Women's freestyle wresting complete podium

Gold: Sarah Hildebrandt (USA)

Silver: Yusneylis Guzman Lopez (Cuba)

Bronze: Susaki Yui (Japan)

Bronze: Feng Ziqi (People's Republic of China)

In the wrestling competition of the Paris Olympics on August 7, Feng Ziqi, who participated in the Olympics for the first time, won the bronze medal in the women's freestyle 50kg category. Pang Qianyu, the silver medalist of the Tokyo Olympics, missed the women's freestyle 53kg category final and will participate in the bronze medal competition.

In the women's freestyle 50kg category, Feng Ziqi defeated Algerian player Dudu 10:0 in the resurrection match. In the bronze medal competition, Feng Ziqi defeated Mongolian player Dolegerzab, the silver medalist of the World Championships, 6:4. In the final stage of the game, Feng Ziqi was injured and bleeding in the corner of her eye, but she didn't feel it at all.

"Maybe it's because I won the game and got the medal, so I don't feel the pain." Feng Ziqi said, "I have met this opponent before. This time she accelerated her attack and kept hitting me. I was prepared, but I felt that the execution was not particularly ideal."

Feng Ziqi lost to Tokyo Olympic bronze medalist, American player Hildebrandt in the quarterfinals on the 6th. The latter defeated Cuban player Guzman Lopez 3:0 in the final on the 7th to win the gold medal. Tokyo Olympic champion, Japanese player Yui Suzaki also won the bronze medal.

"It's a pity to lose to the American player. My goal is to stand on a higher podium. The bronze medal is not a satisfactory outcome for me. I should be very calm, but I was still nervous in the Olympic Games. I didn't do the details well, I was a little impatient, and I didn't seize some opportunities." Feng Ziqi said.

Simple and elegant design

Olympic wrestling suits usually adopt simple cuts and color matching, avoiding overly fancy designs. This simple and elegant style reflects the traditional connotation of wrestling and highlights the strength and professional attitude of athletes.

Attach importance to national logos

The flags, badges or other national logos of participating countries will be prominently displayed on wrestling suits. This is not only necessary to show the image of the country, but also reflects the pride and honor of athletes to their motherland.

High-quality and durable fabrics

Olympic wrestling suits are made of high-quality cotton or synthetic fabrics, which can ensure comfort during exercise and have strong durability. Such fabrics can withstand the test of intense exercise and ensure that athletes can fully devote themselves to the competition.

Fit to the body cut

The cut of the wrestling suit is carefully designed to perfectly fit the athlete's body curve. This is not only beautiful and elegant, but also can maximize the flexibility and explosiveness of athletes.
