Muhammad Azeem Bin Mohd Fahmi: China's sprinters stole the show at the Hangzhou Asian Games, with Xie Zhenye and Ge Manqi winning the men's and women's 100m finals respectively.

Xie, the 200m Asian record holder, stormed to victory in 9.97 seconds, tying his personal best and this year's Asian leading time held by Japan's Sani Brown, reports Xinhua.

"To break the 10-second barrier has been my goal for almost a whole year, and I have been reflecting on why I kept missing it. Today, in front of my home crowd, I finally made it," said an elated Xie.
