The 1.3 billion population of China was behind Zi Lin Zhang to win the title of Miss World 2007, and that’s exactly what she did at the Miss World event held in Sanya, China. The 23 year old and 5 feet 9 inches tall beauty was born in Shi Jia Zhuang City in Hei Bei Province, China. When she’s not traveling or reading, she’s at the track keeping fit with 100 meter jump & hurdles and triple jumps. Talk about a workout regime!

With the 2008 Olympic Games being in Beijing, she’ll play the perfect hostess and face of China in it’s first foray as host city of the international sports competition.

That makes 2007 the official year of the Asian beauties with Zi Lin Zhang of China as Miss World 2007, and Miss Riyo Mori of Japan as Miss Universe.
