The sports world was completely shocked by the sudden death of Zhang Zhije, a badminton playerA 17-year-old Chinese man died on Sunday after collapsing on the pitch during a match at the Asian youth tournament. The incident occurred in Indonesia and initially caused shock.
The incident occurred when the score was 11-11 in the first set. The Chinese player was quickly shown handing him the serve pen and then convulsing on the floor. The trainer approached him, already collapsed, and it took a while for the first aid services to arrive. Despite attempts to revive him, they were unable to do so and Zhang died of cardiac arrest.
The Chinese Badminton Federation has expressed its “deep sorrow” and condolences to the young athlete’s family. In this regard, it is worth saying that the images that have emerged are very powerful. Zhang started playing this sport when he was very young and made it to the national youth team in 2023. A year later he won the individual title in the Netherlands.
Out of the Olympic Games
Serbian player Novak Djokovic broke the silence and finally confirmed what everyone was waiting for after his injury in Roland Garros. The tennis player will compete this year in the Paris Olympics as reported by the Serbian Olympic Committee on Tuesday.
Djokovic is currently number three in the world and is a 24-time Grand Slam winner. She will therefore be participating in her fifth Olympic Games, her first having been in 2008, when she won the bronze medal.
The 37-year-old underwent knee surgery last month after being forced to withdraw from the French Open due to an injury suffered in the fourth round, which had put his chances of playing at Wimbledon and the Paris Games in doubt. Djokovic will look to end his title drought in 2024 after winning three of the four Grand Slams last year, as he chases an elusive Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games, which also features Spain’s Rafael Nadal.
