Chinese long jump star Wang Jianan is chasing redemption at the #Paris2024 Olympics after a rollercoaster journey – from making history as Asia’s first world champion in 2022 to a fifth-place finish at last year’s Budapest World Championships. 🏃♂️💨
In an exclusive chat with China Media Group, Wang opened up about his mindset: \"Every failure teaches me. After Tokyo [2021], I focused on my own mistakes instead of blaming others.\" 🧠✨
The 27-year-old athlete admits the pressure is real: \"People expect more now. But track and field doesn’t guarantee anything – that’s why I prepare harder.\" His game plan? 💥 Maximize strength training 💪 and nail consistent jumps during prelims to save energy for the final showdown.
Wang’s philosophy? \"Control what I can – my focus, my technique. Let the results follow.\" With this zen approach 🧘♂️ and years of experience, could Paris be his golden moment? The sandpit awaits! 🏟️
