On February 7, the medal table of the third matchday of the Winter Olympics was updated, and Norway, which had been ranked first for the first two days, had fallen to 6th place, and Sweden rose to the first place with three gold medals, leading the way. The Chinese team rose from the 9th place yesterday to the 4th place, surpassing the Japanese team and ranking first at the Asian level. The Russian-Austrian team is in second place with 2 gold, 3 silver and 2 bronze results, the Netherlands is third, and germany is fifth.
Today for the Chinese team to win the first silver medal is the "little bolt" Su Yiming, who won the silver medal in the final of the men's slope steeplechase skills in the snowboarding men's slope obstacle course, relying on the outstanding performance of the second round, and won a high score of 88.70 points. This is also the best result in the history of the Chinese team in this project, Su Yiming, who is not yet 18 years old, has created his own history, he competed in the Winter Olympics for the first time, he won the runner-up in his own sub-event, and he also promised to challenge the high difficulty and impact the gold medal in the big jumping event.
It is worth mentioning that after the end of the game, the Canadian referee's decision also caused controversy, and was questioned to give Su Yiming a pressure score, resulting in Su Yiming jumping perfectly out of the highest difficulty of 1800, but still second place. However, Su Yiming said that he would not deliberately calculate the score, and playing his own strength was the most important, and the emotional intelligence was very high.
In the men's 1000m final, China's Ren Ziwei, Li Wenlong and Wu Dajing played in the final, against the Hungarian Liu brothers Liu Shaolin and Liu Shaoang, although Liu Shaolin was the first to collide with the line in 1 minute 26.74 seconds, but he had a foul action and was shown a yellow card. Ren Ziwei of the Chinese team won the gold medal with a time of 1 minute 26 seconds 78 seconds, Li Wenlong won the silver medal with a time of 1 minute 29 seconds 93 seconds, both of them completed the breakthrough, and the Chinese team won 1 gold and 1 silver.
The high-profile Wu Dajing won the fourth place and did not qualify for the podium. It is worth mentioning that in the first shot, Wu Dajing was once in the ranks of the title race, but because Li Wenlong's ice knife was broken, the risk factors stopped the game. After starting again, Wu Dajing's physical fitness was also significantly affected, and finally won the fourth place in 1 minute 42.937 seconds, which was not able to help the Chinese team achieve the goal of winning the gold, silver and bronze medals, which was somewhat regrettable.
In other events, Gu Ailing competed in the freestyle ski women's big jump qualifier in the morning, and made a major mistake in the second round, falling to 16th place at one point, endangering the situation of reaching the final, she played perfectly in the third round, scoring 72.25 points, with a total score of 161.25 points, and advanced to the final. Gu Ailing, who will play in the final tomorrow morning, will launch an attack on his first gold in the Winter Olympics.
