Wang Meng added one more gold medal to her collection, and her
team, China, had its best day at the short-track speed skating
World Cup Series in South Korea, clinching the 3,000-meter
relay.
Turin gold medallist Wang Meng, who won the 1,000 meters gold on
Saturday, made it two-in-a-row by clocking 44.647 to win the
women's 500.
Wang's teammate Fu Tianyu earned China a 1-2 finish with a time
of 44.693 and Bulgaria's Evgenia Radanova (44.851) was third.
The Chinese team edged out host South Korea in the women's relay by
a hair's breath, clocking 4:18.524 compared to the Koreans'
4:18.548. Japan failed to play catch-up and was seven seconds
behind.
