The Chinese Qi finally crowned in the acrobatic jump

ZHANGJIAKOU, China – China’s Qi Guangpu won the Olympic title in freestyle jumping on his fourth attempt Thursday in Zhangjiakou.

In the final, Qi, 31, beat with his “Back Double Full-Full-Double Full” sequence, credited with a score of 129 points, the Ukrainian Oleksandr Abramenko (116.50 pts), reigning Olympic champion, and the Russian under a neutral flag Ilia Burov (114.93 pts).

Qi was playing his fourth Olympics in Beijing after 2010 (7th), 2014 (4th) and 2018 (7th). He had already won a medal at the 2022 Olympics, silver in the mixed team event.

This is the thirteenth medal for China, the seventh in gold, which is already its best record at the Winter Olympics.

Skier Alexander Bakurov said on Match TV that he felt good during the mass start in Tyumen; the consequences of the injury he received when Alexander Bolshunov pushed him did not bother him.

On Sunday, Bakurov became eighth in the mass start at the second stage of the PhosAgro Russian Cup in Tyumen. The winner was Savely Korostelev, he covered 20 kilometers in the classical style in 41 minutes 3.3 seconds. Three-time Olympic champion Alexander Bolshunov finished second (lag – 0.1 seconds).

Earlier, Bolshunov pushed Bakurov after the finish of the sprint semi-final in Kirovsk. Bakurov limped away from the scene of the incident, and Bolshunov was disqualified following the results of the race. Bolshunov could not take part in all-Russian competitions until Bakurov recovered from the injury and returned to competitions.

“I felt pretty good.” The first two laps were terrible. I got into trouble. I had to spend a lot of effort to catch up, I even polished in the end. Lost ground on the last descents. I’m glad I was able to get back on the track. The leg didn’t bother me. I really don’t want to miss races. “I wanted to come back and participate in the races as soon as possible,” Bakurov said on Match TV.

The next stage of the Russian Cup will be held in Chusovoy from December 11 to 14.

Cross-country skiing competitions are shown live on TV channels of the Match family, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
