She is one of the five most beautiful athletes in the world basketball world. Her appearance is sometimes even more attractive than her skills. But in fact, she has won the championship of the 2010-2011 WCBA league, and also represents the Chinese Women's Basketball Championship, and helped the team win the 24th Asian Championship. She is a former member of the Chinese women's basketball team, Zhao Shuang .
I believe that fans who are familiar with the Chinese women's basketball team must be very familiar with Zhao Shuang's name. Zhao Shuang can be said to be the beauty ceiling of the domestic basketball world. Her appearance is outstanding, with a Hong Kong-style beauty. Her height of 1.88 meters makes her look heroic, so Zhao Shuang has also attracted a large number of fans who support her and love her. However, for Zhao Shuang, sometimes it is not a good thing for people to pay more attention to her appearance, because it is easy to ignore her real competitive level.
As a Northeast girl, Zhao Shuang has a straightforward and straightforward personality and is deeply loved by everyone. The reason why she came into contact with basketball is actually very simple, because her mother is a basketball coach, so her entertainment activities when she was a child were always related to basketball. Zhao Shuang inherited her mother's sports genes and could create a world of his own on the basketball court at a young age. However, because she is young, although she is better at playing basketball than ordinary people and has her own unique style, she does not know how to be flexible and flexible. This also led to her not being favored by her coach when she first embarked on the path of a professional basketball player.
But even so, Zhao Shuang never thought of giving up basketball. After repeated training, Zhao Shuang has become the desperate man in everyone's words and has also been named the "Hope Star" of the new generation of Chinese women's basketball team. Zhao Shuang did not show satisfaction or pride for the title given by the outside world, because in her heart, only achievements can prove her strength, and she will be down-to-earth step by step and become stronger.
In 2010, Zhao Shuang won the WCBA Finals championship with the team, and a few months later, her name appeared on the national team's training roster. The year after joining the national team, Zhao Shuang helped the team win the gold medal in the Asian Championships. After winning the championship, Zhao Shuang became more diligent and hardworking. She regarded the famous Chinese women's basketball player Miao Lijie as her idol. She wanted to become a top basketball player. But her next basketball journey was not as she wished.
Although Zhao Shuang was on of the 2012 London Olympics, her performance was not outstanding because she had serious injuries at that time, so it was not easy to appear at the Olympic Games. But people from the outside world pay more attention to the final result, so the title of "Star of Hope" on Zhao Shuang, whose condition is declining, has gradually been forgotten by people. Later, with the rise of more young players and the torture of injuries, Zhao Shuang gradually faded out of the national team lineup and officially announced her retirement in January 2022.
Zhao Shuang said on social media, "I once thought that when I retired, I would use a grand ceremony to end my national team career. I even thought about spending huge sums of money to buy a cart of firecrackers and go all the way, but at this time, I felt reluctant to leave..." Every word shows Zhao Shuang's nostalgia for the national team and professional basketball player. However, no matter what, I have to say goodbye to the past. Zhao Shuang is also very grateful for basketball that makes her the most wanted to be.
After retirement for more than half a year, Zhao Shuang announced the good news of her marriage on her personal social media. It is understood that Zhao Shuang's husband is about 1.9 meters tall, which is very consistent with the standard of choosing a partner that Zhao Shuang once said, "I hope his partner can be taller than me." He is not a person in the sports circle, but he has known Zhao Shuang for many years. Although some netizens think that his appearance is not very compatible with Zhao Shuang, he can see from Zhao Shuang's smile that she is very happy.
Today, Zhao Shuang has formed her own happy family and has also entered Beijing University of Architecture and became a teacher. Her former sports career and her days in the national team are Zhao Shuang's most precious memories, but now she has moved into a new life. I wish Zhao Shuang a better development in the days ahead!
