During
podium training for National’s at the first ever National Youth Games,
Yao Jinnan was seen at the venue but did not participate with her fellow
teammates. Coach Wang told Sina Sports that Yao will not be
participating in National’s and it is likely that she will miss this
year’s World Championships.
A little
while ago, Yao Jinnan went to the United State’s of America for her
shoulder surgery, and currently she is in the postoperative
rehabilitation process, therefore, she did not register for National’s.
Her coach is optimistic about her recovery, and said that “it’s better than we expected.”
On whether
or not missing National’s will affect her chances at World’s, coach Wang
said, “In principle, we are ready to make her give up this year’s World
Championships, which would allow her to have to prepare for next year’s
Olympics with better overall health.”
For the rest
of his training team, coach Wang is preparing four girls towards this
year’s World Championship team selection process: Huang Huidan, Wang
Yan, Mao Yi, and Fan Yilin.
