On February 18, 2022, the penultimate matchday of the Beijing Winter Olympics, the Number of Gold Medals of the Chinese Delegation reached 8, equaling the United States and currently ranking fourth in the gold medal list. Next, the Chinese team and the American team still have gold points, and may have to compete until the last moment like the Tokyo Olympics.
The rest of the game, the Chinese team still has two gold points, the first is the figure skating doubles, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong are strong, absolutely the big favorite to win the championship, as long as the normal play and no obvious mistakes, the hope of winning the championship is indeed very large.
Secondly, Ning Zhongyan's speed skating men's 1000m final is also worth paying attention to, after all, he has won the Championship in this season's World Cup. However, Ning Zhongyan was in a general state when he participated in the 1500m final before, so let's not give him so much pressure, and it is more appropriate to set the goal as an impact medal.
Since we did not enter the final four in team events such as curling and ice hockey, the events that can compete for medals in the final battle should be figure skating and speed skating.
On the U.S. side, men's curling did not enter the finals, women's curling did not reach the final four, men's ice hockey did not enter the final four, women's ice hockey only won the second place, the collective project suffered a heavy blow, and the number of gold medals has remained at 8.
Next, American athletes will also participate in biathlon, figure skating pair skating, speed skating men's 1000 meters, as well as snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and other events, but in these events, American athletes do not have the strength to win.
In the final stage, the biggest event of the United States gold competition is the freestyle ski men's U-shaped track skill, in the qualifiers, the American player Aaron Bronck won the first place, a total of four American players in the final of the project, the hope of winning gold is indeed very large. However, the project is also very variable, and New Zealand's Nico Portios is also very strong, and the American players may not easily win the gold.
In a simple comparison, the Chinese team and the American team still have a relatively large hope of winning gold, comparatively speaking, the Chinese team's gold hope in the figure skating pair skating event may be slightly larger, plus Ning Zhongyan also has a certain hope to impact the gold medal. Therefore, the Chinese team may finally defeat the American team with a gold medal advantage. If the Chinese team wins 9 or even 10 gold medals, it should be among the top three in the gold medal list, let's wait and see!
