In February, the dynamic incentive plan won the women's 10-meter platform single jump championship at the World Championships, allowing Quan Hongchan to fill an important gap in her sports career, and now she is only one step away from the Grand Slam of the project, standing on the same starting line as the previous leader Chen Yuxi. At present, Quan Hongchan is only missing the World Cup (Finals) women's 10-meter platform single jump championship, and Chen Yuxi's only blank spot is the Olympic women's 10-meter platform single jump championship. However, strictly speaking, Quan Hongchan's victory in the World Championships allowed her to successfully overtake in the corner, and she is currently half a position ahead of Chen Yuxi.
Half a position ahead, how do you say that? The author is not pretentious, according to the current situation, Quan Hongchan may be able to achieve the dream of a Grand Slam before Chen Yuxi.
After the World Championships in Doha, the International Diving Championships will enter the World Cup season. Like last year, this year's World Cup also adopts a series system, including 2 sub-tournaments and 1 finals, the most important finals of the 3 tournaments will be held in Xi'an, China from April 19 to 21, according to the relevant regulations of the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China, only the champion of the finals of the World Cup with sub-stations can be recognized as the world champion, so once Quan Hongchan wins the women's single jump championship in the World Cup finals held in Xi'an two months later, she will achieve the grand slam of the project.
Chen Yuxi is also one step away from a Grand Slam, but she will have to wait until the Paris Olympics in July and August to have a chance to challenge for a Grand Slam. Therefore, theoretically, Quan Hongchan is closer to the Grand Slam.
Of course, all this is hypothetical, and the key to deciding who comes first and who comes first is whether or not they can get the gold as they wish. Different from previous diving superstars, Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi are not only opponents, but also partners, they are also top masters of double jumping. Chen Yuxi has won the double jump championship in the three major events of the Olympic Games, the World Championships and the World Cup, and Quan Hongchan is only one Olympic gold medal away from the double jump.
The author believes that the best result is: two months later, the World Cup Finals and the Paris Olympics, Quan Hongchan and Chen Yuxi both filled the last gap in their respective single jumps as they wished, and at the same time, they also reached the top of the double jump in the Olympic Games.
