Prolific Zhang chasing Olympic dream

JINAN, Shandong province: Three gold, one silver and one bronze medal make world champion Zhang Lin the most successful swimmer at the 11th National Games.

However, that hefty haul does not satisfy the 22-year-old who has his sights firmly fixed on Olympic gold.

"My biggest goal is the 2012 London Games. I hope I won't miss the gold by another 0.58 seconds," said Zhang, who settled for a silver medal at the Beijing Olympics last August, beaten by Park Tae-hwan of South Korea by that slim margin in the men's 400m freestyle. "I hope through my years of effort I can make up for my regrets at the Beijing Games."
