With three gold medals and a bronze at the Asiad, the former Olympic champion has rediscovered his confi dence and now has his sights set on next year’s World Championships and the 2012 Lon- don Olympic Games. “It has not been easy,” Teng said of his GYMNASTICS recent struggles in the sport. “It’s a new start for me. Th e gold medals have given me much confi dence as I look towards next year’s World Championships and the 2012 Olympics.” In Guangzhou, Teng helped the men’s squad win the team gold for the 10th successive time. He was also crowned the all-around champion. On the individual apparatus, he claimed gold on the pommel horse and bronze on the horizontal bar. He missed the podium in the parallel bars due to a fall. “Th is might be my last Asian Games. Winning these gold medals here, I have no regrets at the Asiad,” he said. Th e Asian Games have been a lucky competition for Teng as he rose to international prominence at the Busan Asian Games eight years ago.
