China’s athletes delivered a golden day at the Paris 2024 Olympics – and one teammate scored a lifetime victory with a surprise proposal! 🌟
On August 2, Chinese competitors clinched 13 total gold medals so far, dominating the leaderboard. Badminton mixed doubles duo Huang Yaqiong and Zheng Siwei smashed their way to victory, avenging their Tokyo 2020 silver medal loss with a decisive 21-8, 21-11 win over South Korea. The pair are now Olympic, World Cup, and World Champions – a true 🏸 Grand Slam!
But the real showstopper came afterward: Men’s doubles star Liu Yuchen dropped to one knee and proposed to his girlfriend, fellow athlete Huang, right on the court! 💍 'Would you marry me?' he asked, sparking tears and cheers. Teammates, coaches, and fans flooded social media with congratulations for the newly engaged pair. Talk about goals! 👏
With three bronzes and two silvers also added to China’s haul Friday, the team shows no signs of slowing down. Stay tuned for more updates! 🎉
