On Monday, Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo won the first ever Olympic gold medal for China in figure skating. Pang Qing adn Tong Jian also won the silver medal in figure skating, gaining a second medal for China in one event. Shen and Zhao was the first couple to win three medals in a row during consecutive Olympic Games. China's couples wound up in first and second place, with the Americans not even placing in the top seven. This is a huge win for China, especially since the US did not do well in the figure skating event. This win has instilled even more national pride for their country.
