The so-called naturalized athletes, like naturalized athletes, refer to players who voluntarily acquire the nationality of other countries other than the nationality of birth, which is a bit like skilled immigrants, such as Kaman of German team, Gordon of British team, blache and Dorset of the Philippines.
On the surface, the phenomenon of "naturalized players" seems to be the individual behavior of individual players changing their nationality, but in fact, naturalization has a positive effect on sports. First of all, it can realize the athletes' self-worth, and the deeper significance is that it may also promote the development of backward countries' projects.
In order to promote the rapid development of sports, China is also vigorously promoting the naturalization policy of athletes, which has achieved remarkable results so far. For example, at the Beijing Olympics, there were dozens of naturalized athletes like Gu Ailing. Next, let me take stock of the performance of these naturalized athletes for you.
1. Gu Ailing (freestyle skier) was born in the United States on September 3, 2003. Although it is the first time for Gu Ailing to represent China in the Beijing Winter Olympics, her outstanding achievements and indomitable personality have long attracted the attention of Chinese people. China people have been calling for it before the Winter Olympics, and her performance at the Winter Olympics has completely ignited the enthusiasm of China people.
On February 8th, it was not until the last second that Gu Ailing chose1620 for the last jump of freestyle skiing women's platform-rejecting her mother's suggestion that 1440 should win the silver medal, which was undoubtedly a very challenging choice, because she had never even done it on snow or trampoline in previous training. But in order to compete for the gold medal, Gu Ailing chose this difficulty. As Gu Ailing's posture crossed an arc in the air and landed firmly, she succeeded. This is her first gold medal at the Winter Olympics.
In the final of freestyle skiing women's slope obstacle skills on February 15, Gu Ailing won the silver medal again with a score of 86.23, and handed in a perfect answer sheet for her first show of the Winter Olympics with a gold medal and a silver medal.
After winning one gold and one silver in the freestyle skiing women's platform and freestyle skiing women's slope obstacle skills, Gu Ailing completely ignited the enthusiasm of Chinese people for the spirit of doing their best, and many Chinese people regarded it as a spiritual idol at that moment.
Yi Zhu is similar to Gu Ailing, and Yi Zhu is a naturalized athlete born in the United States. The age difference between them is less than one year. But the difference is that Yi Zhu's first performance in the Winter Olympics was not as perfect as Gu Ailing's.
On June 5438+05, in the short program of women's single skating in figure skating, Zhu Yi's three-week jump after the first jump was degraded because of the lack of weeks, and she couldn't even catch the jump, but she successfully completed the other two jumps, making up for the two-week jump after the last jump and making up for the loss of basic points to some extent. In the end, she scored 53.44 points, ranking 27th.
Yi Zhu made a serious mistake in the short program of women's singles in the team competition last week. She scored only 47.03 points for three jumps, one empty jump and one falling ice. When interviewed after the game, she couldn't hide her frustration and once choked.
Although Yi Zhu and his compatriots are not very satisfied with the performance of this debut, it is not easy to stand on the field of the Winter Olympics and represent China. Besides, there is no pleasant journey in life, and this mistake is also paving the way for the next success. I believe Yi Zhu will bring us better performance.
3. Miller (ice hockey player) In this Winter Olympics, China sent the highest proportion of naturalized athletes. Only the men's ice hockey team has 15 naturalized athletes, and the women's ice hockey team has 13 naturalized athletes. Among them, Miller's winning goal caught her attention.
On February 6, Beijing Winter Olympics ushered in the third round of ice hockey competition, and the women's ice hockey competition continued to be fierce. At the Winter Olympics, a Chinese-Japanese confrontation was performed. In the previous games, the Japanese team has always occupied an unbeaten advantage, but this time, the home team China finally pulled back a city.
The girls of China Women's Ice Hockey Team were not discouraged when they fell behind 0-/kloc-0 in the first game, but caught up. In the third game, Miller scored a key goal and dragged the game into overtime. In overtime, Zhou Jia, the goalkeeper of China women's ice hockey team, played well and saved successfully in succession, but in the fourth round. Miller, a naturalized player of China women's ice hockey team, scored the winning goal, which ushered in two consecutive victories for China women's ice hockey team in this Winter Olympics and successfully entered the quarter-finals.
