Break the world record again! Sui Wenjing Han Cong scored 84.41 points and advanced to the free skating competition
On February 18, Beijing time, Chinese figure skating duo Sui Wenjing Han Cong appeared in the winter Olympics pair skating short program competition. During the competition, the powerful duo appeared in the fifth group, scoring a super high score of 84.41 points, once again breaking the world record previously set by themselves in the team competition of this Winter Olympics!
Before the game, the famous table tennis player Xu Xin personally boarded the ice rink when participating in a variety show and sent blessings to the two players in the form of figure skating. The "Onion Barrel" combination has the strength to rush gold in this event, currently ranking first in the world and has set a new world record for the score of short programs with a score of 82.83 points in the previous team event, and today's short program competition is not too difficult for them.
In this competition, most of the participating groups performed relatively tightly, but Sui Wenjing Han Cong was unusually calm, and the movements were completed very beautifully. In the previous team competition, although they also broke the world record, their technical score was not too high compared to the completion of their own program, but today they completed the breakthrough and got 45.96 technical points, which is one of the important reasons why they can break the world record again.
Although today is not the final, the Sui Wenjing Han Cong combination showed good form, and if they can continue this amazing performance in the subsequent free skating competition, then they have a good chance of winning the gold medal in the pair skating competition. It is worth mentioning that another Chinese team, Peng Chengjin yang, also performed well and also entered tomorrow's free skating competition.
Figure skating pair skating has always been the dominant sport of the Chinese team, and the shen xue Zhao Hongbo group has won the gold medal in this event at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. For Sui Wenjing and Han Cong, the silver medal at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics is still a little regrettable, and this home competition is the best opportunity for them to attack the gold medal. Hopefully, in tomorrow's free skating game, the Onion Barrels will continue to perform like today.
