Two-time World Championship Silver Medalists Wenjing Sui and Cong Han finally climbed to the top of the podium with their tender and intimate performance to "Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Paul Simon. Superbly executed elements included a level three quadruple twist, side-by-side triple toe loops-double toe loops with their arms over their heads, a soaring throw triple Salchow and a confident throw triple flip. The Four Continents champions only mistake came on Sui's fall while attempting the side-by side triple Salchows. The performance earned the Chinese team a score of 150.83 in the free skate for a total combined competition score of 232.06. All of the team's components scores were nine or above.

"We had our dream of World Championship gold and we are very happy to achieve this goal," said Sui. "I do have something to improve. My triple Salchow had some problem. I hope next season I can do a wonderful program. We want to go to the top of the podium at next year's Olympics."
