China’s Peng Shuai says she is excited about playing the London Olympics, but not on grass at Wimbledon. Peng reached the fourth round of Wimbledon last year. "It will be held on grass and I don't like playing on it,” she told the New Straight Times. "Furthermore, it will be tough for me as there are no grass courts in China.? The Olympic Games is a big event for China and everyone in the national team will want to do well as winning medals mean a lot."
