At the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, Fu gained popularity and became a swimming icon nationwide.[8]
Fu won a bronze medal in the 100-meter backstroke by tying for third place with Canadian swimmer Kylie Masse. She finished in a national record time of 58.76. Throughout the Olympics, her cheerful interviews and goofy demeanor made her very popular.[9][10] Mark Dreyer, a Beijing-based sports writer, noted that Fu exemplified "a positive trend in Chinese sports whereby athletics was undergoing a transition away from "manufactured Olympic champions" from the state-run sports system who were effective at bringing home medals but had cardboard personalities and inspired little devotion among fans'.[11] Her series of facial expressions spread widely in the Internet, and her sayings such as "I've already spent my supernatural energy!"(Chinese: 我已使出了洪荒之力!)become very popular catchwords.[12][13]
A few days later, after her lackluster performance in the 4×100-meter medley relay where the team placed fourth, she told an interviewer that she was on her period; many commended her decision to speak about this, menstruation being considered a taboo topic in sports.[14][15]
2016 Asian Swimming Championships
At the 2016 Asian Swimming Championships in Tokyo, Fu won gold medals for the first time. She won two gold medals in the 50 m and 100 m backstroke and a silver medal in the 4 × 100 m medley relay.[16] Fu was very happy to show her medals on her Weibo.[17]
Personal life
