UPHOLDING OLYMPIC SPIRIT

At the Tokyo Olympics, China won 38 golds, 32 silvers and 18 bronzes, equalling its haul of gold medals at London 2012 for the best performance at an overseas Olympics.

Despite missing out on a medal in Tokyo, 32-year-old sprinter Su Bingtian has been hailed as a hero by many Chinese sports fans for bettering the men's 100m Asian record to 9.83 seconds.

"There is room for improvement for me," Su said of his breakthrough one month ago. "Many say that is the limit for the Asian, but I don't think so."
