I did miss that reference amongst the usual wiki copy and paste
Don't really see its relevance
You can list the top 13 tennis players from any country. Only if they have won a Slam do they register on the world stage.
Li Na. That's it from China.
As for your 2 youngsters, good luck to them. I would refer you to my sentence above sta ...[text shortened]... er performance level and less time in court (3 vs 5 sets)
Anything meaningful to say on that?
As their games last half the time how can that work?
Note it was a thumb free friendly thread until the racistD64 showed up with the non relevant wiki links

Do they? I would imagine it is equal MATCHES, surely?
Take the thumbs down from D64 as a compliment
Obviously she/he has read my reply, cannot answer coherently (no change there), so puts a thumbs down up
and no engagement with your men v women standards in tennis
Maybe she/he is still looking for a 2nd half decent Chinese snooker player!

The post that was quoted here has been removedOK...so can you provide figures to compare arable land ( over here that equates to LOW population, as it is countryside) , population, area in some sort of table of , shall we say, 'forced' population density, from a reputable source, maybe in the form of the table that I called up from your beloved Wiki in 2 mins?
Did I say 'uniquely'? I don't think so. Am I missing some forum etiquette? Must be my woeful ignorance.
Oh, I see, re read my post. I ask the honest question ' is D64 saying China is UNIQUE in this', and am harangued for that!
At least D64 is conceding that her point is not unique to China ( I think ), and thence extremely weak.
But I could just be woefully ignorant...
Bloody Cambridge, eh? Take anyone in!

I would also say that China seemed to have little problem in producing athletics training facilities and swimming pools to prepare their sportspersons for an assault on World records and gold medals in these sports in the first part of the 21st century
Which seems to have sadly stalled recently. Hmmm. Wonder why?

China seems to have suffered the most
Maybe just a coincidence

Concentrating on those sweet Chinese athletes and swimmers
Still not seeing much engagement on your thread's title from D64
