Characters experience of Feng Simin

She studied in Wintermill Preparatory School, and won the "Double Excellent Award in Learning Physical Education" last semester.

AJGA's 23rd place means that Feng Simin is qualified to participate in the highest-level youth competition in the United States and keep her ranking. A few years later, she can easily get golf scholarships from many famous universities in the United States. Father Feng's long-term plan for his daughter is to compete for the best female player of the year. The children who won this award later became famous LPGA masters, such as paula creamer and Morgan Plaetzer. It can be said that as long as we keep up, Feng Simin has stepped on the threshold of LPGA, and her success will surely attract more parents from China to send their children to the United States.

However, after the glory, parents who are eager for success may not know that their father Feng has gone through detours and lost his mind, which are actually the experiences of golf parents who have landed in the United States. Before going abroad, Feng owned his own computer company, and his daughter studied in the primary school attached to Peking University. He knows a little English, and basically he can only read but can't speak. Like most golf fathers, he discovered the child's talent, which changed the life of the family from now on.

Go out or not? When are you going out? Feng asked many people. The golf environment in America is better. As long as they play well, many universities are willing to give scholarships, and children can at least go to good universities in the United States. However, when a child 10 goes abroad, his parents must follow him. If he can't type, the child may even leave his mother tongue behind, which is also a great sacrifice for the whole family. However, after reasoning and personally visiting the headquarters in Florida, Feng made the decision to go out.

Less than a year later, Feng found that it might not be appropriate to let his daughter stay. Feng Simin studied English at IMG's language school, but at the same time, he went to many children in China. Children usually play together, and their English progress is slow. They have to translate to communicate with the coach. After many inspections, Feng felt that the coach of the team and the stadium environment were better. In June 2006, her daughter's coach left, and the Feng family simply moved to Orlando. My daughter studies in the morning and goes to the nearby stadium to learn the ball in the afternoon.

Looking back on his three and a half years in the United States, Feng felt a lot-"Children's performance fluctuated greatly during the training process, and it took years of tempering and mature thinking to stabilize. Her performance fluctuation will cause parents' emotional changes. " Especially those families who have shifted their life focus to their children's golf education. "After half a year of IMG training, we took our children to participate in the Youth World Cup. Two days later, Xiao Min was eliminated. She is in a bad mood, and neither are we. We wondered if the child was cut out for fun, and even thought of the worst result: another two years. If she can't play in front of children of the same age, then give up playing and let her study. "

In the past two years, not only Feng Simin worked hard, but also Feng Liguang and his wife encountered many obstacles. The most difficult issue is the visa. In the past, tourist visas were required to return to China regularly and were not allowed to live in the United States for a long time. Now, Feng simply opened a company in the United States, not for anything else, just to get a work visa and be with his daughter. On the golf course, he and his wife Feng even became sports psychologists. Yico Zeng, a wife from a sports family, is a professional handball player. The couple are scanning sports books in the bookstore. "For golf parents living abroad, this is very difficult. We are analyzing every setback in their children's growth. What's the problem, coach? Practice? Physical training or psychological training? Only the analysis and communication encouragement of two people can persist until now. "

It's not enough to insist, but open AJGA's website. A year ago, Feng Simin ranked 2 17. One year, she advanced to nearly 200. In the past year, she returned to China to participate in four professional competitions, which were promoted at the Binhai Open in Asia Tour and the Taihu Open in Europe Tour. Feng weighed her daughter's strength and felt that she should be able to enter the top five in the pure domestic women's competition.

For many golf parents, Feng has survived, but there are still too many worries in his eyes. "Mandy has lived in the United States for several years and has become cheerful and generous from her previous shyness and timidity. This is the bright side. But we are very concerned about her language. American schools do not emphasize words and grammar, which makes it difficult for foreign students with small vocabulary. Children's daily life and communication are normal, but there are some obstacles in understanding adults' words or characters. On the other hand, Xiao Min went abroad in the fifth grade. Although we can communicate with China through the Internet, the gradual decline of Chinese level also makes us very worried. "

In addition, the younger age makes Feng likely to face his daughter's choice of studying and changing careers in the future. "The main purpose of our going abroad is to let her play ball. In the future, she will have this ability. If her studies conflict with golf, we will definitely consider her sports career. But whether the vitality of active young players will be as long as Sorenstein, we also want to see it again. "

Feng still has time, and her daughter will not consider her career path until at least 20 10-her goal is to represent China in the Asian Games that year.

