World Athletics President Sebastian Coe has spoken highly of Chinese athletes' performance at the Tokyo Olympic Games.
"Well, China continues to make great progress and that is important for our sport. They invest a lot in athletics and that's important for us. And they are great hosts of our events and long may that remain the case. It is important that they also focus on having great athletes that will excite the local populations into wanting to take up the sport. So if you look at the progress in the last decade, it has been terrific, and it is across not just track, it's clearly across field as well, endurance and short distance."
