Hurdler champion Liu Xiang has been the center of attention in recent Olympic news after he had walked away from his most anticipated race.
Liu Xiang has been the center of attention since the 2004 Athens Olympics where he became the first Chinese man to win an athletics gold in the 110m hurdles. He has also set a world record in 2006 and captured a world championship in 2007. Liu then became more than an athlete but a hero to China.
