(Beijing Winter Olympics) Comprehensive news: Gu Ailing advanced to Russia’s “Massetry” to win gold and silver medals in women’s singles in figure skating
China News Service, Beijing, February 17 (Reporter Wang Zumin) The much-loved and anticipated Chinese teenager Gu Ailing did not disappoint. In the freestyle skiing women’s U-shaped field skills qualification competition held on the 17th, she advanced strongly with the first place. . In the figure skating arena, the Russian “Matryoshka”, as expected, swept the women’s singles gold and silver medals.
U-shaped venue qualifying Gu Ailing “fault” the first Chinese team 3 people into the final
The freestyle skiing women’s U-shaped field skills qualifying competition kicked off on the morning of the 17th. The Chinese “post-00” women’s team led by Gu Ailing played together. In the end, Gu Ailing, Zhang Kexin and Li Fanghui won the first, fifth and third respectively. Seven advanced, and another Chinese teenager Wu Meng ranked 16th and missed the final of the top 12.
It was a more perfect start than people had expected before the game. Although the U-shaped venue is the strongest among the 3 events in this Winter Olympics, the scores in the qualifying rounds are not carried into the finals, and the promotion is a success. However, the 18-year-old teenager “couldn’t hide his strength”, not only advanced with the first place, but also contracted the only two high scores of more than 90 points in the audience.
Although the Chinese team has 4 players participating this time, except for Gu Ailing, the other players have not performed well in the past. At the PyeongChang Winter Olympics, only Zhang Kexin of the Chinese team entered the final, and finally won the ninth place. But in this qualifying match, Zhang Kexin and Li Fanghui not only entered the finals, but also achieved quite good rankings. The Chinese team has shown strong overall strength in this project.
The freestyle skiing women’s U-shaped field skills final will be held on the morning of the 18th. I hope that as Gu Ailing said before the competition, she will be on the podium for the third time, and I hope that there will be other Chinese players on this podium.
However, the subsequent freestyle skiing men’s U-shaped field skills qualifier was somewhat regrettable. The Chinese team also had 4 players (Mao Bingqiang, Sun Jingbo, Wang Haizhuo and He Binghan), but they were all wiped out, and no one entered the final. The highest ranked Mao Bingqiang also only ranked 14th.
The advantages of small items are no longer brilliant, and the model workers of the Winter Olympics have achieved the best results
On the 17th, the women’s 1000m final was held at the speed skating arena. In this small event, which used to be the advantage of China’s speed skating, the Chinese team regressed significantly. The three contestants Li Qishi, Yin Qi and Jin Jingzhu ranked 14th, 15th and 22nd respectively. Japan’s Miho Takagi won the championship by breaking the Olympic record.
At the 1992 Winter Olympics, Ye Qiaobo won 2 silver medals, achieving a breakthrough of zero medals in the Winter Olympics for the Chinese delegation. One of the silver medals came from the women’s 1000m speed skating. At the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, Zhang Hong won the first speed skating Winter Olympics gold medal for the Chinese team, which also came from the women’s 1000 meters.
The alpine skiing women’s all-around competition ended on the 17th after the downhill and slalom competitions, and the Swiss players took the gold and silver medals. As the only Asian face in this event, Chinese player Kong Fanying successfully finished the competition and won the 15th place, which is also the best result of the Winter Olympics achieved by the Chinese team in this event.
At this Winter Olympics, 25-year-old Kong Fanying is one of the athletes with the most participating events in the Chinese delegation. At present, she has participated in the downhill, slalom, giant slalom, super giant slalom, and all-around 5 individual contests and successfully completed the competition. On the 19th, she will also participate in the final mixed team competition of alpine skiing with her teammates.
Russian “Matryoshka” swept the women’s singles gold and silver medals in figure skating, China’s men’s and women’s curling team missed the semifinals
When Valieva slid down the field with tears in her eyes, the figure skating women’s singles competition of this Winter Olympics was all over. Russia’s “Matryoshka” ranks among the top two as expected, with Shcherbakova winning gold and Trusova winning silver.
Unexpectedly, 15-year-old Valieva, the biggest favorite to win the short program, played abnormally in the free skating on the evening of the 17th, made many mistakes, ranked fourth, missed the medal, and succeeded in Japan. Contestant Sakamoto Hanaori won a bronze medal under the siege of the Russian “matryoshka”.
As the U.S. men’s curling team defeated the Danish team 7-5 and took the last train of the semi-finals, the men’s curling round-robin competition of this Winter Olympics has settled. Sweden competed with Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom in the semi-finals. The Chinese team ranked fifth with 4 wins and 5 losses, and missed the semi-finals.
The women’s curling round robin also ended on the 17th. The Chinese women’s curling team, which also had 4 wins and 5 losses, ranked seventh, and the Swiss, Swedish, British and Japanese teams advanced to the semi-finals.
The U.S.-Canada summit in women’s ice hockey kicked off on the 17th, which is also a fixed “play” in the finals of seven consecutive Winter Olympics since women’s ice hockey entered the Winter Olympics in 1998. In the end, the Canadian team defeated the defending champion U.S. team 3:2 and won the Winter Olympics gold medal for the fifth time. The two-time Winter Olympics champion U.S. team received their fifth Winter Olympics silver medal. (over)Return to Sohu, see more
