(sabasports report) Compared with the scene of the previous day, the Fuyang Water Sports Center on September 25 was a little less noisy. China won five gold and two silver MEDALS on the second and final day of the rowing event at the Hangzhou Asian Games. In this Asian Games, the Chinese rowing team won 11 gold MEDALS and 2 silver MEDALS in all 13 events.
“Asia leading” is not the ultimate goal of the Chinese rowing team. After all, in the history of the Asian Games, the Chinese rowing team has exceeded 100 gold MEDALS, and the advantage is difficult to shake. In post-match interviews, the Chinese players all mentioned a common goal – the Paris Olympics.
At the recent World Championships, the Chinese rowing team got a total of five tickets to the Paris Olympic Games. In addition to women’s quadruple sculls and men’s double sculls, women’s lightweight double sculls (Zou Jiaqi/Qiu Xiuping), women’s double sculls (Lu Shiyu/Shen Shuangmei) and women’s quadruple single sculls (Zhang Shuxian/Liu Xiaoxin/Wang Zifeng/Xu Xingye) also qualified for the Olympic Games. Next year’s Olympic qualifiers and qualifiers will give China a chance to qualify for more games.
