FAN YE
Fan Ye (born October 23, 1986 in Baoding, Hebei, China) is a Chinese gymnast who is coached by Liu
Guicheng and He Hua in Beijing. She admires fellow Chinese gymnast Liu Xuan and Russian gymnast
Svetlana Khorkina for the longevity of their involvement in the sport.
Fan Ye is best known for her work on the balance beam. Her biggest accomplishment in gymnastics is winning the 2003
World Balance Beam Title. Fan Ye earned a 9.812 for that gold medal performance and has the distinction of having the
highest scoring routine at an international elite competition in the 2001–2004 quad. Fan had disappointing results
at the 2005 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships, but that same year, she won the most prestigious competition in China,
the Chinese National Games. There she delivered a solid and beautiful beam routine with even more difficulty than the
one she used to become World Champion in 2003.
