(Beijing Winter Olympics) Event Prospect
China News Agency, Beijing, February 18 (Reporter Wang Zumin) The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics are coming to an end.
On the 19th, Sui Wenjing/Han Cong will attack the gold medal in figure skating pair skating, and Guo Dan, China's first "winter and summer amphibious" athlete, will once again attack her Winter Olympics medal.
Sui Wenjing/Han Cong wants to make up for the regret four years ago
The figure skating pair skating competition will produce gold medals on the 19th. The Chinese combination Sui Wenjing/Han Cong, Peng Cheng/Jin Yang will continue to fight for China's honor in the free skating event.
In the short program contest held on the evening of the 18th, 5 pairs of Chinese and Russian groups swept the top five.
Among them, Sui Wenjing/Han Cong broke the short program world record created by them in this Winter Olympics team competition with 84.41 points, ranking first.
Another Chinese pair, Peng Cheng/Jin Yang, ranked fifth, and the three Russian pairs ranked 2-4.
In the PyeongChang Winter Olympics figure skating pair skating competition, Sui Wenjing/Han Cong, who were affected by injuries, missed the gold medal by 0.43 points, leaving deep regrets.
More than a year after they both underwent surgery and bid farewell to the stadium, the golden pair will return to the stadium in 2021 and climb to the top, having won 3 international championships this season.
The figure skating pair skating of this Winter Olympics is mainly the competition between China and Russia. Among them, Mishna/Galiamov, who ranked third in the short program on the 18th, are the new champions of last year's World Championships. He also set a new world record for free skating and total points at the European Championships last month. These two records were previously held by Sui Wenjing/Han Cong.
Amphibious players fight against Aoning Zhongyan again in winter and strive to leave no regrets
The National Speed Skating Hall "Ice Ribbon" will hold the men's and women's collective starting finals on the 19th, which is also the final battle of speed skating at this Winter Olympics.
Mass departure is a new project of the last Winter Olympics.
Four years ago, two Chinese women won the fifth and tenth respectively, and no men's team made it to the final.
At this Winter Olympics, Guo Dan, the tenth place in the previous session, and teammate Li Qishi will start the women's collective start. Guo Dan, who is considered to be China's first amphibious athlete in winter and summer sports, will hit the medals in her second Winter Olympics.
The 31-year-old Guo Dan is a Grand Slam winner in the roller skating world. In 2015, he switched to speed skating in the cross-border selection and became an amphibious athlete in summer roller skating and winter speed skating.
In 2018, she participated in the Asian Games in Jakarta, won a silver medal in roller skating, and became the flag bearer of the closing ceremony of the Chinese delegation.
This season, Guo Dan won the fourth place in the World Cup in the women's collective starting event, and ranked third in the world in Olympic points.
Ning Zhongyan and Xu Fu will join hands to fight the men and set off collectively.
Ning Zhongyan, who finished seventh and fifth in the men's 1,500m and 1,000m speed skating, said that in the last game, he should bring out his technical and tactical level and try not to leave any regrets for his first Winter Olympics.
The "model worker" on the snow wants to achieve good results, the Swedish team will defend the dominance of men's curling
In this Winter Olympics, the Chinese alpine ski team achieved a historic breakthrough in full coverage of 11 events (5 men, 5 women and 1 mixed team). Becoming the "model worker" of the Chinese delegation, all of them have multiple roles.
Among them, 25-year-old Kong Fanying achieved the goal of Chinese athletes participating in and finishing all the individual alpine skiing events of the Winter Olympics in the first 5 individual events. She won the 15th place in the women's all-around, creating all the events of the Chinese alpine skiing Winter Olympics. The best result in the competition.
Xu Mingfu and Zhang Yangming also achieved historic breakthroughs in the two speed events of men's downhill and super giant slalom for the Chinese team.
In the mixed team competition of alpine skiing on the 19th, these "model workers" on the snow will fight side by side and strive to achieve better results for the Chinese team.
The women's double snowmobile will end after the third and fourth rounds. Chinese players Huai Mingming and Ying Qing will continue to compete.
In the women's single snowmobile event, the two placed sixth and ninth respectively.
Men's curling will have a gold medal match on the 19th, with Sweden, the runner-up of the last Winter Olympics, facing the British team.
The Swedish team has dominated men's curling in recent years and has won three consecutive championships at the World Championships.
Britain, which is on the rise, knocked out defending champions the United States in the semi-finals, but to claim the gold medal, I'm afraid we'll have to ask Sweden if they agree.
