在速滑團(tuán)體追逐賽中,比賽用時(shí)是由第三名也就是最后一名運(yùn)動(dòng)員的過線時(shí)間決定的。通常情況下,領(lǐng)滑選手控制節(jié)奏并頂著氣壓,另外兩名隊(duì)員則跟隨在其身后的氣流中滑行。隊(duì)員們還可以相互配合,例如從后面推速度稍慢的隊(duì)友。
But in their quarterfinal heat, it seemed Kim and Park weren't putting much effort into helping Noh keep pace and stay in the pack.
但在四分之一決賽中,金寶凜和樸志友似乎并沒有對盧善英提供多少幫助,讓她保持隊(duì)形。
Some South Koreans believe Kim and Park were trying to humiliate Noh because there was nothing to be gained by crossing first.
一些韓國人認(rèn)為,金、樸是想羞辱盧善英,因?yàn)樗齻兟氏韧ㄟ^終點(diǎn)沒有任何意義。
"It was regretful, since it's the time of the last skater that counts. If our last skater had come in a bit earlier we might have made the semifinals. But it's finished," Kim said after the race.
她在賽后表示:“有些遺憾,因?yàn)閳F(tuán)體賽最后一名選手的用時(shí)才是關(guān)鍵。如果我們最后的選手能夠再快點(diǎn)或許還可以進(jìn)半決賽。但比賽已經(jīng)結(jié)束了。”
As the public anger grew, Kim appeared in a news conference with her coach on Tuesday and tearfully offered her "sincere apology" and said she didn't realize Noh was that far off until it was too late.
由于公眾的憤怒愈演愈烈,金寶凜與其教練20日召開了新聞發(fā)布會(huì),她眼淚汪汪的表示“真誠的道歉”,并稱當(dāng)自己意識到盧善英落后那么遠(yuǎn)時(shí)已經(jīng)太晚了。
"It's clearly a disgrace to our national image that these individuals of bad character are representing this country at the Olympics," the petition says.
請?jiān)笗蠈懙溃?ldquo;讓這些品行不端的個(gè)人在奧運(yùn)會(huì)上代表韓國,這么做顯然是在貶低韓國的國家形象。”
The petition also calls for an investigation into what it describes as "various corruption and irregularities" at the Korea Skating Union, the national skating body. The union has come under criticism for many years for alleged factionalism and nepotism in selecting athletes to compete for the Olympics.
該請?jiān)笗€要求對其所謂的韓國冰上聯(lián)盟的“各種腐敗和違規(guī)行為”進(jìn)行調(diào)查。近年來,韓國冰聯(lián)被指在奧運(yùn)選手的選拔上存在派系主義和裙帶關(guān)系,因而一直飽受批評。
There was no immediate comment by the union.
韓國冰聯(lián)沒有立即發(fā)表評論。
Both Kim and Park are from the Korea National Sports University, whose athletes and alumni have been at the center of factional disputes in the country's super-competitive speedskating scene.
金寶凜和樸志友均來自國立韓國體育大學(xué),該校學(xué)生和校友已經(jīng)成為競爭極其激烈的韓國速滑界的派系斗爭中心。
Skaters from other schools have previously complained that athletes with ties to the university are favored in domestic competitions to pick athletes for the Olympics and other international events. That's believed to be particularly true in short-track speedskating where multiple athletes can work together — jostling for position, blocking and ceding — to improve the chance that a certain athlete wins.
其他學(xué)校的滑冰選手曾不滿地指出,在選拔奧運(yùn)會(huì)及其他國際賽事運(yùn)動(dòng)員的國內(nèi)賽事上,與國立韓國體育大學(xué)有關(guān)系的運(yùn)動(dòng)員更有優(yōu)勢。這一點(diǎn)在短道速滑項(xiàng)目上被認(rèn)為更加明顯,在這項(xiàng)賽事中,多名運(yùn)動(dòng)員可以通過搶位、阻擋、讓位等合作幫助某一位運(yùn)動(dòng)員提高獲勝幾率。
Ahead of the Olympics, Noh reportedly complained that she wasn't getting much time to train with Kim and Park, who were practicing separately at the university. 據(jù)稱,平昌奧運(yùn)會(huì)之前盧善英曾抱怨,金、樸二人在國立韓國體育大學(xué)單獨(dú)練習(xí),她沒有太多機(jī)會(huì)和她們一起訓(xùn)練。
On Wednesday night, Noh skated with Kim and Park again in a two-team race to determine seventh place. As the stadium's announcer called out their names, the crowd quietly acknowledged Kim and Park, but saved a thunderous cheer for Noh.
21日晚,盧善英與金寶凜、樸志友為決定第七名歸屬而再次一起與另一支隊(duì)伍較量。當(dāng)體育館內(nèi)的播音員念出她們的名字時(shí),觀眾對金寶凜、樸志友無動(dòng)于衷,但給予了盧善英雷鳴般的歡呼聲。
The Koreans lost to Poland and finished eighth.
韓國隊(duì)最終輸給波蘭隊(duì),獲得第八名。
