Another busy day at the Asian Games as we are into the final countdown ahead of the opening ceremonies on Friday evening. Among the early highlights, hopefully, for China will be the initial Wushu competition, where one of the countries top medal hopes will look to earn the first gold medal at home.

Yuan Xiaochao, one of China's most acclaimed names in Wushu, is warming up at the Nansha Gymnasium, the competition venue for Wushu events.

Yuan is considered the favorite to win the first gold medal for China in Changquan on Friday morning and he says he's in top form.

Yuan will have to miss the opening ceremonies...but it's all part of ensuring he will be in top form.

"Although I will miss the opening ceremony as I need to prepare for the next day's competition, I will cheer for the ceremony along with my teammates on TV."
