Very true. Wang Xin was not winning many titles and she looked like she was gone until Zhang Ning pulled her back to the National Squad and she had since developed into the so-called "foreigners beater", a fact which has been many times proven true when she would lose to other Chinese players like when she lost to Wang Yihan in the SF recently after beating Saina of India in the World Championship 2011 QF.
I just watched the replay of the Wang Xin - Tine Baun QF match in Li Ning CHN Masters 2011. It's almost like watching two men's singles playing each other,both have fierce attacking shots and killer smashes. Though Tine seems to have a more powerful smash,she is less consistent,less accurate,weaker in defense,and more temperamental;otherwise,her tournament results should match Wang's. As for Wang Xin,I feel she deserves much better tournament results than what she is getting,often losing to her teammates. Hope to see her winning more major championships - she can do it,still only 25 yrs old;Zhang Ning was 32 when she retired after gaining her second gold medal in Beijing Olympics.
Congrats to Wang Xin, winning third title in this year after MAS GP Gold & SIN SS Finally, she beat Yihan for the first time
Do what I do - copy and paste the Chinese characters and enter them into Wiktionary. Here are the results I got for Wang Xin: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E9%91%AB http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/汪 Hope that helps.
"Wang" is her surname normally doesn't has meaning, but for her case "Wang" can be sea or ocean. "Xin" is made up of 3 words, "gold". i.e. gold, gold and gold quite suited her career come to think of it.
Thank you, mrinalini and alany ! The best translation I could come up with on the basis of your info, is: "Ocean of true wealth." or depending on your interpretation, "vast, unending source of goodness." Sometimes, the intrinsic meaning gets lost in translation. I'm sure there may be a more fitting interpretation than mine...
