(Shaanxi National Games) "Olympic substitute" Wei Xiaoyuan gymnastics women's all-around win Tang Xijing and Lu Yufei did not win the medal

Xi'an, September 24 (China News Service) (Reporter Zhang Yichen) "Today is still a little nervous, the game process is a test for themselves, but still carried down, for the next World Championships to do exercise." Guangxi team Wei Xiaoyuan said after the game on the 24th.

The gymnastics women's individual all-around final of the 14th National Games opened in Xi'an on the 24th, and after four rounds of competition, Wei Xiaoyuan defeated Tang Xijing, Ou Yushan, Lu Yufei and other main athletes of the Tokyo Olympic Games who were optimistic before the game with a total score of 55.064 points to win the championship.

In the preliminaries, Guangdong's Ou Yushan ranked first with 55.598 points, Guangxi's Wei Xiaoyuan ranked second with 55.165 points, and Henan's Lu Yufei ranked third with 54.999 points. Fujian team Qiu Qiyuan, Beijing team Tang Xijing, Guangdong team Luo Rui ranked fourth to sixth.

In the final, Tang Xijing, Ou Yushan and Lu Yufei were divided into the first group, and the competitions of vaulting, high and low bars, balance beam and free gymnastics were competed in turn. A total of 23 athletes participated in the final.

In the women's individual all-around competition in gymnastics at the National Games, Lu Yufei, Zhang Jin, Tang Xijing and Ou Yushan became the highlights of this field because they played in the Tokyo Olympic Games.

In the first round of vaulting in the final, Lu Yufei and Ou Yushan both adopted a strategy of reducing difficulty to seek stability, and both scored 13.466 points. Subsequently, Tang Xijing failed to challenge the difficulty, scoring only 12.800 points.

In the second round of uneven bars, as the dominant event of Chinese women's gymnastics, the performance of the Olympic "Little Flowers" in this round was mixed, Tang Xijing made a serious mistake again when she landed, 12.800 points made her basically withdraw from the championship competition sequence, and Ou Yushan and Lu Yufei completed the established actions relatively smoothly.

After two rounds, the performance of the main players of the Olympic Games did not meet expectations, Lu Yufei and Ou Yushan ranked third and fourth respectively, and Zhang Jin and Tang Xijing ranked eighth and fifteenth respectively. Wei Xiaoyuan, who was named to the Tokyo Olympic substitute list, finished first with 28.132 points.

Ou Yushan has been in the spotlight since her debut, but due to injuries, her performance on the field did not meet expectations. At the National Games, she won a team gold medal with the Guangdong team and entered the individual all-around final with the first place in the preliminary round.

The third round of the balance beam competition lost a major attraction due to Guan Chenchen's abstention in the individual all-around competition. Tang Xijing, who won the silver medal in the balance beam at the Tokyo Olympic Games, became the most powerful athlete in the event, perhaps due to the psychological impact of successive mistakes in the first two rounds, Tang Xijing did not narrow the point difference in his dominant event. Wei Xiaoyuan and Luo Rui ranked in the top two of the total score, followed by Lu Yufei and Ou Yushan.

In the final free gymnastics project, Tang Xijing appeared, and the melodious melody of "Nine Children" resounded throughout the gymnastics hall, pulling the time back to Tokyo two months ago. Although there was no hope of winning the championship, her smooth performance in the project also received applause from the audience.

Wei Xiaoyuan, who had already established an advantage in the first three rounds, did not play well in the final free exercise project, giving Ou Yushan the opportunity to reverse. Ou Yushan finally played smoothly, although scoring 13.500 points, he still missed the gold medal with a difference of 0.099 points. Lu Yufei and Zhang Jin ranked fourth and fifth, and Tang Xijing ranked thirteenth.

Ou Yushan said after the game that he played a level in the final, and he slightly regretted the result of the game, the first half of the game was good, and there were small flaws in the second half, and he would continue to improve later.

"This gold medal has added to my confidence in the competition, for the Paris Olympic Games I still choose the team first, and then strive for a breakthrough on the uneven bars and balance beam. Today's gold medal was given to my coach and the people who have always supported me. Wei Xiaoyuan finally said. (End)
