China's Wu Yanni and India's Jyothi Yarraji were embroiled in the incident in the final of the women's 100m hurdles.
China's Wu Yanni argues with the officials after a false start in the women's 100m hurdles final during the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou on Oct 1, 2023. HANGZHOU: China celebrated over a dozen golds across different sports as well a world record in shooting at the Hangzhou Asian Games on Sunday , but there were also disappointments and drama for the hosts as large flag-wielding crowds watched on their national day.
China's Wu Yanni celebrates as she passes India's Jyothi Yarraji before she was disqualified in the women's 100m hurdles final at the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou on October 1, 2023. "The difference in quality is massive," wrote one user on China's top football app Dongqiudi."Only losing by two is actually pretty decent."In badminton, however, China's men restored some pride when they came back from 2-0 down to win the men's team gold 3-2.
The silver medal went to India, whose team included Rajeshwari Kumari, 31, daughter of acting president of the Olympic Council of Asia and former Asian Games champion in shooting, Randhir Singh. But in women's golf, India number one Aditi Ashok gave up a seven-shot lead in a final-day meltdown to lose her gold medal chance, allowing world number 206 Arpichaya Yubol to claim an unlikely title for Thailand.
