Top youngsters on show in Nanjing

NANJING: When Zheng Jie took up tennis, at the age of 10 with a local youth team in Sichuan province, she had to share one coach with more than 20 children on a solitary court.

Most of the time she spent her training sessions hitting a ball against a wall.

So, when the 26-year-old saw a group of children in crisp uniforms being coached by international coaches, person-to-person, she could not help but feel a little "jealous".
