China News Service, Beijing, April 6 (Reporter Hao Lingyu) On the 6th, the 2024 FINA Synchronized Swimming World Cup Beijing Station concluded its second competition day. After winning 3 gold medals and 1 silver on the first day, the Chinese team won 3 gold medals today in the women's single free choice, women's double technical free choice, and collective free choice, and currently tops the medal list with 6 gold medals and 1 silver.
Chinese player Xu Huiyan, who won the gold medal in the women's single technical free choice on the first day, participated in the women's single free free choice competition on the 6th. During the competition, Xu Huiyan used a set of moves that were completely different from the theme of the previous day, and finally won the championship.
After the game, Xu Huiyan went through a long period of equalization, and she was moved to tears when the scores were finally announced. Xu Huiyan said that in synchronized swimming, long equalization times generally mean there are problems with technical movements. In the end, the results met expectations and her emotions were finally released.
According to the competition plan, Xu Huiyan will partner with other players on the next competition day in the women's double free selection. Xu Huiyan looks forward to further training and improvement through this double event competition.
In the women's technical double technical finals, twin sisters Hua Lin Yanhan and Lin Yanjun, who were born in 2002, added another gold medal to the Chinese team with their outstanding performance. The Spanish team and the Slovak team ranked second and third respectively.

The collective free selection was the focus of the day. The Chinese team sent Chang Hao, Feng Yu, Wang Liuyi, Wang Qianyi and other main players to participate. During the competition, the Chinese girls vividly performed the abstract theme of gravity through tacit cooperation and tight movements, and finally defeated the Australian team to win the championship.
After the game, Chinese team coach He Xiaochu said that the players performed very well in this game. On the basis of the Doha World Swimming Championships, the players had a high degree of completion, which further improved the artistic expression of the entire set of movements. "Of course, this set of movements will continue to be adjusted. I hope we can perform better in the future Paris Olympics."
On the 7th, the Beijing Station of the Synchronized Swimming World Cup will enter the final competition day. On this competition day, the gold medals in the three events of women's free pairs, mixed pairs free selections, and collective skills will be determined. (over)
