China has three young pairs with potential for the coaches to work on, He Jiting/ Tan Qiang, Zhou Haodong/ Han Chengkai and HKX/ZSW. With proper grooming they should make it in 2 or 3 years.. Richi always do well in NZ. IMHO the odds are against HYX. Hope he proves me wrong. After SYQ's defeat yesterday the Chinese coaches must have studied STZ's syllabus closely and came out with a counter syllabus. Glad the counter syllabus worked for him although they did not have the luxury of time to rote-train him. Richii's syllabus is in Japanese and is difficult for the Chinese coaches to comprehend. It will be an uphill task for HYX tomorrow.
