Ning Zetao was born in a military family in Henan Province. He entered the stadium to learn swimming since he was a child, and became a provincial athlete at the age of1/kloc-0. In 2007, he won many awards in national competitions, was selected for the navy sports team, and became the darling of national coach Ye Jin. Before attending the Jinan National Games, he had been engaged in medley, and later he had to change to short-distance freestyle because of a knee injury.
This means starting all over again. In order to enhance physical fitness, coach Ye Jin increased the daily training volume from 6 km to 9 km, and sometimes even reached1.5000 km. Ning Zetao, who was in adolescence at that time, couldn't understand, complained constantly and stopped seriously completing the training. This made Ye Jin furious and gave him a good scolding. Ye Jin told him that professional athletes not only need superhuman strength and talent, but also need to be diligent and constantly challenge themselves. If they can't persist in suffering, they might as well quit.
This is a blow to Ning Zetao. Since then, he has been as meticulous about the training plan as before. However, athletes will inevitably get hurt. For example, his knee was seriously injured, and his picky eaters caused his stomach to be bad.
Picky eaters made Ning Zetao suffer a great loss. 20 1 1 year, Ning Zetao 18 years old, already an excellent swimmer. However, in the Wuhan National Swimming Championships, he was found to have taken stimulants and was banned for one year. Later, the investigation found that it was because he ate ham sausage at night. From then on, Ning Zetao never ate casually again.
From 20 13 to 20 14, Ning Zetao made great achievements in swimming competitions, which opened the way to winning the championship and broke many Asian records and military sports records. The most brilliant time was in Incheon Asian Games. In the 100 meter freestyle, he ran 47.70 seconds, becoming the first yellow man to swim in 48 seconds. Everyone affectionately called him "Liu Xiang on the Water".
It was 20 15 that made Ning Zetao truly popular all over the country. Won the World Swimming Championships 100 meter freestyle final, became the first yellow race to enter the top eight, and then won the men's 50 meter freestyle. At that time, he was praised all around, and people praised him as the most handsome male athlete in swimming. The entertainment circle also opened the door for him, and he participated in many business activities.
Ning Zetao, who was criticized for repatriation by name, was expelled from the national team when Ning Zetao was confident that he would continue to forge ahead in swimming. Things should start from 20 14. At that time, with the consent of the swimming center, he signed an endorsement contract with Elaine muxi and paid part of the endorsement fee to the swimming center according to the regulations. Soon after, the new leader of the swimming center signed a collective contract with Mengniu Dairy. The advertising revenue of the swimming center is the leader's decision, and athletes can only fulfill the contract.
But Mengniu and Yili are competitors in the industry, so the leaders asked Ning Zetao to cancel the contract with Yili and apologize publicly, but Ning Zetao refused. The contradiction between the leader and Ning Zetao intensified, and his sports career was affected. In 20 16, Ning Zetao participated in the Foshan Swimming Championships, and suddenly received a notice from the swimming center to let him take part in the 200-meter freestyle relay race instead, which was obviously deliberately difficult. Later, when training at the Rio Olympic Games, Ning Zetao was told to stop training and could not participate in the Rio Olympic Games.
The reason given by the swimming center is that "Ning Zetao spoke privately, contradicted the leader, threatened to stop training and retire". In desperation, Ning Zetao returned to China. Only to find that his meal card can't be used after degaussing. An athlete can't eat out, he can only borrow his teammate's meal card. Later, he was informed to move out of the athlete's apartment within three days and return to the navy for standby. In other words, the national team fired him.
At this time, Ning Zetao was in a miserable situation, and even Ye Jin, the coach who had been taking him, was "missing". But he insisted on training and participated in the Rio Olympic Games. Unfortunately, the training didn't keep up and the results were average. Then he achieved a lot of good results in the swimming competitions of 20 17 and 20 18, but the national team still did not recall him. In 20 19, Ning Zetao was 26 years old and announced his retirement. Other countries offered him olive branches, but he refused them one by one because he wanted to change his nationality.
What's the status quo Many people who don't know the truth speculate that Ning Zetao wants to make money in the entertainment circle, but time has proved his choice, and he didn't appear in the entertainment circle. Although he couldn't continue swimming, he still wanted to be an athlete, so he found another way to transform into a golfer and went abroad for training at his own expense many times.
There is no age limit for golf. It was also revealed that Ning Zetao was a "golfer who was delayed by swimming" because of his extraordinary talent since he officially practiced in 2020. Of course, he kept a low profile.
Now, Ning Zetao officially announced his comeback in sports, participated in golf for the first time, and scored 14 over par, ranking 38th. Although my grades are not very good, I have just become a monk halfway and my future is uncertain! In his lifetime, it is even possible to see him participate in the Olympic Games.
