We’ve concluded day five of the 2023 Asian Games which means there is only one more day remaining at this prestigious quadrennial event. As a refresher, this year’s edition was postponed from 2022 due to COVID-19 concerns within the host nation of China.

As with previous sessions, we’ve seen multiple Games Records and National Records go by the wayside and the Chinese men’s 4x100m free relay wrapped up a new Asian Record to boot in tonight’s finals.
