　　According to reports, Chijiang Rikako achieved a 25.77 second in the 50-meter butterfly at the Tokyo Metropolitan Open, equivalent to the eighth place in the 2019 World Championships.

　　Although the expectations of Chi Jiang for participating in the Tokyo Olympics are heating up, she only said: "As I said before, the goal has always been the 2024 Paris Olympics, and I will work hard for this."

　　Chijiang Rikako, 20 years old, is a super rising star in the Japanese swimming world and a well-deserved leader of the new generation.

She is the Japanese record holder for the 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle, 200m freestyle, 50m butterfly and 100m butterfly.

　　In 2016, 16-year-old Chijiang Rikako was selected for the Japanese national team.

In the FINA Short Course World Cup Tokyo competition that year, she successively set the women's 50-meter butterfly, 100-meter butterfly and 100-meter medley three world youth records.

　　At the 2018 Jakarta Asian Games, she won 6 gold and 2 silver alone, becoming the first female player in the history of the Asian Games to win the "Most Valuable Athlete" award.

　　However, in February 2019, the talented girl in swimming announced on her personal social media that she had been diagnosed with leukemia and would interrupt the game to receive treatment.

In February last year, Chijiang Lihuazi announced his victory over the illness and officially began to resume training.

After another year, Chi Jiang has completed her first championship after her comeback, and she will launch an impact on higher goals.
