Young speedster Sun Long lit up the ice this weekend, snagging 🥇 in the men’s 500m at the 2024/25 ISU Short Track Speed Skating World Tour with a blazing 40.155-second finish! The Chinese athlete outskated Canada’s Steven Dubois and teammate Liu Shaoang, proving squad goals are real ❄️🇨🇳.
Sun wasn’t done there—he also clinched 🥉 in the 1,500m, trailing the Republic of Korea’s Park Ji-won and Canada’s William Dandjinou. \"The gold belongs to our whole team,\" Sun said, highlighting teamwork amid intense competition.
🇨🇦 Canada’s Dominance & Record Drama
Canada’s Danae Blais dominated the women’s 1,000m (1:29.678) and led her team to victory in the 3,000m relay. But heartbreak hit their mixed 2,000m relay squad: after breaking the world record Friday, they missed the final A on Saturday.
Final Day Fireworks Ahead 🔥
Sunday’s closing races feature five golds, including the men’s 1,000m and 5,000m relays. Will China add more medals? Stay tuned! 👀
