Wang Nan, an athlete from Qingyuan county, Lishui, Zhejiang province, will take part in the 2024 Paris Olympics, which are set to kick off on July 26.

Wang's qualification for the 2024 Paris Olympics was solidified at the 2023 Canoe Sprint World Championships. Together with her teammates Li Dongyin, Yin Mengdie, and Sun Yuewen, Wang proudly represented China, securing a commendable 4th place finish in the Women's Kayak Four 500m A Final.

Born in Qingyuan in September 2000, Wang's affinity for sports, especially water sports, blossomed early in her life.

Joining the provincial canoeing team in July 2014, Wang's standout performance led her to claim a national championship in 2015, eventually propelling her to the national canoeing team in 2019. She is also the first female Olympian in the history of Qingyuan.

The 19th Hangzhou Asian Games also witnessed Wang's exceptional talent. In the Women's Kayak Double 500m Final, Wang closely cooperated with her partner Yin Mengdie, clinching the gold medal with an impressive time of 1 min 49.944 sec.
