I saw the story linked from Inside Gymnastics on Twitter.
… The 29-year-old spearheaded China to the men’s team title and collected all-around individual to cap his prolific career. Yang was also a member in China’s win of men’s team in the Sydney Olympics. Before culminating in Beijing, Yang also won seven world titles and two Olympic silvers in an international career spanning13 years. …
Yang refused to reveal his plans for the immediate future. …
Yang married his long-term girlfriend Yang Yun, a bronze medallist in the uneven bars at the Sydney Games, last November in a lavish ceremony that drew some criticism from his compatriots.
