On February 16, Beijing time, the Beijing Winter Olympics will determine eight gold medals, which are distributed in freestyle skiing, alpine skiing, biathlon, cross-country skiing and short track speed skating. The Chinese delegation, which yesterday created a record high in gold medals and medal counts, still has several events that impact medals and even gold medals today, and it is expected that the Chinese delegation will be able to create magic again on this competition day.
The most noteworthy event of the day was the short track speed skating men's 5,000m relay, which was the most likely event for the Chinese delegation to hit the gold medal in today's competition. The Chinese team, led by Wu Dajing and Ren Ziwei, will compete with South Korea, Italy, Russia and Canada for the final gold medal. In the previous two Winter Olympics, the Chinese team won bronze and silver medals in the project, can they go further this time?
The freestyle ski men's aerial skills final will be contested today, with two Chinese players, Qi Guangpu and Jia Zongyang, on the podium. Jia Zongyang once won a bronze medal in Sochi and a silver medal in Pyeongchang, and today his goal is to be able to attack the gold medal. Qi Guangpu has a good state in this Winter Olympics, and he won a silver medal in the previous team competition.
Today will be the final day of short track speed skating, in addition to the men's 5000m relay, the women's 1500m race will also be played. Zhang Yuting, Han Yutong and Zhang Chutong, three Chinese athletes, will compete in the women's 1500 meters. The project is very skilled, and it is very difficult to hit the medal.
In addition, in today's curling field, the Chinese men's and women's teams will usher in the final battle.
