PBBM sa National Teacher's Day: 'I wish you a joyful and productive celebration'
Nakuha ni Muhammed Bozdag (Turkey) ang silver medal (1:26.349) at bronze medal naman ang naiuwi ni Japanese Raito Kida (1:26.478).
“Peter was just on the outside of the pack for a little too long. In short track, you want to minimize your stay outside the pack because you’re skipping the longer distance and putting more effort just to stay with the group. That led to the result,” pahayag naman ng coach ni Groseclose na si two-time Winter Olympics medalist John-Henry Krueger.
