This is the best summary I could come up with:
The race numbers for Lin Yuwei and Wu Yanni form “64” - a common allusion to the incident which happened on June 4.
Discussions of the incident remain taboo in China, with authorities routinely scrubbing any mention of the topic from the internet.
It remains unclear how many people actually died that day, but human rights groups’ estimates range from several hundred to several thousand killed.
The athletes had embraced each other after a 100m hurdles race at the Asian Games in which Ms Lin won gold.
China has won nearly 300 medals so far in the Asian Games, which are currently taking place in the Chinese city of Hangzhou.
Posts relating to the massacres are regularly removed from the internet, which is tightly controlled by the government.
