Mellisa Wu is Ready For Beijing

Will Australia's Melissa Wu win a gold medal in Beijing? I was surprised when she beat the Chinese divers during the 2008 Canada Cup Grand Prix. According to olympics.com.au Melissa is looking forward to the Beijing Games:

Fresh from a gold and silver at the 2008 Canada Cup Grand Prix, Melissa Wu is in great form to take on her toughest opponents in Beijing.

“I was really happy with the way I went in Canada, especially taking home the gold. I was up against some of the strongest competition, like the Chinese Divers, so it was good to get that result,” Wu said.

The pint-sized 16-year-old who stands at just 137cm in height and 33kg makes history as the youngest Australian Diver ever to qualify for an Olympic Games.
