The Grand Slam of the Asia-Pacific to reach more Chinese fans through a new agreement
19 JANUARY Camisola William Carvalho Portugal , 2016 - BEIJING, CHINA – Sina Sports has entered into an official strategic collaboration with Tennis Australia for the Australian Open. At the beginning of the tournament, Sina Sports unveiled the “Official Mandarin Language Destination of the Australian Open” on its leading Chinese digital sports platform. The web address for the destination on Sina Sports is http:sports.sinatennisausopen16. A wide range of content will be available in Chinese, and will give Chinese fans substantially more access to the tournament than ever before. A host of special features will be made available only on the official site, including match highlights, a live streaming feed of a Chinese scoreboard, player interviews, and exciting content from the matches directed specifically at Sina Sports users in China. The destination is the result of a multi-year deal with Tennis Australia, which holds the broadcasting and marketing rights to the Grand Slam tournament.
In the last few years, tennis has been growing in popularity among Chinese fans. It is one of the most watched sports in China, alongside basketball and soccer. The rise of China’s most famous tennis star, Li Na, spurred on tremendous growth for the sport in China. It was at the 2010 Australian Open that Li Na, along with fellow Chinese player Zheng Jie, made it to the final four, the first ever final four berths for Chinese players at a Grand Slam tournament. Li Na broke into the final rounds a total of three times, finally taking the championship in the 2014 Australian Open. The world’s biggest tennis stars including Novak Djokovic, Maria Sharapova, Roger Federer, Serena Williams, and Rafael Nadal have become household names throughout China.
The collaboration with Tennis Australia is aimed to increase the exposure even further of the Australian Open, reaching more fans and consumers in China. In addition to the website, Sina Sports will promote the Australian Open throughout its far-reaching online platform, including special posts on multiple Sina Weibo microblogging channels. The collaboration is the latest in a series of creative partnerships undertaken by Sina Sports to develop foreign sports brands and events in China. Earlier this month, Sina Sports announced an extensive partnership with the UFC and launched UFC’s revamped official Chinese website. Last year, Sina Sports also became the exclusive broadcaster in China for International Premier Tennis League matches through 2016.

PARIS， Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- Former French Prime Minister Francois Fillon， favorite candidate of the center-right party for 2017 presidential race， has dominated the face-off with his challenger Alain Juppe， an Elabe survey released late Thursday showed.
According to the poll， 57 percent of 908 respondents said Fillon was the most convincing， and 71 percent of conservative and center-right voters considered him the winner against Juppe.
In a televised debate on Thursday， the two candidates showed great similarities in their economic proposals， which include raising retirement age and reducing public expenditure by cutting public service jobs.
However， Juppe， who was forced to overturn sliding popularity after first round defeat， tried to differ by attacking Fillon's plan to slash 500，000 posts in public services， which he said was unrealistic. He wants to reduce 250，000 posts by modernizing public services.
"Reform should not be a punishment but bring hope，" Juppe said.
Defending his "more radical project，" the winner of Sunday's conservative primaries' Fillon， retorted "I do not accept saying it's impossible."
"Alain Juppe does not really want to change things. He's staying within the system， he just wants to improve it，" he added.
On social issues and foreign policy， the two contenders quarrelled over multi-culturalism and whether France should cooperate with Russia to win the war against the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq.
"France is not a multi-cultural nation. I want the foreigners who come to our country to integrate. When we go to somebody's house， we don't try to take power，" Fillon said.
Campaigning for "happy identity，" Juppe saw the other face of the coin and pledged to consolidate the country's social model and respect diversity of French society that he called a factor of strength.
Juppe， 71， who has served as prime minister and foreign minister， portrayed himself as a modern centrist with moderate political rhetoric with which he tries to appease modern conservatives， centrists and even angry left-wing voters.
"I am a little surprised that， for the first time， the Russian head of state chooses his candidate (in French election)，" he said referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin's support for Fillon.
But for Fillon， the real danger is not Russia， the real danger is economy and it is called Asia.
