Jiang Xindi,[1] nicknamed "Cindy"[2] (Chinese: 姜馨迪; born January 26, 1997, in Harbin, China) is a Chinese female curler. She was part of the Chinese women's curling team on 2018 Winter Olympics.

Career

Jiang competed at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, where the Chinese team participated in the women's curling tournament.[3] She competed at the 2018 World Women's Curling Championship where her team placed seventh. Jiang also won the bronze medal at the 2017 and 2018 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships and the silver medal at the 2013 and 2015 Pacific-Asia Junior Curling Championships.

To start the 2019–20 season, Jiang and her team won the World Curling Tour event, the 2019 Hokkaido Bank Curling Classic. She represented China at the 2019 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships as second for Han Yu. After going 6–1 in the round robin, they defeated Korea and Japan in the semifinal and final, respectively, to claim the title.[4] It was China's first title since 2014. The victory earned a spot for China at the 2020 World Women's Curling Championship, which was cancelled due to COVID-19.[5][6] A year later, the team represented China at the 2021 World Women's Curling Championship, finishing tenth with a 6–7 record.[7]
