At the beginning of the competition, Sui Wenjing Han Cong performed the track Bridge Over Troubled Water, which is their repertoire this year since winning the 2017 World Championships.
Twist lift for 4 weeks, very nicely done. Point ice rotation for 3 weeks + 2 weeks for consecutive jumps, spirals, done quite well. Three weeks later, Sui Wenjing made a mistake. Throw Philip for three weeks and succeed. Throw 3 weeks and stand firm. The last action lift was also in place, so that Sui Wenjing and Han Cong ended their free skating competition.
It is worth mentioning that at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics 4 years ago, Han Cong and Sui Wenjing, the "onion barrel combination" who were aiming to win the championship, made a mistake in the free skate, missed the gold medal with a slight difference of 0.43 points, and only won the silver medal. The 0.43 points are like a natural barrier for Sui Wenjing and Han Cong, for the Winter Olympic gold medal, they set off again, just to make up for the 0.43 point gap and impact the Beijing Winter Olympic championship. Participating in the Beijing Winter Olympics, the "Onion Barrel Combination" stood up to two World Championships champions, runners-up in the Winter Olympics and countless expectations. Before they left for the Beijing Winter Olympics, they said their goal was to win the championship and win the gold medal.
In the previous team competition, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong broke the world record for the ISU double short program, but unfortunately the Chinese team did not win the medal and only won the 5th place. In the short program of the pair skating, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong once again broke the world record for the short program with a perfect performance, 84.41 points, ranking first, performing strongly, and also showing a very good state.
Participating in the free skating showdown today, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong seized the opportunity to win the gold medal of the Winter Olympics as they wished, achieved their goal, and made up for the huge regret in Pyeongchang 4 years ago, which was touching. Congratulations also to Sui Wenjing and Han Cong for successfully realizing their dreams.
