China’s Gao Tingyu wins speed skating Olympic bronze

Chinese skater Gao Tingyu won a bronze medal in the men’s 500 meters speed skating behind Norwegian gold medalist Havard Lorentzen and S. Korea’s Cha Min-kyu at the PyeongChang Olympics.

It took a dramatic photo finish to separate the top two at the Gangneung Oval on Monday.

Skating after Cha had broken the Olympic record in a blistering lap, the ice-cool Lorentzen went 0.01 seconds faster, zooming around the track in 34.41 seconds.
