Sun Yang the Excited Much got his Gold Medal in Swimming

Indeed, the way that he absolutely smashed the competition was very impressive. I think the amount of endurnace you have to have to swim nearly a mile is enormous, and his performance exhibited that. I compare this to the 400 meter Individual Medley where Michael Phelps said that it's one of the toughest races to swim in. And then I consider that the 1,500 meters is almost 4 times as long! Sun Yang is likely to factor in to many medal races in the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro as well, considering that he's only 21 years of age right now. I get the feeling that as good as he has been this Olympics, if he trains as hard as he did, he could do even better in 2016. China has a great group of young swimmers, and Sun Yang is definitely one of them.

Yes, athletes make mistake like everyone else, the pressure to win medal is great for this young rising star swimmer from China name Sun Yang, he is facing tremedous pressure from his country to perform well and get a gold after last Olympic in China where he broke the world record on 1,500 freestyle at very young age, he is the first Chinese endurance swimmer in the history of swimming in Olympic to win Gold medal and broke the record, he became a sensation in China since then among his country men and women. I agree he deserve the gold without a doubt, he had trained hard and long for it, at such young age, he has a bright future ahead of him in future Olympic, he probably is going to stay few more years before he retire from his swimming career like M. Phelp after he grab more gold medals in the future. It is really cool to see him going back and forth in the pool for this long distance match, it definitely require plenty of stamina for a person to be able to do that.
