Some Olympians are not only good at athletics but lucky in love too.
Chinese basketball player Sun Yue has an enviable relationship with his supermodel girlfriend Gu Chen, from Shandong province. Her blog records their romantic going-ons every day.
Gymnastics prince Li Ning, who featured in the Opening Ceremony, has his princess Chen Yongyan. He dedicated his gold medal at the Los Angeles Olympic Games to her as an engagement present.
Chinese soccer player Li Weifeng's rumored girlfriend is TV host Li Xia. Despite, or more likely because of their high profiles they will not comment on their relationship.
No problems for Yang Wei on this score. He is one of the happiest men at the Beijing Olympics. The all-around gymnastic gold medal winner has told anyone who will listen he will marry fiancee Yang Yun after the Games.
