Olympics - Chinese are go go

It is not clear where the medals are going for the host nation at the Olympics but the news wires for the last two months have been filled with pictures of ceremonies, welcoming robots and now these China girls practising their go go dancing on the beach, in case you needed to know what a troupe of Chinese go go dancers look like or might have mistaken them for primitive natives beating their breasts in the hope of invoking some holy spirits,

One possible prediction for the women’s tennis doubles though could be Taiwan. The pairing of Chan Yung Jan and Chuang Chia Jung picked up the women’s title at the Los Angeles WTA last week. They might be worth watching especially if the Williams sisters don’t agree to compete for the USA. The odds are not up yet because each nation’s team has yet to be finalised and can be subject to withdrawals but worth keeping an eye on.
