🏒🔥 China's Winter Olympics team is making waves before the first snowflake falls in Italy! Speed skater Ning Zhongyan and short track phenom Zhang Chutong have been named flagbearers for the Milano Cortina 2026 opening ceremony this Friday, the Chinese delegation announced today.
Ning, 26, brings serious ice cred – he’s been stacking World Cup medals since 2019 and dominated last year’s Asian Winter Games with three golds. Remember his slick performance at Beijing 2022? He’s back and faster than ever! 🏅
Not to be outshined, 22-year-old Zhang Chutong is the relay queen 👑 – she powered China to bronze in 2022 and upgraded to gold at the 2025 Asian Games. Talk about #GlowUp!
With 286 team members (including 67 Olympic newbies), China’s delegation is serving serious young talent vibes. All eyes will be on Milan’s iconic San Siro Stadium this Friday as these ice warriors lead the charge. ❄️🇨🇳
