Hey there, winter sports fans! ❄️ Get ready to cheer because Chinese snowboarder Cai Xuetong is gearing up to snatch gold at the upcoming 9th Asian Winter Games in her hometown, Harbin! 🏂✨
In an exclusive chat with CGTN Sports Scene's Mike Fox, Cai shared her dream of climbing to the top of the podium, right in front of her local supporters. Imagine the hometown pride! 🏆🇨🇳
Cai burst onto the scene at just 16 during the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, making waves as the youngest competitor in the women's halfpipe. Since then, she's been shredding the snow and stacking up medals. In 2015, she clinched gold at the FIS Snowboard World Championships in Austria. Four years later, she snagged a silver in Utah. Talk about a winning streak! 🥇🥈
Her last Asian Winter Games performance in 2017 landed her a silver in Sapporo, Japan, but this time, Cai is eyeing the top spot. She's among 170 athletes representing the Chinese mainland, all set to bring their A-game. Let's rally behind Cai as she aims for glory on home turf! 🙌🎉
