Amazing story! Love seeing diversity in age at the Olympics. The Chileans call her table tennis grandma
She looks 90
This is a way cool story. Thanks op.
She’s gonna get cooked
Ganbare obachian
Has she played yet, and if so, how’d she do?
She is my favourite athlete this Olympics.
A reminder for you all about the 54-year-old Spaniard that beat the 18-year-old American in Rio.
The greek table tennis player is a 44yr old dentist. Panagiotis giotis
That’s pretty cool. I wish table tennis was bigger in the US. It looks like fun.
I love these kinds of stories. They are what the Olympics is all about.
So you’re telling me there’s still time for 26-year-old me? Bring on 2056 where I’ll be representing…San Marino or Palau.
Haven’t read the article, what is an Olympic underdog exactly? Being older doesn’t make someone an underdog, many of the equestrians are in their 40s and 50s
Wow, what an inspiration! This just goes to show that with enough determination, you can achieve anything at any age.
