The Chinese women curlers awarded China its first ever team medal in the winter Olympic history, overwhelming Switzerland 12-6 to win the curling bronze medal at the Vancouver Olympics here Friday.
Switzerland, the two-time silver medallist at the 2006 Turin and the 2002 Salt Lake Games, was stopped from reaping the medal for three consecutive Games.
"I am very proud of my team. It's our first Olympic experience and we won a bronze medal," said Chinese skip Wang Bingyu.
China's Wang Bingyu, Liu Yin, Yue Qingshuang and Zhou Yan (from L to R) celebrate with the national flag after the women's curling bronze medal match against Switzerland at the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, Canada, Feb. 26, 2010. China won the bronze medal after defeating Switzerland 12-6
"We have been together for 10 years, not very long. So we have to thank our family and curling fans in China. A lot of people have shown such generosity and kindness, and we were glad to be able to award them with our performance," second Yue Qingshuang said of the medal.
