In the end, the Guangdong team won the first place in the three sports of balance beam, high and low bars, and free exercise, and steadily won the team championship into its arms. In the silver and bronze medal battles, although the Beijing team won the first place in the vault, the Anhui team achieved a more balanced performance in vaulting, uneven bars and free exercises, and won the silver medal; the Zhejiang team regretted to be in fourth place because the score on the high and low bars was not ideal.
After the game, Liu Tingting said: "Today I am more satisfied with my performance, and my teammates are also doing very well. Winning the gold medal at the National Games this time more or less made up for the regret of not being on the Olympic field. This should be my last National Games as an athlete. ”
