On the evening of the 11th, the short track speed skating event of the Beijing Winter Olympics began the competition for the fourth competition day. In the women's 1000m rematch, 3 Chinese players Qu Chunyu, Han Yutong and Zhang Chutong were all out and missed the semifinals. Dutch striker Schulting broke the world record previously held by South Korea's Shen Xixi for 10 years with a time of 1:26.514 and continued his road to defend his title.
The competition was divided into four groups, with Chinese players Qu Chunyu and Han Yutong appearing in group 1, and they had to face the challenge of defending champions and Dutch players Shultin and others. After the game began, Schultin took the lead and began to alternate leading with teammate Belseb. Although Han Yutong surpassed the inner road, he was quickly overtaken by two Dutch players.
In the end, two Dutch athletes, Schultin and Berceb, crossed the finish line as the top two in the group, and Schultin broke the world record with a time of 1:26.514. Qu Chunyu and Han Yutong ranked fourth and fifth in the group and unfortunately were out.
In the third group of matches, Zhang Chutong, the only chinese team that still has hopes of promotion, appeared. After firing the gun, Zhang Chutong fell to the end of the team, and with 7 laps left in the game, Zhang Chutong began to try to surpass, but never found the opportunity. In the end, Zhang Chutong ranked fourth in the group. As a result, the Chinese players were completely wiped out in the project and did not qualify for the semi-finals.
The final of the competition will be held at 20:43 on the 11th at the Capital Gymnasium.
Rematch breaks the world record!
She won the Women's Short Track 1000m championship at the Winter Olympics
For a long time, short-track speed skaters have been divided into "long-distance advantage players" and "short-distance advantage players", and her appearance has broken people's traditional cognition. From 500 meters, 1000 meters to 1500 meters, this fierce Dutch woman has a strong competitiveness, and her name has been mentioned countless times in recent years - Suzanne Shultin.
The women's 1000m final of the short track speed skating event at the Beijing Winter Olympics ended at the Capital Gymnasium. In this competition, which brought together famous players such as Fang Tana and Cui Minjing, the defending champion and Dutch player Shu erting won the championship with a time of 1:28.391.
It is worth mentioning that she broke the world record with a time of 1:26.514 in the rematch. In the women's 500m final on the evening of the 7th, the "beautiful woman" won the silver medal. At the Beijing Winter Olympics, Shultin undoubtedly ushered in the opportunity to establish her own dynasty, and she is indeed moving towards this goal.
In March 2021, in his native Netherlands, Schulting completed the feat of "big package". That year, the Short Track Speed Skating World Championships were staged at Dordrecht, and Schulting spanned the 500m, 1000m and 1500m events, winning all the gold medals in each event with a strong performance. Even in the super 3000m, which did not count the gold medal but only a supplement to the all-around points, Schultin was the first to cross the finish line and won the all-around championship without controversy. In the women's 3,000m relay final, she led her teammates to victory, thus completing the feat of winning all the gold medals in the women's event at one world championship.
Before her, only the legendary Canadian female athlete Daigel had achieved such a feat at the 1983 World Championships, and South Korea's male athlete and Winter Olympic champion Kim Dong-sung had achieved such a feat at the 2002 World Championships, and Shultin became the third person in the world to achieve this goal.
Like many European athletes, Schultin was a short-track speed skater who survived the cracks in the "Sino-Korean competition". However, after winning the women's 1,000m gold medal at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, Schulting gradually changed the world landscape of short track speed skating. Originally known for her super physical reserves and fierce skating skills, she has also improved significantly in the 500 meters event in the past two seasons. If any female athlete wants to win any of the short track speed skating events, she must first overcome The Schultin barrier.
Many people compare Shu Erting with Wang Meng, but in fact, the two have obvious differences in both technical characteristics and style. Compared with Wang Meng's "uncle walking" style of absolute strength sliding, Shulting is not without opponents, but relies on the fierceness of the sliding method and the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity in the game. If Wang Meng is compared to a cheetah with a sense of speed, then Shulting is a tiger hidden in the woods, waiting for the opportunity to appear at any time and defeating the enemy with one move.
After winning the women's 1000m championship, Schultin will also compete in the women's 3000m relay final and the women's 1500m on the 11th and 13th. If the Chinese women's team wants to make a difference, Shultin is definitely the biggest enemy that cannot be ignored.
