Seeing double: twin sisters win Asian Games gold together

SPORTS 07.10.2023

Twin sisters Wang Liuyi and Wang Qianyi won Asian Games gold on Saturday -- then said they hope to stand on the podium together at next year's Paris Olympics.

Text size:

Spectators at the artistic swimming in Hangzhou might have thought they were seeing double as the 26-year-old siblings from China won duet gold following the free routine.

"This competition is important for the qualification for the Paris Olympics," Qianyi said.

"For the Tokyo Olympics (in 2021) I went with the team. This time my sister and I represented the Chinese team in the duet.

"My goal is to stand on the Olympic stage with my sister."

The Games wrap up on Sunday.
