As the Paralympics wrapped up this weekend, Paris 2024 chief Tony Estanguet took a moment to celebrate Team China's stellar performance and reflect on the enduring legacy of global sporting events. In an interview with China Media Group, he emphasized how the Games unite the world—one medal, one cheer, and one viral moment at a time.
🏆 \"Bravo to your athletes!\" Estanguet exclaimed, using the French word to applaud Chinese Olympians and Paralympians. \"Their passion and skill inspired millions. But beyond medals, the real victory lies in how sports ignite shared joy across borders.\"
🌐 The Paris 2024 leader highlighted the Games' \"intangible legacy\" of fostering connection: \"When the world tunes in, we’re reminded that hope, respect, and teamwork transcend politics. That energy—*that’s* what fuels future generations to pick up a racket, a ball, or a dream.\"
With Paris preparing to host next year’s event, Estanguet’s message resonates: In a divided world, sports remain the ultimate collab. 💥🤝
