61-year-old table tennis grandma still ‘experienced’ takes on ‘granddaughter-like’

Luxembourg’s veteran Ni Xia Lian is playing against Korea’s Shin Yu-bin in the second round of the women’s singles table tennis at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics held in Tokyo, Japan on July 25, 2021.

The so-called ‘Table Tennis Grandma’, Li Sha-Lian (61) of Luxembourg, is a hot topic.

Li Sha-Lian defeated a Turkish player in the round of 64 of the women’s singles table tennis competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics held in Paris, France on the 28th and advanced to the round of 32.

Li Xia Lian will face China’s Sun Yingsha (24) for a spot in the round of 16 at 5 PM on the 31st, Korean time. Sun Yingsha is ranked number 1 in the world and is a strong contender for the title. The age difference between her and Li Xia Lian is 37 years.

Li Xia Lian is a Chinese Luxembourgish national table tennis player. He played for the Chinese national table tennis team in the 1980s and won four medals at the World Championships. At that time, table tennis was not an Olympic sport, so Li Xia Lian could not compete in the Olympics. Table tennis became an official sport starting from the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

After retiring from the Chinese national team in 1986, he played in Germany and settled in Luxembourg in 1991 to become a national table tennis player. Luxembourg has participated in six Olympics in total.

Li Xia Lian became even more famous when she faced South Korea’s Shin Yu-bin (born 2004), who was 17 years old at the time, at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. This was the biggest matchup between players with the biggest age gap at the Tokyo Olympics. She lost 4-3 to Shin Yu-bin, who was 41 years younger. 파워볼사이트
