On his senior debut at the Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, Yang added another individual gold to his career tally by leading the medal haul for China in the 10 m air rifle with a score of 209.6 points. Yang's win also helped his fellow shooters Cao Yifei and Liu Tianyou deliver a first-place finish over the rest of the field in the team event, finishing with an aggregated tally of 1886.4.[8][9]
