My child, try hard!

Before the final match of the women's 10m air pistol event of shooter Trinh Thu Vinh at the 2024 Paris Olympics at 5:00 p.m. on July 28, from her hometown Thanh Hoa , her family, relatives, and neighbors were expecting Trinh Thu Vinh to win a medal.

Mr. Trinh Van Ba, father of shooter Trinh Thu Vinh, is happy that his daughter made it to the final round of the women's 10m air pistol at the Paris Olympics.

Mr. Trinh Van Ba (58 years old, residing in Quarter 1, Van Du Town, Thach Thanh District, Thanh Hoa; father of shooter Trinh Thu Vinh), said his family is looking forward to every minute to watch Thu Vinh compete at the Paris Olympics.

"My family was very happy when my child competed in the Paris Olympics, and yesterday he made it to the finals, so we were even happier. If he gets a medal this afternoon, we would be so happy," said Mr. Ba.

Unable to hide her joy, Ms. Le Thi Cuong (49 years old; Thu Vinh's mother) said: "In 8th grade, she hid from her parents to compete in athletics. Only when she was able to represent the district in the provincial competition did she tell her parents. Because at that time Vinh was weak and skinny compared to his friends, they didn't want him to compete in any races. But then he became so passionate that he became an athlete."

On the morning of July 28, Ms. Le Thi Cuong, mother of shooter Trinh Thu Vinh, still went to the garden to pick custard apples to sell as usual.

Mrs. Cuong also said that she was proud that her son had achieved excellent results to represent the country in the competition. And whether he won a medal or not, she was very happy because her son was among the few people competing in the world's biggest Olympics. Both grandparents were moved and wished their son good luck: "My son, your parents are proud of you. Keep trying. No matter what, your parents are very happy."

Shooter Trinh Thu Vinh's family background was very difficult. Vinh's parents left their hometown in Vinh Loc District (Thanh Hoa) to the northwestern mountainous region of Thach Thanh District to start a business by planting sugarcane for hire for others.

Shooter Trinh Thu Vinh started out as an athlete, training with the People's Police Sports Team since the age of 14. After 3 years of training without any results, Thu Vinh was transferred to try her hand at the shooting team. After 3 months of training, the coaches saw Thu Vinh's qualities, which were calmness, steadiness, and the ability to concentrate, and then received professional training.
