Another action-packed week at this year's Beijing Winter Olympics before it wraps up this Sunday. 

From Gu Ailing's sensational win to applause for Beijing's well-handled green Olympics, we get to you the very latest updates. 
 

  • China's figure skaters Han Cong/Sui Wenjing set a new world record of 84.41 points with a stunning performance in a short program to lead the standings
  • What happened with Russian teenage skater Kamila Valieva? 
  • Gu Ailing makes China proud. Team China's Gu Ailing crushed the competition on Friday to win gold in the women's Freeski halfpipe at Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou, north China, becoming the first athlete ever to win three medals in three different freestyle skiing events at the Winter Olympics
  • Ever heard of "doctors on skis"? You will now. 
  • China's medal sweep in freestyle skiing aerials at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics was the culmination of years of hard work and high-level performances, and to its foreign coaches, it came as no surprise
Good Job, Beijing!

From the opening ceremony to powering Olympics venues, Beijing is striving to fulfill its commitment to hold a green and low-carbon Olympics. Though some Western media questioned China’s reliance on coal outside the Olympics, more voices from the international community are lauding Beijing’s efforts to stage a green Olympics.

Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), spoke highly of the advanced technology China Media Group (CMG) has applied in the broadcasting of the Winter Olympics at a news conference in Beijing on Friday

Fashion on display at Beijing Winter Olympics 

When it comes to passion for fashion, ice and snow can actually turn up the heat.

When the Winter Games kicked off in Beijing on February 4, fashion was one of a few highlights of the opening ceremony. This time, China has created a strong fashion statement. The younger generation of designers embraces both traditional cultures as well as the Olympic spirit, creating something new through the Olympic stage.

Chen Peng, who designed five looks for the grand event, describes his design as simple, classic, and, at the same time, reflective of the younger Chinese generation.

High Tech China! 

The ribbon-shaped Olympic torch named "Flying" and the world's first hydrogen-powered torch for the Winter Olympic Games incorporate new materials and techniques that ensure it can stay lit under all weather conditions. 

The National Speed Skating Oval, known as the "Ice Ribbon," has adopted a set of photovoltaic power systems that brings carbon emissions close to zero.

Even though the games end on Sunday, you can watch all stories at CGTN America.
