INCHEON, South Korea, Sept. 26  -- China dominated in trampoline at Asian Games here on Friday, by sweeping two gold and two silver medals in men's and women's event.

Dong Dong lived up to his billing as the London Olympic champion when he 62.480 points to take the men's title, followed by his teammate Tu Xiao (60.435) and Japan's Yasuhiro Ueyama (59.415).

"I did not expect that I could deliver such a good performance," Dong said. "I did not play well in World Cup this year, which disturbed me psychologically."

"But I am satisfied with my performance today, and it boosted my confidence," he added.

Li Dan, leading the world ranking list of trampoline, claimed the women's title. As the top finisher in the qualifications, Li maintained her good form in the final and gained the highest score of 57.000.

Since it was her debut at Asian Games, Li said she was a little nervous.

"This is my first time to participate in Asian Games, so I think it can be a really good experience in my sports lift," said Li.

"I was nervous so I made some mistakes, but I am satisfied with my performance today. Even though players aren't that strong and game is not that competitive, anyway I think it is good experience for me."

Another Chinese gymnast Zhong Xingping won the silver medal with 54.830 points, the bronze medal went to Ayano Kishi from Japan.
