This is also the fourth gold medal of the Chinese delegation at the Winter Olympics.
After the game, Gao Tingyu said that the bronze medal at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics four years ago had become a gold medal today, and he "did what he said".
Talking about his record-breaking time of 34.32 seconds, Gao Tingyu said that due to a leg strain yesterday, today was not his best result. For his gold medal to break the so-called "flag bearer curse", Gao Tingyu said that there is no magic spell, "the upper slide is finished."
