Comeback queen Ye goes with the flow

HANGZHOU — For China's Ye Shiwen, competing against her younger counterparts at the Hangzhou Asian Games is a daunting task. Yet, winning a gold medal is no longer her primary objective.

At 27, Ye outpaced South Korea's Kim Seo-yeong to secure a silver in the women's 200m individual medley on Monday night. The gold was clinched by her 18-year-old teammate Yu Yiting.

"Although I was a little bit slower than I expected, I am still very happy to take a silver here. The home crowd gave me encouragement," she said.
