The other two Chinese players are: Zhang Kexin, who ranked fifth in the preliminaries, and Li Fanghui, who ranked seventh in the preliminaries.
The Women's U-Shaped Field Skills Final is scored based on the athlete's jumping height, movement complexity, and grabbing.
18-year-old Li Fanghui maintained good height and integrity in the first slide, and finally got a good score of 81.75 points, and when the results came out, she ranked second in the first slide.
19-year-old Zhang Kexin completed the 1080 action in the preliminary stage again in the first skate! And successfully completed all the moves, when the results came out, with 78.75 points, ranked fourth in the first slide!
18-year-old Gu Ailing in the first skate, Gu Ailing finally with 93.25 points, temporarily ranked first among the 12 athletes in the first round! This is almost a score that can get a card, and it is also the only athlete who scored 90 points in the first round of competition, such a score will inevitably allow Gu Ailing to reduce pressure and improve the difficulty of his actions in the follow-up competition!
Gu Ailing was perfect in the first slide!
Why we should emphasize the first skate, because the variables of skiing are very large, and the possibility of mistakes is also very large, so most athletes will try to skate in the first skate and get a relatively stable score, thereby reducing their own pressure, for the subsequent two slides, trying more difficult actions, challenging themselves, laying a foundation.
In the second skate, Li Fanghui completed the 1080 action, got 86.50 points, ranking 4th among the athletes who have appeared, Zhang Kexin completed the 1080 action again, but the final jump height was insufficient, the last action failed, and still took the first skate Better.
Gu Ailing scored 95.25 points in the second slide! Refreshed his first slide score, still high in the 12 athletes! The score of the second slide can basically ensure that Gu Ailing can get a medal!

In the third slide, Li Fanghui also hoped to pursue the difficulty of the action, but made mistakes in the continuous action, and in the end it was still the second slide that performed better! In order to get a medal, Zhang Kexin also continued to impact his highest difficulty in the third slide, but finally ended in a mistake, and in order to surpass himself, Zhang Kexin also made a mistake after the action mistake, after being treated by ambulance personnel, hoping that there would be no major obstacles.
In the challenges of extreme sports, mistakes and injuries are problems that every athlete can encounter, but no matter what, you are our heroes! Come on!
And before Gu Ailing appeared, she had already decided to win the gold medal!
In the third round, Gu Ailing did not launch a difficult challenge, but fully enjoyed the fruits of victory!
