"We have won the short distances like 500m, where our power is best," Yang
said.
"In distance races, they did a better job. We have a lot of room to improve
our endurance training, to do a better job."
But when it comes to preparing for the 2008 Olympics, Yang sees nothing that
China could do better than what is already being prepared.
"Our people, we're ready. There are two years to go but we're ready. People
are excited for it to happen," Yang said. "You will be surprised. I'm very proud
of what we have done.
"I have one more year of school to go and then I hope to work on the 2008
Olympics and welcome everybody. I'm very much looking forward to 2008. It's very
huge for China.
"It's a great opportunity to show the world how great
China is. Sport is a way to inspire people. I'm sure we'll do a good job."
