We are not very far away from Beijing Olympics 2008, the expectations from the participants are high and every country is trying its best to get more medals then they achieved last time. in these 4 years we have seen quite a few professionals retire from their game and some new faces joining the game.
Young blood is joining in the sports and we can clearly see the records tumbling like anything. One of the reason of this has been the aggressiveness and the never say die attitude of the young competitors. While in longer games experience still holds the key to success, in shorter version these new comers are clearly edging out the older guys.
Having said that one will have to agree that there is only one rule in the game and that is that the show must go on. Young blood will always replace the older one and in the process try to learn what their seniors can tell them.
