Chinese table tennis icon Ma Long received the Outstanding Sporting Career Award from the Association of National Olympic Committees (ANOC) on Wednesday, recognizing his exceptional achievements and contributions to the sport.
周三，中國乒乓球運動員馬龍獲得國家和地區奧林匹克委員會協會頒發的杰出運動生涯獎。這項榮譽是對馬龍杰出運動生涯的肯定。
"It's a great honor to receive this award and to be recognized by ANOC," Ma said. "This award represents not only my efforts but also those of the Chinese table tennis team. Four of my six Olympic gold medals came from the team event, which reflects our collective strength, and I am very grateful to my teammates."
“感謝國際奧協授予我這個獎項，我感到非常榮幸。今天站在這里，我不僅代表自己，也代表中國乒乓球隊。”馬龍全英文發表獲獎感言，我的6枚奧運金牌中，有4枚是團體金牌，這離不開團隊的支持和努力，因此我也非常感謝他們。
Ma, 36, has competed in four consecutive Olympic Games since London 2012. Over his Olympic career, he has won six gold medals, becoming China's most decorated Olympian.
今年36歲的馬龍從5歲開始學打乒乓球，2003年進入國家隊。從2012年倫敦奧運會首次獲得金牌至今，馬龍連續參加了4屆奧運會，共獲得6枚金牌，是獲得奧運金牌數最多的中國運動員。
In the 2016 Rio Olympics, he clinched his first singles gold, completing a career Grand Slam. Five years later in Tokyo, he defended his title, becoming the first male table tennis player to claim back-to-back Olympic singles titles and achieving the status of the first "double Grand Slam" champion in the sport.
2016年里約奧運會，馬龍拿到了乒乓球男單奧運會冠軍，實現了個人“大滿貫”（Grand Slam）。五年后的東京奧運會上，馬龍再次衛冕乒乓球男單冠軍，成為世界乒壇首位男子“雙圈大滿貫”（double Grand Slam）。
"The past 21 years of my career have been a long journey indeed, but I'm lucky because I found my passion — table tennis, at a young age and dreamed about competing on the Olympic stage one day. So I have always had this dream, been willing to give my all to this sport, and I've never ever given up," Ma said.
馬龍在領獎時表示：“過去21年的職業生涯，確實是一段漫長的旅程，但我很幸運，因為在我年輕的時候，就找到了對乒乓球的熱愛，并夢想著有一天在奧運舞臺上競爭。所以，我一直有這個夢想，一直愿意為這項運動付出我的一切，從來沒有放棄過。”
"Everyone knows that Chinese table tennis is the strongest in the world, and we have a joke that 'you would like to be the world champion first, and then have a chance to be a national champion.' So I think my biggest achievement is representing this team for 21 years."
“每個人都知道中國乒乓球是世界上最強的。我們有一句玩笑話，你可能會先成為世界冠軍，然后才有機會成為全國冠軍。”所以我認為我最大的成就是代表這支球隊21年。”
Ma added that he knows that table tennis is not yet a big sport in the world, "I hope that with my effort and the efforts of the entire table tennis family, it will grow bigger than ever."
馬龍表示，希望在自己以及世界乒乓球大家庭的共同努力下，乒乓運動能發展得更好，比以往任何時候都更加強大。
