China vows to clinch fencing gold at Beijing Olympics
|
China, who took only one fencing gold in Olympic history through Luan Jvjie in women's foil in Los Angeles in 1984, vowed to clinch the second Olympic title in Beijing next year, said a senior fencing official here Wednesday.
Wang Jian, the leader of both the Chinese national fencing team and the Universiade squad here, told Xinhua, "Our aim is to win at least a gold medal at the Beijing Olympics and we have that strength."
After Luan Jvjie， China grabbed a string of silver medals in several Olympic Games.
Wang noted, "We must study on new drilling methods and let our fencers compete in world high-level competitions as many as possible to accumulate experience."
"Chinese top fencers did not come to Bangkok for the Universiade. Instead, they will compete in the Asian Championships to be held this month in China and the World Championships in Russia in September," Wang said.
"The Asian and the world championships are so crucial for ace fencers to collect enough points to qualify for the Beijing Olympics," Wang noted.
"The age of many world-class fencers exceeds the 28-year-old ceiling set by the Universiade. That is another reason for their absence," he added.