During this trip to South Korea, Feng Simin also had a friend: Yani Zeng.

This is the advantage of fighting a big battle. You can not only be in the same group as the Grand Slam champion, but also practice with the Grand Slam champion. On Tuesday, when Feng Simin hit the fifth hole in the practice match, Yani Zeng joined them, and they chatted happily all the way. Yani once told Feng Simin that in practice, we should try different ways of playing, instead of becoming complicated in one way, so as to make effective adjustments on the court.

If this kind of words were said by the coach or parents, Feng Simin might not be so useful, but from Yanizeng's mouth, Feng Simin accepted them all.

The first time she met Yani was in Hainan last October. The PGA Tour first went to China in Hainan West Coast Stadium. At that time, Feng Simin shot 78, 77 and 74, ranking 58th, while Yani once ranked second.

The Battle of Haikou was the first time that Yani returned to the mainland after winning the first Grand Slam McDonald's title, and it was also the first time that Feng Simin returned to China after going to Florida in June 5438 +2005 10. Each has its own wonderful things, but this is the first time they have had such a close conversation in Korea. In fact, speaking of it, Feng Simin and Yani were quite predestined friends. It's all about Annika Sorenstein.

Annika is most optimistic about Yani Zeng. Last year in Florida, annika bought Norman's old house, while Yani bought annika's house.

As for the fate between Feng Simin and annika, it also started last year. Her physical fitness coach was annika's special physical fitness coach before he retired, a German named Fowles. It's only 10 minutes' drive from my home in Orlando to Fosse's physical fitness school. If Feng Simin doesn't play games, he will go three or four times a week and practice for an hour at a time.

Many people praised Feng Simin for his hard work, strong strength and ability to resist the harsh training and competition environment. It is the result of long-term training that she can perform better in such bad weather on the second day of the Korean competition.

Feng Simin was born in April 1995. He began to learn golf at the age of 9. Now he is tall and strong. At present, the height 1.77 meters and weight 150 Jin are very good conditions for a golfer. So when Feng Simin appeared in Haikou PGA Tour last year, many people's eyes lit up.

Last year, people also saw annika's first official competition in China. A week after Hainan Station, Feng Simin and annika went to Suzhou Taihu Lake to compete. Annika won the championship that time, which was her last coronation before she retired in February this year. People still remember that Feng Simin and another teenager, Xin Wang, took photos with annika after the game.

This year 1 month, Feng Simin made annika remember her forever. At the American Youth Invitational Tournament hosted by annika himself, Feng Simin won the championship and won the Champions League from annika.

Such a magical fate, even Feng Simin himself can't believe it.

Yuan Tao, the mother of family member Feng Simin, said such a small detail: When she returned to the hotel from the stadium that day, Feng Simin asked Yuan Tao, "Mom, touch my face and tell me if I really won."

Yuan Tao is still happy and envious. She once said to her daughter, "Look, you won the championship in a world-class competition at such a young age, and your mother wouldn't have this kind of life."

Yuan Tao, a former member of Guangxi handball team, has never participated in the World Professional Baseball Series in her sports career. At most, she won glory for the province at the National Games. Her best performance in that provincial team was the third place in the national championship. So I have a national athlete. However, Feng Simin's grandfather is Yuan Zhixiang, a famous handball hall of fame, and is known as the "godfather" of handball in Guangxi.

Handball is a big ball and golf is a small ball, but the blood axils of sports are interlinked. The desire to win glory for our country is the same.

Feng Simin is now an overseas member of China Golf National Team, and her goal is clear. Next year, she will try her best to represent China in the Guangzhou Asian Games and strive for good results. Then strive to win glory for our country at the Olympic Games.

Feng Simin said that her role model is Li Ning. The scene where Li Ning lit the fire at the Beijing Olympic Games last year made her unforgettable. "I watched the opening ceremony at home in Beijing, and then I went to the Bird's Nest to watch the closing ceremony. I have a first impression of the Olympic Games. "
