The Chinese swimmers won another gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze

[Global Times reporter Li Jiayin] The Chinese team has another gold medal in the account! At the World Short Course Swimming Championships in Abu Dhabi on the 20th, China's Tang Qianting won the gold medal in the women's 100m breaststroke and once again set a new Asian record. In the women's 200m medley final, Yu Yiting, born in 2005, won the silver medal in 2:04.48, a result that broke the world youth record. The Chinese team also won the bronze medal in the women's 4×200m freestyle relay event.

In the diving exhibition match of the day, Quan Hongchan and teammates Wang Han, Li Zheng and Lian Junjie helped the Chinese team to finish third with 384.20 points. Since the competition is held in open waters, the diving exhibition competition is more like a "sea jumping" experience. Wang Han said, "The sea will feel very dark, and I want to swim upstream as soon as I finish jumping." Even so, Quan Hongchan, who "jumped into the sea" for the first time, still staged the "splash disappearance technique", and she was surrounded by foreign media after the game. In an exclusive interview with FINA President Mussalam, Quan Hongchan still showed childishness: "Although it is a little scary, it still has to jump!" ”

Affected by the injury, Tokyo Olympic champion Wang Shun withdrew from the men's 400m individual medley competition on the 20th, and Japan's Seto Dai also achieved the fifth consecutive championship of the project. It is worth noting that British swimmer Litchfield announced that he tested positive for the new crown after he and Wang Shun participated in the 400-meter freestyle preliminaries and the 200-meter medley preliminaries.

In other events, the Russian Swimming Association tied with the United States in the men's 4×50m medley relay in 1:30.51. Brazilian veteran Santos, 41, is defending the men's 50m butterfly, becoming the first athlete to win a medal at the FINA World Championships in his over 40s.
