from what boggo said Li-nig will give clothes to anyone ranked inside the top 250 (or maybe 200) with other suppliers hard to come by right now its prob why they have gone for it. also Li-Nings kit was pretty good last year - the look on Alex's face when he opened the kit bag up thsi time was priceless! i asked if they'd sent him girls stuff by mistake.

There does seem to be a whole host of players wearing Li Ning clothing - noticed it at the Dallas Challenger as well.
They're obviously trying to make their mark outside China this year, banking on one of the Challenger players they sponsor hitting the big time. It looked blue and yellow to me, Count, hence the question - I'll obviously have to look more carefully if the stream comes back.
And Boggo breaks
Quite surprised he's sponsored by Li Ning - that other Chinese company Trud Ging would appear tobe a better fit.

the design is a blue kit with pink band around the bottom. the shorts are cream with a pink band around the top. there is also a vertical yellow stripe.

Ah, there's a pic at http://www.gemaxopen.com/page/photo-gallery/, I see what you mean - this version is quite ok (if a bit garish) but reverse those colours and it must be quite a sight!
