Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

Zhao Dan and Gao Tingyu were the country's flag bearers during the opening ceremony.[5] Meanwhile, Xu Mengtao and Gao Tingyu were the closing ceremony flagbearers.[6][7]

Achievements and records
  • Yongqing Lamu (Yangchen Lhamo) and Ciren Zhandui (Tsering Damdul) become the first Tibetan athletes to be qualified for the Winter Olympics, in the snowboarding and cross-country skiing event respectively.[8]
  • It is China's most successful appearance at the Winter Olympics with nine golds and a total of 15 medals, and ranking third on the medal tally by gold medals (albeit in eleventh place by total medals), just above of the United States (pending investigation of the ROC figure skating team). China also broke the record for the most gold medals won by Asian countries at a single Winter Olympics (9), which was previously set by South Korea in 2010 and 2006 (6).

Ice hockey
Main article: Ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Olympics

China has qualified 25 male and 23 female competitors to the ice hockey tournaments as part of their two teams.[19]

Due to the lack of ice hockey talent in China players were recruited from abroad. The men's hockey team has eleven Canadians, nine Chinese, three Americans, and a Russian. Due to their extremely poor performance their attendance at the games was in question even though they traditionally automatically qualified as the host.[20]

Men's tournament
Main article: Ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Olympics – Men's tournament

China men's national ice hockey team qualified as the host.[21]

Team roster

The roster was announced on 28 January 2022.[22]

Due to the lack of ice hockey talent in China players had to be recruited from abroad. The men's hockey team has eleven Canadians, six Chinese, seven Americans, and a Russian.[23][24] Neither the Chinese Olympic Committee, International Ice Hockey Federation nor the IOC commented on how it was possible for foreign players to compete for China, as the Olympic Charter requires competitors to be citizens of the country they represent. The IOC Executive Board has the authority to make certain exceptions of a "general or individual nature", though it is unclear whether this was the case. When asked whether he had naturalized as a Chinese citizen, athlete Jake Chelios refused to comment, though he confirmed that he still had his American passport.[25]
