Beijing, February 10 (Xinhua) -- The figure skating arena of the Beijing Winter Olympics on the 10th attracted much attention, and Japanese star Yu Yusuke fell to the ground while challenging Axel's four-way jump in free skating, ending his third Winter Olympics with a fourth place in the men's single skating. China's Jin Boyang's free skating record set a personal best of the season, and finally won the ninth place. The championship went to American Player Chen Wei.
As the short show ranked eighth, Yu Yu was the 17th to appear on the day, and with the music of "Heaven and Earth" sounding, his first jump was to challenge the unprecedented Axel to jump around. It took off and spun around, but unfortunately due to the lack of weeks, it fell on the ice and fell. Since then, his posterior inner ring has also made mistakes in the circumference of the ring. For Yu sheng, who aspires to win the three consecutive winter Olympic championships, the difficulty of winning the championship has increased sharply, and the initiative has been handed over to the opponent.

However, Yu sheng's performance after the knot was not greatly affected, and his remaining five jumps were completed lightly and ethereally. As the music style gradually became sad, the scene was quiet, and it was not until the end of the show that the audience erupted into warm applause again.
The music stopped, and Yusei yushin stretched out his arms and leaned back, a gesture that remained for a long time. He then bowed deeply to the referee and the audience, a smile on his face. On the way out, Yu yushin slid gracefully to the end of the field, and then bowed again to the ice, bent down to touch the ice, and then touched his eyes.
Yu Yu's free skate scored 188.06 points, with a total score of 283.21 points, temporarily ranking first among the 17 players who have appeared. His "first place" remained until the last three contestants appeared, which were also the top three in the 8-day short program competition.

In the end, Yumasa Habu's teammate, 18-year-old minor Minoru Yumasa, won the silver medal with a total score of 310.05 points, the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic runner-up Uno Masama won the bronze medal with 293.00 points, and Yusei Yushin ranked fourth and missed the podium. American Chen Wei won the championship with a total score of 332.60 points.
China's Jin Boyang made his 14th appearance on the day, and his performance at the Winter Olympics can be described as gradually getting better. Of all seven jumps, the first six were done cleanly and beautifully, with only the last three-week jump of the rear inner point falling to the ice on both feet. In the end, Jin Boyang scored a season-high 179.45 points in the free skating, ranking ninth with a total score of 270.43 points.

Jin Boyang first raised his arms and shouted after the game, and then covered his face on the ice and cried, which is already the impression that the "Tianzong" who is always happy in this Winter Olympics has once again burst into tears at the ice rink.
After the game, Jin Boyang said that he was very satisfied with his performance today, which felt a bit incredible. "Skating to the last minute, I felt that all four years of hard work had been worth it. It was the people of the motherland that gave me strength and faith, the motherland that created the best training conditions for us under the epidemic, and gave me the best memories of the Winter Olympics in my life. Jin Boyang said emotionally.
