Biography

She was a silver medalist on uneven bars at the 1999 World Championships and was a member of the bronze medal winning team at the 2000 Olympics, but the medal was stripped by the IOC in 2010 after one of the Chinese team members, Dong Fangxiao was found to be underage during the competition. In March 2012, the 1999 World Championship Team Bronze was forfeited by China and given to Ukraine in light of the same information. [2]

Huang retired in December 2001 and became a gymnastics coach after graduating from Jinan University in China.
