The Olympics with the most gold medals was London 2012 with five gold medals, followed by Barcelona with four.

In fact, our country has won 15 gold medals is not much, the number of gold medals produced in a single Olympic Games swimming is about 35, since my country participated in the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984, has participated in 10 Olympic Games, the total number of gold medals produced by swimming is about 350. We only won 15 of them, which is about four percent of the total.

Objectively speaking, swimming is still a weak sport in our country in the world, but our level is still first-class in Asia. In recent years, the development of swimming in China has been very rapid, especially the increase in various swimming competitions held across the country, the level of athletes is also increasing year by year, the training of young athletes has been significantly strengthened, and many talented athletes who are only 15 or 6 years old have been discovered. Of the four athletes in this year's women's 4 200m freestyle relay, except for Zhang Yufei, the other three athletes are all around 20 years old and have good strength in the freestyle event.

Although many very talented children have been found at present, how to maintain the competitive state of these children, not be affected by growth and development, and prolong their careers, is a relatively big problem we are facing now. Ye Shiwen won two gold medals at the 2012 London Olympics at the age of 16, but since then, due to the impact of growth and other problems, his competitive form has declined rapidly, and he has not been able to go to the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Ye Shiwen is only 26 years old this year, which is the best period for an athlete at this age, both mentally and physically, but the premature overdraft of talent has also led to today's situation.

Guiding these young athletes more reasonably, not only psychologically, but also in terms of training and competition intensity, and how to cope with the changes brought about by growth and development, are all topics that need to be studied in the future.
