The Proximus Diamond Games are broadcasted by more than six countries and the potential viewers will amount to 636 million. In the quarterfinals held on February 15, the Chinese athlete Na Li defeated Sofia Arvidsson by 7 to 5 and 6 to 4.
Na Li and her teammate Ting Li were the first couple to win the champion of WTA tournament. Tennis was always dominated by the western athletes. But as China develops gradually, Chinese athletes begin to get better result in more and more fields, such as long distance run, fencing and hurdle. This does not only show China’s progress in sports, but also shows her progress in the comprehensive national strength.
