Chinese Taipei: Olympics bound
The biggest story of World Championships 2019 will be the astonishing performance of Chinese Taipei.
That’s the name recognized by the China (PRC) for events like Olympic Games.

Chinese Taipei last qualified to the Olympic Games in 1964, also held in Tokyo, where they placed 17th. The team has two World medals in history; the silver on Pommel Horse won by Lee Chih-Kai‘s silver medal on Pommel Horse last year in Doha came 25 years after a silver on Vault from Feng Chih Chang.
