China capped its Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics campaign with a record-breaking performance, winning five gold, four silver and six bronze medals — its best result at an overseas Games. China sent 126 athletes to compete across seven sports and 91 events, the largest delegation in an overseas Winter Games.
Standout moments came in freestyle skiing, snowboarding and speed skating. Su Yiming won the men's snowboard slopestyle on his 22nd birthday, earning China its first gold of the Games. Speed skater Ning Zhongyan upset pre-race favorite Jordan Stolz to win the men's 1,500m with a new Olympic record — the first gold in the event won by an Asian skater since 1924.
Perhaps the most emotional story came from the freestyle skiing aerials team. Five-time Olympian Xu Mengtao defended her women's title, and her husband Wang Xindi won the men's event, making them a rare married couple to each claim individual Olympic titles at the same Games.
After winning the women's freeski halfpipe, Gu Ailing became the most decorated freeskier in Olympic history.
