On December 12th, Beijing time, in the U-shaped Field Skills World Cup held in Copper Mountain, USA, Chinese star Cai Xuetong won the women’s team championship with 80.50 points. This is also Cai Xuetong’s first World Cup championship in 22 months.
Although the venue conditions are almost perfect, the first U-shaped Field Skills World Cup this season is still a tricky challenge for the 8 female players and 10 male players who participated in the finals. After all, there was no one in the two finals. Athletes can cleanly and neatly keep no mistakes in the three rounds of attempts.
In the women’s competition, two-time world champion Cai Xuetong entered the finals with 90.33 points and second place in the preliminaries. Another Chinese player Wu Shaotong also broke into the finals. The 22-year-old player scored 80.00 points in the preliminaries. According to the competition system, each of the 8 women will have 3 chances, with the best round result as the final result.
Although it has been nearly two years since Cai Xuetong participated in the World Cup last time due to the epidemic, the 28-year-old Cai Xuetong regained her confidence. She scored 70.75 points in the first round and made a mistake in the second attempt. However, in the last round, Cai Xuetong scored the highest score of 80.50 points and won the 13th World Cup victory of her career as she wished.
Although the Japanese player Tomita Sina ranked first with 76.00 points in the first round, but because of Cai Xuetong’s perfect performance in the third round, she could only finish second in the end. The most important thing is that Tomita’s performance in the subsequent two rounds was mediocre, scoring 34.25 points and 33.25 points respectively. Spaniard Querat-Castellet scored 70.50 points in the third round and reached the podium. Another Chinese player, Wu Shaotong, made all mistakes in three attempts and finally ranked eighth.
After winning this game, Cai Xuetong received 1000.00 points from the International Ski Federation, while Tomita and Castellette received 826.52 points and 690.75 points respectively.
In the Men’s U-shaped Field Skills World Cup, Japan’s 19-year-old Hirano scored 89.25 points in the game, which was enough to withstand strong challenges from other players. Swiss player Jane Scheler scored 88.50 points in the last attempt, and scored 23.75 points and 17.25 points in the first two attempts, and won the silver medal in a thrilling manner. Hirano’s Japanese compatriot Yuto Totsuka ranked in the top three with 87.25 points.
Next, the athletes will return to Copper Mountain, Colorado, to participate in the next FIS Snowboard U-Snowboard Skills World Cup held at the resort from December 9th to 11th.
