【Today's Winter Olympics Highlights: Opening Ceremony China's Double Flag Bearers Both Played Gao Tingyu Chong Jin】

On February 12, Beijing time, the Beijing Winter Olympics will produce 6 gold medals in 6 events, namely: 1 gold for snowboarding, 1 gold for biathlon, 1 gold for steel frame snowmobiles, 1 gold for speed skating, 1 gold for ski jumping, and 1 gold for cross-country skiing. Zhao Dan and Gao Tingyu, the two opening flag bearers of the Chinese delegation to the Beijing Winter Olympics, will play on this day.

Gao Tingyu, one of the "twin stars" of Chinese speed skating, made a breakthrough in Chinese speed skating four years ago in Pyeongchang, South Korea, when he won the bronze medal in the men's 500 meters with a time of 34.65 seconds, becoming the first Chinese male athlete to win a medal in speed skating at the Winter Olympics. In this home battle, Gao Tingyu strives for medals and retains the suspense of rushing gold.

The speed skating women's team chased the quarter-finals will also be contested, as the "younger" event in the speed skating arena of the Winter Olympics, the Chinese women's team won the fifth place in the first competition at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics four years ago. In this season's World Cup in the United States, the Chinese team composed of Han Mei, Li Qishi and Ahanal Adak won the third place and reached the podium for the first time. Whether they can have a good performance in the Winter Olympic Games is worth looking forward to.

Zhao Dan, born in 2002, was selected for the China Steel Frame Bobsleigh National Team in October 2018 and is the youngest athlete in the team. In the women's race of the Steel Frame Bobsleigh Intercontinental Cup in Innsbruck, Austria, held on December 3, 2021, Zhao Dan won the championship with a time of 1:48.25. At the recently concluded 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics steel frame snowmobile national team selection competition, Zhao Dan successfully obtained the winter Olympic ticket with the first overall score. In the first two rounds of the competition, Zhao Dan was temporarily ranked fourth and Li Yuxi was in tenth place, expecting them to create better results in the third and fourth rounds!

The figure skating event will feature an ice dance rhythm dance competition, and Chinese players Wang Shiyue/Liu Xinyu are looking forward to playing normally and joining the subsequent free dance competition. In the Beijing cycle, the two have made obvious progress, and they have won the fourth place in the Grand Prix Italy, which is worth paying attention to. The tournament will start at 19:00.

The Zhangjiakou National Biathlon Center will compete for the men's 10 km sprint, with four Chinese runners Cheng Fangming, Yan Xingyuan, Zhang Chunyu and Zhu Xiaoyu competing. Among them, Cheng Fangming's performance is noteworthy, and at the 2021-2022 World Cup Oberhof in Germany, he finished 12th among 108 players, which is the best result achieved by the men's sprint Chinese player in the World Cup so far this season.

In men's hockey, Canada will play a heavyweight showdown with the United States at 12:10, which will be the first meeting between the two sides since the semi-finals of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. At the time, Canada won 1-0; the Chinese men's ice hockey team would play against Germany.

In the curling competition, the Chinese men's curling team will play against Italy, and the Chinese women's curling team will play against Sweden.

The Snowboard Obstacle Course Chase Mixed Team Relay made its Winter Olympic debut, with each team consisting of 1 male and 1 female team, and even more excitingly, the number of players competing in each match rose to 8.
