On September 30, the final of the 10,000-meter points knockout competition of the men's speed skating track at the Hangzhou Asian Games was held at the Qiantang Roller Skating Center, and China's Zhang Zhenhai won the silver medal. South Korea's Jung Byung-hee and Choi In-ho won gold and bronze respectively. Points knockout is the most exciting and least definitive race in speed skating.
Taking the men's 10,000-meter points elimination competition of the Hangzhou Asian Games as an example, a total of 22 points were set up in the competition, of which the first 21 points were 2 points for the first place and 1 point for the second place. At the same time, these points are fixed elimination points, which eliminate one or more athletes who are lagging behind, ranking them in reverse order of elimination.
