    The way China structure their athletes is pretty smart. Now that you mentioned Tian Tao as a mentor/guide to Liu, this can be seen in a variety of sports as the younger men/women to take on the #1 spot once their best athletes start to fall off from their primes. As much as having your original #1 go against the top competitors to beat them out of having to battle them in the finals, if not that, wear them down physically and mentally.
