On February 5, Beijing time, after witnessing the grandeur of yesterday's opening ceremony, today's Winter Olympics ushered in the first official competition day of competition, and today a total of 6 gold medals were produced, and 5 countries shared this honor. Let's take a look at the latest gold medal list of the Winter Olympics after the end of the first match day!
At the top of the gold medal table is Norway, the traditional powerhouse of the Winter Olympics. Their two gold medals today were both made in the snow event. In the first women's doubles chase, Norway's Johaiug has maintained a leading position in the group since the start of the race, and later in the race, she began to expand her lead, and finally crossed the finish line first, with a time of 44 minutes 13 seconds 7. It was also her first individual gold medal after participating in several Olympic events.
Norway's second gold medal also came from the snow event, in the cross-country skiing 4x6 km mixed relay competition, Norway gave full play to the strength of their team to finally win the gold medal in this event. With the entry of these two gold medals, it successfully helped Norway to temporarily top the gold medal table at the end of the first matchday.
Second in the gold table is slovenia, which won the gold medal on the women's ski jump individual standard. The competition has been very fierce since the first round, and the first few players can be said to be immortal fights, and everyone is making very wonderful moves and performances. In the end, Bogatayi, who played better in the final round, successfully won this precious gold medal with a total score of 239 points, which was also the first gold medal produced on the stage of "Snow Ruyi". There were also two athletes from China who participated in this competition, but the two were still very different from the top masters, and they were not able to enter the finals in the end.
In third place is the Chinese team, which played well in the final of the relay mixed team in the short track speed skating competition tonight and successfully won the first gold medal of the Chinese delegation. Five Chinese players: Wu Dajing, Ren Ziwei, Fan Kexin, Qu Chunyu and Zhang Yuting, all showed their personal strength and excellent team cooperation in the final three competitions, successfully helping China win the gold medal. If you see the live broadcast of the audience should be very clear, the production of this gold medal can be said to be ups and downs, the Chinese team encountered a foul in the semi-final, thrilling to enter the final final competition. Fortunately, in the final, four Chinese players withstood the pressure and finally overwhelmed the other three teams to successfully win this precious gold medal and help the Chinese team rank third in the gold medal list.
Tied for third place with China are the Dutch team, who have shown great dominance in the speed skating competition. In the women's 3,000 meters of speed skating, Irini Shaoten made her last appearance, showing a kingly demeanor, and from the first lap onwards, she continued to accelerate, and finally won the gold medal in this event and broke the Olympic record that had been dusty for 20 years. The Dutch team's status in speed skating is similar to that of Chinese table tennis, and it is a well-deserved dream team. After that, they are still the absolute favorites for the rest of the speed skating events to win the championship.
Another team tied for third place was Sweden, the gold medal from the men's snow skill competition. Varberg
Scored 83.23 points in the final to help Sweden win its first gold medal. Japan's Yukima Horishima was originally a big favorite to win the championship, but in the end he was not able to beat the Swedish youngster to get a bronze medal.
It is worth mentioning that as a traditional power of short track speed skating, the South Korean team in today's short track speed skating competition, originally had the opportunity to compete with the Chinese team for the gold medal in the mixed relay, but unfortunately in the first round of competition, the South Korean team made a serious mistake in the corner, the players directly fell out of the track, resulting in them not even being able to enter the semi-finals, and finally they did not get any results on the first race day.
