China is attending the world gymnastics championships in Aarhus, Denmark. It's goal, apart from winning, is to show that it is the leading Olympic nation as it readies itself for the Beijing Olympics 2008.
The Chinese male team got off to a flying start yesterday and won the team title, beating Russia, Japan and the USA.
Yang Wei said:
"This world championships was good practice for the Olympics and we feel we are now well prepared to take gold.
Now that we have established a good team, we don't want to stop here."
The women compete today.
