BEIJING, Oct. 30 -- Wang Meng added one more gold medal to her collection, and her team, China, had its best day at the short-track speed skating World Cup Series in South Korea, clinching the 3,000-meter relay.

Turin gold medalist Wang Meng, who won the 1,000 meters gold on Saturday, made it two-in-a-row by clocking 44.647 to win the women's 500.

Wang's teammate Fu Tianyu earned China a 1-2 finish with a time of 44.693 and Bulgaria's Evgenia Radanova (44.851) was third.

The Chinese team edged out host South Korea in the women's relay by a hair's breath, clocking 4:18.524 compared to the Koreans' 4:18.548. Japan failed to play catch-up and was seven seconds behind.
