Translation of a report in german newspaper:
Chinese rivals for Savchenko/Szolkowy
The german two-times world-champions in pairskating Aliona Savchenko/Robin Szolkowy get more rivals for the olympic season: The two-time olympic bronze medalists Xue Shen/Hongbo Zhao from China have officially announced their comeback in Beijing.
"It was always our dream to become olympic champions. Because we can still fight for gold we hope to realise this dream" Zhao said to the chinese TV-station CCTV in Beijing. The couple practises since one month intensively and seems to have just a new free program.
Shen/Zhao are the first chinese pair which won a world-championship and became world-champions in 2002, 2003 and 2007. 2002 and 2006 they won the bronze medal at the olympics and since 2007 they only skated shows.
Savchenko/Szolkowy, who are top-favourits for the olympic-title in february in Vancouver since they won the world-championships in Los Angeles, react cool about the comeback of the 30- and 35-year old Chinese. "We don't get crazy because of this. Their time is over. They skate perfect but you have to know when it's over" Savchenko commented. "It's a big step to skate complete programs with all the elements again" Szolkowy said. "But I'm happy about this. If there are more competitors it will be a better competition."
Like the pair from Chemnitz Shen/Zhao want to start at the Grand-Prix-competitions in autumn but the two pairs will meet in the final the first time if both qualify. The Germans will start at the first and last competition in Paris and Canada, the Chinese will skate in Beijing and the USA.
