The team's director, Li Quanqiang, says Zhao's return will be in time for
China's final preparation for the Beijing Olympics, scheduled to open on
August 8 next year, where the team looks forward to defend its title.
A correspondent of The Beijing News witnessed Zhao working hard in a
training session on Wednesday in Beilun in eastern China's Zhejiang
Province, with the bandage around her knee removed.
Li Quanqiang says Zhao's physical strength has been recovering smoothly
and her training will get back on track.
Zhao, a key player in Chen Zhonghe's team, was injured in?the leg prior
to the 2004 Olympic Games.
Her injury got worse during the game against the United States, which
sidelined Zhao in the games in Athens where the Chinese women volleyball
team re-claimed the Olympic title after a 20-year wait.
