13-year-old swimmer Yu Zidi secures second gold medal at Asian Games amid doping controversy
The Asian Games in Nagoya-Aichi have seen significant sporting achievements and controversies. Chinese schoolgirl swimmer Yu Zidi, aged 13, has won her second gold medal at the event, setting a world-leading time of 2 minutes 6.10 seconds in the 200m individual medley. This performance, just 0.40 seconds slower than the world record held by Canadian Summer McIntosh, positions Yu as a potential star for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Yu, who also won the 200m butterfly on Sunday, has broken two Asian Games records in consecutive days. The event also saw a dramatic moment in the men's 100m breaststroke, where Japan's Shin Ohashi and China's Dong Zhihao dead-heated for gold. Hong Kong's Siobhan Haughey successfully defended her title in the women's 200m freestyle. However, the Games were marred by a doping case involving Thailand's 19-year-old badminton player Pitchamon Opatniputh, who tested positive for furosemide and has been provisionally suspended. The teenager, ranked 18th in the world, was set to face China in the team event. The women's football match between North and South Korea ended in a 1-1 draw, with North Korea leading through Chae Un Yong's first-half goal before Yun Su-jeong equalised in the second half. The match took place amid ongoing tensions between the two nations, which remain technically at war since the 1950-53 Korean War. In boxing, Taiwan's Kan Chia-wei, the 2023 silver medalist, lost to Palestine's Mohammed Issa, while Turkmenistan's Bayramdurdy Nurmuhammedov, the 2023 bronze medalist, was defeated by Bahrain's Aly Abdalla. Palestine made their Asian Games baseball debut, losing 12-0 to the Philippines but expressing pride in their participation as a symbol of hope amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The team's leader, Oney Roberto Guillen Cardenas, stated that simply being present at the Games was a victory, highlighting the significance of representing their people during difficult times.
