Pham Thi Hue competed persistently to win a ticket to the quarterfinals of the women's heavyweight single sculls event.
In the qualifying round of the heavy single sculls event that took place yesterday (July 27), Pham Thi Hue only ranked fourth with a time of 8 minutes 03 seconds 84. To be present in the quarterfinals, the rower from Quang Binh had to be in the top 2 of her round in the play-off round that took place today. In this round, Pham Thi Hue's opponents did not make it into the top 3 of the qualifying round the day before. Facing opponents that were not too strong, Pham Thi Hue completed her goal. The rower born in 1990 quickly surpassed the leading group and continuously chased Joanie Delgaco of the Philippines. Pham Thi Hue maintained stability and she finished the 2,000m with a time of 8 minutes 0 seconds 97, ranking second in the round, behind Joanie Delgado (7 minutes 55 seconds). With this result, Pham Thi Hue has won a ticket to the quarterfinals of the women's heavyweight single sculls event at the 2024 Paris Olympics, scheduled to take place at 2:55 p.m. on July 29 (Vietnam time). Thus, in her first time competing at the Olympics, Pham Thi Hue has won the right to enter the quarterfinals of the single sculls event, a very good achievement for the rower from Quang Binh. What is encouraging for Pham Thi Hue is that she is 1 of 2 rowers from Southeast Asia to win the right to enter the quarterfinals of this event. |
Pham Thi Hue celebrates her achievements at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
For Pham Thi Hue - a veteran rower of the Vietnamese Rowing team, winning the Olympic ticket three times is a great effort. However, the previous two times she missed the appointment due to the regulations of the organizing committee, but this time, the rower born in 1990 continued to excel in winning the ticket and officially competing for the first time at the Olympics. Before participating in the 2024 Paris Olympics, experts said that the opportunity for Vietnamese rowing at the Olympics was very fragile because there was still a large gap between us and the world. Therefore, achieving this achievement was a remarkable and valuable effort of Pham Thi Hue for Vietnamese sports. At the age of 34, Pham Thi Hue has been and is a shining example for young athletes to follow because of her relentless efforts and overcoming herself. The mother of two grown daughters still strives to practice every day and makes people forget the burden of age in terms of performance. Pham Thi Hue and the remaining 15 Vietnamese athletes participating in the 2024 Paris Olympics have all tried their best in training and competing. Their efforts are not just a day or two but a process, so no matter what the results in Paris this time, they still deserve to receive praise and encouragement.Nhandan.vn
