Olympic skaters receive prestigious Japanese honors
奧運滑冰選手獲頒日本殊榮
In April 2026, the Japanese government awarded the prestigious Medal with Purple Ribbon to figure skaters Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara.
在2026年4月，日本政府授予花式滑冰選手三浦璃來和木原龍一享有盛譽的紫綬褒章。
This recognition follows their historic achievement as the first Japanese pair to win an Olympic gold medal at the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics.
這項表彰是為了肯定他們作為首對贏得2026年米蘭-科爾蒂納冬季奧運花式滑冰金牌的日本組合，所取得的歷史性成就。
These national honors celebrate exceptional contributions to sports and the promotion of the national spirit.
這些國家榮譽旨在頌揚對體育運動及推廣民族精神做出傑出貢獻的人士。
The Medal with Purple Ribbon is granted to those who demonstrate excellence in various fields, including academics, culture, and athletics.
紫綬褒章授予在學術、文化、體育等各領域展現卓越成就者。
Japan’s history of honoring skaters is well-documented.
日本獎勵滑冰選手的歷史有案可稽。
For instance, the legendary skater Yuzuru Hanyu received the People’s Honor Award in 2018 for his back-to-back gold medals and his ability to inspire a nation.
例如，傳奇滑冰選手羽生結弦因其蟬聯奧運金牌的成就，以及鼓舞國人的能力，在2018年獲頒國民榮譽賞。
Through their success on the global stage, skaters like Miura, Kihara, and Hanyu have become symbols of excellence, representing the high standard of dedication that these prestigious government honors aim to highlight across Japanese society.
透過在全球舞台上的成功，像三浦、木原和羽生這樣的滑冰選手已成為卓越的象徵，代表著這些負有盛名的政府榮譽所欲在全日本社會中突顯的高標準奉獻精神。
