    No. Milroy is sponsored by Black Knight, (hence the Black Knight logo on his jersey). He uses a PC-20...good little racquet. Personally I prefer the PC-V80. But both are good!

    In fact she beat Jiang Yanjiao in 2004 WJBC and eventually claimed the WS title beating Lu Lan. She was magnificently fast but still couldn't match the experience of XXF in last year's WC. A talent player I would say, hope she can improve.

    Cheng's weakness is shots into her backhand corner. She invariably returns them using her backhand and the majority of shots she plays are drops to the net. She rarely clears them in the opponents rear court. However, given her positioning when she plays the backhand, there is no way she can see where her opponent is... she's just playing the shot blind. This leads to the opponent having many winners off her backhand shots.

    Against opponents of lower standard, she is fast enough to run back from the backhand corner to save the shot, but against higher level opponents whose shots are just that much tighter and closer to the lines, she has less chance.

    Last year's WC, XXF didn't exploit Cheng's backhand corner that much, but current opponents seem to have wisened up.
