these politicians with fancy websites? Why do you or don't you wear a mask? Biden's just mimicking Trump's successful plan for the coronavirus. PODCAST SUMMARY HOUR 3: Ken Matthews on the protections our founding fathers gave us to use in a moment like this against Obama, Biden, and Team China. Bernie Sanders would take the secretary of labor job. We're supposed to believe people who've been lying to us for decades? Ask our reps: Do you own any interest in that vote-counting company? News media ranges from funny to anger-inducing. Most teachers want to go back to work. Bill Gates. There's too much fraud, and we're not gonna let you steal our election. We have to step up.

In our 19th weekly episode of the first series of The Horse & Hound Podcast, we kick off with an exclusive interview featuring successful Chinese Olympic event rider Alex Hua Tian. Our magazine editor and podcast host Pippa Roome chats to Alex about how he got started in eventing, his surreal experience as the youngest event rider to contest an Olympics in Beijing, narrowly missing out on London 2012 before finishing 8th at the Rio Olympics, and looking ahead to Tokyo 2021 with Team China. Moving on to the week's top news stories, our news editor Eleanor Jones, senior news writer Lucy Elder and news writer Becky Murray join Pippa to discuss a recent high profile case of suspected horse feed contamination, why employers' liability insurance is essential and how new clean air plans could hit horsebox owners. We also welcome to the podcast for the first time vet Helen van Tuyll, who explains why blackthorn is such a worry for those who hunt. We hope you will find it useful.

Rich Husseiny is a Strength And Conditioning coach having worked with an array of athletes including Team GB snowboarding, Team China diving team & Fulham Football Club.Rich's journey as not only a coach but as a person are fascinating. His view on athletes as people and performers is something I was drawn to and in this episode we cover lots of ground around development of athletes as a whole person.

Why is the media covering this? We like to know how to better feed ourselves and make more money. No one cares on the trade war at the moment. But what is it that you’re missing? What news didn’t you hear? What is the news that they’re not sharing? Is our information safe? Who do you trust with your info? Team China or Team USA?
