Huang Zhihong took part in track and field training in his teens. 65438-0978 entered Zhejiang Amateur Sports School, began to practice javelin, then changed to discus, and finally shot put because of spinning dizziness. The first coach was Wang Shuiqi of Zhejiang Sports School. 1979, she joined the Zhejiang track and field team, and was later selected by the national team coach and trained in the national training team. At that time, she was just a chubby girl who was not very outstanding. After coach Chong was admitted to the hospital due to illness on 1983, her training was taken over by the current coach Kan Fulin. In recent years, her performance has improved rapidly: 198 1 year, her shot put performance is15.05m, 1982,15.50m, 1983, yes/.
1985, in the national track and field championship, Huang Zhihong won the second place with 18.0438+0 meters. 1986 In the 10th Asian Games, she won the gold medal in the shot put competition with the score of 17.5 1 m, and in the same year she won the third place with the score of 18.43 m in the Paris Athletics Invitational Tournament, reaching the international standards for athletes. This year, her best score is 18.
1987 In March, Huang Zhihong broke the national record with18.94m in the Beijing Winter Athletics Invitational Tournament, broke the 20m mark of shot put with 20.22m in the track and field competition of Beijing elite athletes in July, and won 1 19.5000 in the 6th National Games.
1988, Huang Zhihong finally broke the Asian record twice, won the championship with a good score of 2 1.28 m in Shijiazhuang track and field classic, and ranked fourth in the world women's shot put that year. But in the 24th Olympic Games in the same year, only19.82m won the eighth place. Getting this ranking was a great blow to her unfulfilled ambition at that time. She devoted herself to harder training.
1In March, 1989, she participated in the 2nd World Indoor Athletics Championships, once again competed with the world's top athletes, and won the runner-up with a score of 20.25m. In August of the same year, in a competition in Beijing, Huang Zhihong showed her great strength with a score of more than 2 1 m three times, and achieved 21. Later, she won the championship with a score of 20.56m at the 5th World University Games held in Duisburg, the former Federal Republic of Germany ... In September of the same year, at the 5th World Cup track and field competition held in Barcelona, she defeated many outstanding athletes in the world with a final throw of 20.73m, and won the championship again, becoming the first female athlete to win the gold medal in the three major world track and field events, which was also won by athletes from China and Asia in the history of the World Cup track and field competition. 1June 1990, she won the national track and field championship with a score of 2 1.52m, ranking second in the world that year.
After she became famous, she trained harder and harder. In a year's time, she trained in addition to the competition. At the Tokyo World Athletics Championships in 199 1, she lived up to expectations, beating the world record holder, Olympic champion and many world-class athletes with a score of 20.83m, winning the championship again, breaking the "zero" gold medal record in the World Athletics Championships not only for China, but also for Asia. 1991In the final of the international grand prix held in Barcelona, Spain on September 20th, she won the women's shot put championship with 20.06 meters, ranking first in the total score of the international grand prix that year.
Huang Zhihong, the queen of shot put, is the only athlete in the track and field history of China who won medals in the World Cup, World Championships and Olympic Games. It is rare for an athlete to achieve such success in his sports career. But for Huang Zhihong, she once had the opportunity to upgrade the title of "Triple Crown" to the great cause of "Triple Crown" that will go down in history forever. It's a pity that 1992 Barcelona in midsummer, Huang Zhihong failed to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the gap of 60 cm made her miss the title of "Triple Crown". Huang Zhihong is the best hope for China track and field team to win the gold medal in the 1992 Olympic Games. Just when everyone thought that she would win the first gold medal in the China Olympic Games and make history, she failed to play her own level and gave the title of "the first gold medal" to Chen, a female race walker. Huang Zhihong scored only 20.47 meters in hard throw, but her main competitor unexpectedly threw 265.438+0.06 meters. It is this 60 cm gap that makes Huang Zhihong miss the Olympic gold medal with regret, leaving a lifelong regret.
The failure of the Olympic Games did not make Huang Zhihong depressed. At the 4th World Championships in Stuttgart on 1993 and the 7th World Cup in London on 1997, Huang Zhihong once again proved himself to be the king in the field of women's shot put. In addition to creating brilliance again and again in track and field, "Yellow Smile" has also become a beautiful landscape, and her smile even makes her look deeper and puts more pressure on her opponents. Even if she loses, it is hard for Huang Zhihong to let people see her frustration and realize her strong spirit of being able to bear any setbacks and forge ahead forever.
1984, Huang Zhihong won the title of athlete. 1986, won the title of international sportsman. From 65438 to 0989, the Asian Athletics Coaches Association awarded her the title of the best female athlete in Asia in New Delhi, India. 1986 and 1987 were awarded "National Excellent Track and Field Athletes". 1989 was rated as one of the top ten athletes in China.
