Sun Tiantian said "After winning the women's doubles title at the 2004 Athens Olympics, I hoped to make the same breakthrough at the Slams. So to win the mixed doubles title is surprising."

Along with her new partner Yuan Meng, Sun Tiantian's next goal is to grab her second doubles title at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
