伤痛未愈夺冠未果：申雪赵宏博访谈

　　这对老搭档都灵冬奥会上只获得铜牌。但教练与何振梁都盛赞这对虽然没有夺冠的选手：脚上的伤还没有完全康复，他们精神可嘉，他们也是真正的英雄，也是胜利者……

World champion Zhao Hongbo overcame his Achilles tendon injury to take the pairs bronze medal with partner Shen Xue Tuesday morning.

"We did our best," said the 32-year-old Zhao after the competition. "I haven't thought about my retirement or whether we would compete in the world championships. Now, what I want to do is to give my poor tendon a break."

The pair had missed most of the 2005- 2006 season after Zhao Hongbo suffered a broken Achilles tendon last August. They finished fifth after the short program last Sunday morning.

On Tuesday morning, they produced a triple toeloop and double toeloop in the program to Madame Butterfly, followed by graceful triple twist and nice throw triple loop. They also nailed a double axel and a fluent pair combination spin and backward outside death spiral.

"I am very happy and very satisfied. We just had two months to prepare for the Olympics due to injury. We did everything we could, " said Shen. "The injury hasn't fully recovered. Being here to skate makes me very happy," said Zhao.

"Zhao is the real winner. I admire the pair no matter the result," Chinese figure skating coach Yao Bin said. "They are the Chinese heroes. I am happy for their performance and the result is not the most important," said China's IOC member He Zhenliang.
