| China's
diving dominance in doubt (China
Daily) Good Photos |
Yu Fen, one of the heroes behind China's
long-time success in diving, suggests the current ailing
national team might be headed the wrong way in trying
to recapture past glory. While reluctant to read too
much into the team's less-than-expected performance
at the just-concluded World Cup in Athens where they
won five gold medals, Yu, coach of quadruple Olympic
gold medallist Fu Mingxia, thinks it's high time the
squad found a common training goal. ... Coming
off a four-month isolated training camp, the Chinese
divers still didn't show decisive improvement. |
