北京时间8月8日消息,2016年里约奥运会跳水赛事揭开战幕,有着“梦之队”之称的中国队赢得开门红,吴敏霞/施廷懋在女子双人三米板比赛无悬念夺金,这一枚金牌让吴敏霞创造了多项历史。

在这次比赛前,吴敏霞已经有4枚奥运金牌,加上在里约的金牌,5金在手的吴敏霞成为中国历史上夺取奥运金牌最多的运动员,她和体操名将邹凯并列。除了5枚金牌外,吴敏霞在雅典奥运会拿到3米板银牌,北京奥运会拿到3米板铜牌,她的奥运奖牌数达到7枚,她一下子超越了郭晶晶、李宁、李小双、王义夫等名将,成为中国奥运历史上获得奖牌数最多的运动员。依靠里约的金牌,吴敏霞实现了对其师姐们(伏明霞、郭晶晶)的超越。

此前吴敏霞已在2004年、2008年和2012年连续三届奥运会拿到双人三米板冠军,加上里约的金牌,吴敏霞成为奥运历史上第一位在该项目四夺金牌的跳水运动员,她也是第一个拿到5枚奥运跳水金牌的运动员。4次双人三米板冠军,吴敏霞是与三个不同的搭档完成的,2004年和2008年她与郭晶晶搭档夺冠,2012年伦敦她与何姿合作夺冠,这一次则是与施廷懋携手夺冠。

 

能够连续参加四届奥运会,这本身就不是一件容易做到的事,更何况吴敏霞在这四届奥运会上都有金牌入账,这是一件更难做到的事。早在伦敦奥运夺冠时,就有传闻说吴敏霞会考虑退役,可她还是选择了坚持,尽管只是参加双人3米板,但她却如同中国跳水的一个定海神针,有她在场,双人三米板这块金牌就很难旁落。

里约是吴敏霞在奥运赛场的谢幕战,她也非常珍惜这次的比赛机会。在比赛中她异常专注,与施廷懋的配合非常默契,她们用无可争议的表现赢得冠军,得到全世界的掌声。对吴敏霞来说,这样的谢幕方式是最合适的,她用最完美的一种方式向自己从事并深爱的运动告别
