To add to the drama the pair had been the lowest-ranked competitors going into the competition due to their lengthy¹ absence from the ice. But against all odds² their superb short programme score from Sunday was enough to see them win the overall competition despite some small errors in Monday's free skate event. An emotional Zhao said, "It's been so many years - to finally get this gold is so exciting. So many years have been devoted³ to this dream." China has now won three medals at the Vancouver Games - one gold, one silver, and one bronze for Wang Beixing in the women's 500m speed skating. So what next for Zhao and Shen? Will they defend their medals in the next games? Well, Shen indicated that the couple may have other plans: "It's hard to continue skating - maybe it's time to have a baby," she said.
