After that, Ye Shiwen encountered physical development and injury problems, stayed away from international competitions for a while, and even missed the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games.

But Ye Shiwen never gave up. In the 200-meter breaststroke competition of the National Swimming Championships in May, she won the championship with a time of 2:22.44 (personal best). Talking about the Hangzhou Asian Games, Ye Shiwen made no secret of his goal of winning the championship: the Asian Games is a big competition held in front of his home, and he will enjoy the feeling of home games very much. accept.

Can the teenager become famous in one battle?
