On track for success

China finished with its best medal haul at a World Athletics Championships in 26 years by collecting three gold, three silver and three bronze between Sept 28 and Oct 6 in Doha. There were plenty of other positives on the track too, with sprinter Xie Zhenye (pictured) becoming the first Chinese to crack the 20-second barrier in 200m by clocking 19.88 at a London Diamond League meet on July 21 to smash the previous Asian record by 0.09 sec.
