En route to the gold medal, Liu clocked a time of 23.97 to establish an Asian record in the one-lap sprint. She bettered her own record, which was 24.03. She was followed to the wall by <strong>Zhang Yufei<\/strong> in 24.29.<\/p>\n<p>While Liu has produced quick performances in the past, she was not part of the sprint event at the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/tokyo2020.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Olympic Games in Tokyo<\/a>. Yet, she clearly took advantage of her opportunity on home soil, where <strong>Cheng Yujie<\/strong> was also strong with an effort of 24.41.<\/p>\n<p>Speed was also on display in the men\u2019s 50 freestyle, which was won by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/yu-hexin-zhang-yufei-take-50-free-titles-on-final-night-of-chinese-nationals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Yu Hexin<\/strong><\/a> in a Chinese record of 21.68. Yu was the only swimmer to crack the 22-second barrier, as <strong>Wang Changhao<\/strong> was the runnerup in 22.06. Yu was considerably faster than the 22.14 mark he produced at the Olympics, which was good for a tie for 19th place.<\/p>\n<p>In the men\u2019s 1500 freestyle, <strong>Cheng Long<\/strong> took the gold medal behind a time of 15:06.30. Meanwhile, the foursome of <strong>Xu Jiayu<\/strong>, <strong>Yan<\/strong> <strong>Zibei<\/strong>, <strong>Sun Jiajun<\/strong> and <strong>He Junyi<\/strong> put together a swim of 3:32.86 in the men\u2019s 400 medley relay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liu Xiang Takes Down Asian Record in 50 Freestyle With Sub-24 Clocking On the final day of the Chinese National Games, Liu Xiang ventured into exclusive territory in the 50-meter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7533,"featured_media":384396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3,10],"tags":[1206,44213,44212,47000],"class_list":["post-487956","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-world","tag-chinese-national-games","tag-liu-xiang","tag-yu-hexin","tag-zhang-yufei"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
