American rifle star Matthew Emmons has a great record, but he is well-known to the Chinese because his last shot at the 2004 Athens Olympics missed the target and gave the gold medal to China's Jia Zhanbo . At the 2008 Beijing Olympics, what once again shocked the world was that Emmons once again had a big lead and only shot 4.4 rings in the last shot, giving the gold medal to another Chinese player Qiu Jian. . However, Emmons, who was frustrated on the court, found love off the court. After missing the target in 2004, the famous Czech shooter Katarina came to comfort him. After that, the two deepened their relationship and got married, becoming a famous sharpshooter couple in the international shooting world. Husband of Katrina Emmons, American shooter, shooting genius, uncrowned king, tragic hero. Jia Zhanbo in 2004, Qiu Jian after 2008, the same Chinese, the same Emmons, the same Olympic events! When everyone thinks it is a sure win. But when he fired the last shot, Emmons gave up his Olympic gold medal. God gave him extraordinary talents and extraordinary strength, so he is God's favorite. However, God forgot to give him another thing called luck, so he was God's abandoned child. I remember that he was the champion of the Sydney Olympics, but in Athens in 2004, with a huge advantage of nearly 3 rings ahead of his opponent, his last shot unexpectedly missed the target! You gave up the gold medal to a Chinese Jia Zhanbo. At that time, you took the initiative to go over and congratulate Jia Zhanbo. To be honest, I was quite happy at the time! After all, it was us Chinese who finally won the championship! Americans didn't take it! However, I felt that he was very pitiful at the time! But God is not so cruel! It was at this Olympic Games that he met his beautiful wife! After the game, he used alcohol to anesthetize himself, and a beautiful woman walked into his world. This is his current wife-Katrina. It was she who used her own strength to make him return to the playing field! It is now Beijing in 2008. His wife won her first gold medal in the 2008 Olympic Games with a beautiful game. Originally, I thought it would be smooth sailing for him, but who would have thought that history would repeat itself again. Also with an advantage of nearly 4 rings ahead of the opponent, he once again hit 4.4 rings that was almost off target, and was once again defeated by the Chinese players. Another Chinese, with his stable performance, took the gold medal back from him! (It’s not appropriate to use “rob” now either). He once again sent blessings to his opponent with a smile! And this time, I didn't laugh, I wasn't happy! But it can’t be said to be sad, because after all, the Chinese won the championship! After all, you are an American. I must say that it was precisely because of his smile that I decided to write an article about him! In fact, we all know that it is harder for athletes to laugh than to cry at this time! It was this smile that made the whole world remember him! I would like to praise him with the words I used to describe Nemov in Athens in 2004: "Although he lost the game, he won the world!" This time, it was Katarina again. After the game, he cried when he saw him hugging his wife tightly~~~Katrina comforted him with her strength. When interviewed by reporters after the game, Catalina said seriously to reporters: "Emmons will not retire!" At this time, she had made up her mind to use her strength to "save" him! I remember after the game, Emmons said: Having Katerina by my side is the most important thing. Whether I win or lose, she will always be there for me. Two Olympic Games, two missed gold medals, two defeats To the Chinese! How dramatic! But he won love twice. With love, everything is possible. He still has a chance. Four years later in London, he still has a chance! Maybe, then he can give the gold medal as a gift to little Emmons! Best wishes to them! He is God's favorite, but he has not been abandoned by God~~ He is a hero. God just made a little joke with him. Although he did not win the gold medal, the whole world knew him and he won the respect of the world. Emmons, you are the best athlete, you can do it.
