On February 6, 2022, Beijing time, the Beijing Winter Olympics continued, and the figure skating team competition began to compete for the women's singles short program, and China's Zhu Yi performed poorly, accidentally fell, ranking at the bottom among the 10 participants. However, because of the good results in pair skating, the Chinese team ranked 5th with 22 points in the team points and advanced to the free skating, which also created the best record in China's winter Olympic history in this project.
The team competition is divided into four events: men's singles, women's singles, pair skating and ice dance, and the top five teams in terms of total points advance to the final. In previous competitions, Chinese players played at a normal level, especially sui Wenjing/Han Cong in pair skating, who won 10 points for China. In the last Winter Olympics, China ranked sixth, and the final passed by, this time at the doorstep, the goal of the Chinese team is of course to create the best record in history.
The last item in the preliminary round was the women's singles short program, and the representative of China was the young player Zhu Yi. In the previous team selection competition, Zhu Yi stood out and qualified for the Winter Olympics, and she certainly cherished this hard-won opportunity to participate. However, Zhu Yi lacked experience in the competition, and after debuting, he appeared particularly nervous, his movements were not stretched enough, and the coordination of his body was not mastered well, and there were different degrees of mistakes.
The point is, Zhu Yi fell while jumping three weeks after the inner point ice and then the outer point ice three weeks jump, which made her only 47.03 points, which is a very low score, and finally ranked at the bottom of all 10 contestants. Zhu Yi was very disappointed after the game and did not give an interview, Chen Lu said that Zhu Yi should overcome his demons, overcome fear and pressure, and strive to play his best level.
Because the results of the women's singles short program were not ideal, it affected the overall score of the Chinese team, and finally got 22 points. After waiting, the total points came out, China got 22 points, just in the 5th place, the final promotion to free skating, which also created the best record of the Chinese team in the history of the Winter Olympics in this project. In the next competition, I hope that Chinese players will unload their baggage and strive to play at the best level to see if they can impact the podium.
In the women's singles competition, Camilla Vallieva played well, too strong, she scored a best score of 90.18 points, which can be said to be a technical pressure. The Russian Olympic Committee team advanced to the second stage with the first place in the preliminary round, followed by the United States, Japan and Canada.
