"The track is very good here in Chengdu, and I think it is good for my athletic performance," said Guzman, adding that he would tour the city after completing his races.

Representing Paraguay as the nation's sole athlete at the Games, Julio Cesar Mirena Ortiz made history by clinching the country's first gold medal in the 5,000m track men's point race final with 23 points.

"It's my second medal. It was really hard, but I'm very happy to take two medals for my country," said the 29-year-old, who had taken silver in Tuesday's 10,000m road men's point race.

China's Zhang Zhenhai secured a bronze in the men's sprint 500m +D, marking China's first medal in roller sports.

In the 5,000m track women's point race, Colombia's Gabriela Rueda and Gabriela Vargas Sarmiento of Ecuador shared the gold with 15 points each. Germany's Larissa Ursula Gaiser took the bronze, while China's veteran Guo Dan finished eighth.

An International World Games Association (IWGA) founding member, roller sports at the Chengdu World Games feature three disciplines - speed skating (road and track), inline freestyle, and inline hockey. With four more speed skating golds to be awarded on Friday, the freestyle competitions will begin on Saturday.
