At the age of 51, a Turkish uncle shot with one hand in his pocket and won the silver medal, wearing only optical glasses and sleeping earplugs!
In the shooting competition of the 2024 Paris Olympics, there is a unique player who has attracted the attention of the world. He is Uncle Dikeqi from Turkey.
Dikeqi, a 51-year-old legendary figure with gray hair, dressed in loose sportswear, one hand in his pocket, the other hand firmly holding the gun, no eye mask, no goggles, only wearing sleeping earplugs, appeared in people's vision in an extremely casual manner.
Looking back on his past, Dikeqi was born on January 1, 1973. He studied at the Faculty of Physical Training and Education of Gazi University and obtained a master's degree from Selcuk University. His hobby is dancing.
In 2001, Dikeqi started his shooting competition journey. Starting from the Beijing Olympics, he participated in the Olympics for four consecutive times. Although he failed to enter the finals in the previous four sessions, he never gave up. You know, he was once a Turkish officer, and it was not until he was 35 that he had his first Olympic opportunity.
In the mixed team 10-meter air pistol final of the Paris Olympics shooting event, De Keqi worked hand in hand with Tarhan, a girl who is nearly 30 years younger than him. Tarhan said frankly: "I feel that my cooperation with him is perfect. We may be more like a father and daughter. He is a legend in the field of Turkish shooting. I trust him and he trusts me."
It is this trust and tacit understanding that made them shine in the arena and finally won the silver medal. De Keqi only wore a pair of ordinary optical glasses and sleeping earplugs in the competition, and he participated in the competition so casually. His casualness and confidence amazed the world.
