The Olympic Qualifier Series: The Olympic Qualifier Series (OQS) in Shanghai is definitely a benchmark for future Olympic Qualifiers, International Olympic Committee (IOC) president Thomas Bach said here on Saturday. Bach made the remarks after the cycling BMX freestyle women's park final, as he witnessed Chinese cyclists Sun Sibei, Sun Jiaqi and Deng Yawen sweeping the podium in front of a packed home crowd.

"It's a fantastic start for this Olympic Qualifier Series and I can only thank and congratulate China and Shanghai for such a wonderful performance," Bach said. "A great result and congratulate the Chinese Olympic Committee for having a clean sweep."

"Definitely, that's a benchmark and I guess that our Hungarian friends will be a little bit nervous after what they see here with such a perfect organization, with such a beautiful venue and with such an excited crowd," Bach joked.
