Yi Siling, a native of Hunan, was born in Hunan and grew up in Guangdong. At present, she is officially registered in Guangdong (that is, her household registration is in Guangdong), so she is a Guangdong athlete and represents Guangdong Province in the Olympic Games. The gold medal belongs to Guangdong and has nothing to do with Hunan.

Many athletes from China also took part in the Olympic Games.

Aren't there many athletes in China who represent other countries in the Olympic Games after joining foreign countries? After they become foreign nationals, they are no longer from China, but only from China.

After Yi Siling won the championship, the media in Guangdong and Hunan provinces used the following words when reporting, which was clear at a glance:

Guangdong media: "Congratulations to Guangdong female athlete Yi Siling for shooting down the first Olympic gold medal" and "Guangdong player Yi Siling won the first gold medal";

Hunan media: "In fact, Yi Siling is also A Xiang Yazi" and "Yi Siling, a China player from Hunan".
