“Regardless of the result, I am very happy to be able to play a unique experience. When you lose, people keep applauding, that is priceless. I am very grateful,” said Tania Zeng.
Tania Zeng expressed her joy after her debut at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and, despite the defeat in her debut, declared herself happy to be at the sporting event defending the colors of Chile.
“It’s very exciting. Before going out on the court I would sit and stand, I didn’t know what to do; I was very anxious. Seeing myself on this stage I don’t know how to calm down, I was very excited before going in. I am proud to represent Chile and to be Chilean,” the athlete told Chilevisión.
Aunt Tania, as she is known in our country, confided that “my coach told me to stay calm and that it was just another game, and not to think too much. When I entered I felt my children and my husband… I didn’t think much, everything was very exciting with the people screaming.”
“Regardless of the result, I am very happy to be able to play a unique experience. “When you lose, people keep applauding, that’s priceless. I’m very grateful,” said Tania Zeng.
Already focused on her debut in Paris 2024, the national athlete pointed out the virtues of her rival, stating that “I know that she played at holding me back so that I would get tired, that was the idea. When she could, she killed me, that is her game. Today my attack did not come out much.”
Asked if will be able to be present at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, Tania Zeng said: “You can promise, but I will play as long as my body allows me, I always say that. You have to fight.” If I’m not at a high level, I’ll play Masters, but I’ll always be playing because that makes me happy. It’s my life.”
