ＢＢＣ：Olympics 2004, Stars to watch- Women: ZHAO RUIRUI & LOGAN TOM
Zhao is key to China's hopes of winning gold for the first time since 1984.
At a little under 6ft 5in, she is a huge presence in the team and has been a key part of thEIr recent rise to dominance in the women's game that most recently included winning the 2003 World Cup.
Be it blocking at the net or spiking the sets from captain Feng Kun, she is the hub of all her team's best play.
Zhao's father pushed her to play basketball in her youth, but by her teens she had turned to volleyball and has never looked back.
The 21-year-old first came to prominence three years ago when she finished top scorer at the Asian Championships, where she also picked up the best player award.
Despite her all-round court craft and speed, it is her height that draws the greatest interest and no doubt she will be dubbed "The Great Wall" before the medals are handed out.

赵是中国从1984年第一次获得奥运金牌以来（再次获得金牌）希望的关键。 拥有接近6英尺5英寸高度，她是队中的关键人物，而且是中国队近来复苏重新统治女子排坛包括获得最近的2003年世界杯冠军的重要因素。
在网前拦网，或者得到队长冯坤的配合扣球，她都是是队中的灵魂和中心。
赵的父亲在她小时候让她去打篮球，但在十几岁的时候她就改练排球并且再也没有回头过。
21岁的赵开始有突出的表现，在三年前的亚洲锦标赛得到了最高分并且获得了最佳球员奖。
尽管在场上拥有全面的技术和速度，但是她的高度仍然是大家关注的焦点。毫无疑问，在奖章没有颁发之前，她已经被授与：“网上长城”的称号了。
