Back on the ice, the short track speed skating team will rely on younger players, such as two-time women's 500m world champion Fan Kexin.


The 20-year-old will compete in her first Olympics and she vowed to make the best out of it.


"We will still fight hard, even with our captain injured. We have been preparing for the Olympic Games for a long time and our team stays united," added Fan Jeff Skinner Jersey , who was crowned in the women's 500m at the World Championships in 2011 and 2012.
