He Was A Secret... But Not Anymore

谢思埸 (Xiè Sīyì), 21, breaks out in tears of joy after winning gold in the men’s 3m springboard final at the 17th FINA World Aquatics Championships in Duna Aréna in Budapest, Hungary on Thursday, July 21, 2017. He was once specialised in 10m platform, but due to a serious injury in 2012, he finally turned to springboard. Photo: sports.sina.com.cn.

And the holy voice of CCTV-5, the only & one Olympic Goddess 吴敏霞 (Wú Mǐnxiá), had nothing but words of praise for 谢思埸 (Xiè Sīyì)’s astonishing performance, showing only a bit of surprise at the tears of her fellow country boy, who she described as usually shy and introvert, tending to keep his emotions deeply hidden in his own heart, regardless of whether he wins or loses. So far. Not anymore. Screengrab courtesy of CCTV-5.
