We're not in Beijing anymore

China announced its delegation on Tuesday - it's good, but China Daily tells you why not to expect a repeat of 2008.
Despite an expected decline from Beijing 2008, China remains a legitimate favorite to finish high on the medal table again at the London Olympics. After topping the last Games with a massive haul of 51 gold, 21 silver and 28 bronze medals, China has a large target on its back in London and is highly unlikely to repeat that feat on foreign soil and waters. Still, the Asian powerhouse has vowed to finish in the top three after expanding its prowess beyond its traditional strengths like table tennis, badminton and diving. World-class performances from hurdler Liu Xiang, who recently tied the world record (in a tailwind), and long-distance swimmer Sun Yang have shown China's ability to win medals in more mainstream events.
A group of tennis players, led by the nation's first Grand Slam winner, Li Na, is set to challenge for medals in the singles and doubles events at the All-England Club.
