盖茨大赞。
Today on the 29th July 2012 saw the one of the best table tennis matches in Olympic history when USA's Ariel Hsing took on China's World number 2 Li Xiaoxia! Ariel Hsing (below) at a mere age of 16 years just produced the performance of a lifetime taking 2 sets off Li Xioaxia in the Excel Arena! Li Xioaxia won by 4 sets to 2 with scores: 11-4, 9-11, 11-6, 6-11, 11-8, 11-9 at the London 2012 Olympics. The futures bright for Ariel Hsing of the USA!

Ariel's supreme backhand attack dominated the table against Li Xiaoxia. Throughout the match it was level, both players producing the highest quality of table tennis! Li just clinched the last two sets 11-8, 11-9. The Chinese super stars experience prevailed. Li Xioaxia will now face Park Miyoung of Korea in the last 16!
Ariel will go away from the London 2012 Olympics with her head held high. Ariel still has the team event which will be played next week

腾讯体育讯 面对仅有16岁的美国华裔小将邢延华，李晓霞(微博)遭遇险情，经过六局苦战方涉险晋级16强。本场比赛的苦战，也给李晓霞的奥运之旅敲响了警钟。从另一种意义来说，在经过了这样一番波折后仍能晋级，对李晓霞来说并不全是坏事，她可以通过这场比赛，来认识到奥运会的困难程度，以及磨练出强大的精神力。
李晓霞曾征战过世乒赛、世界杯等多项国际大赛。但出战奥运会，却是大姑娘上花轿头一遭。本届奥运会上，中国女乒选择新人担纲。两名单打主力丁宁(微博)和李晓霞，均没有过征战奥运会的经历。诚然，这两名球员风头正劲，是中国女乒队中状态最好的球员，却也担负着一定的风险。
在过去两年的比赛里，李晓霞经受住了考验。在今年的多特蒙德世乒赛团体赛上，李晓霞在半决赛和决赛里，均是出任球队的第一主力。2011年的世乒赛单项比赛里，李晓霞依然有着突出的发挥，她不但打进了女单项目的决赛，还同郭跃(微博 博客)搭档夺取了女双的金牌。由此可见，除了风头无人能及的丁宁外，李晓霞基本坐稳了中国女乒二把交椅的位置。
在经历了众多大赛的考验后，李晓霞也进入到了中国女乒的单打阵容当中。然而，奥运会的重要性和所面临的压力，绝非其它的赛事能够相提并论。以往，中国乒乓球征战奥运时，大多是由有奥运经验的老将压阵，通过以老带新来进行阵容搭配。然而，本届奥运会上，中国却派出了两名新兵蛋子来征战女单项目，这不得不说是一个不小的冒险。
幸好，李晓霞在实力上明显占据优势，即便遭对手的穷追猛打，最终仍能有惊无险的顺利过关。对于李晓霞来说，这场比赛的苦战，也给她提了一个醒，让她明白了奥运赛场的艰险。能够在逆境中胜出，顶住心理压力，这对李晓霞来说，是一个很好的磨练过程。中国乒乓球队打遍天下无敌手，之前的几次折戟，大多是因为心理因素，就如2004年奥运会男单决赛王皓(微博 博客)的败北。早些解决问题，克服轻敌及患得患失的思想，对李晓霞来说，无疑是通往冲击金牌的道路上，所需要解决的问题。在赢了这场球之后，相信李晓霞下面的比赛，也会变得好走很多。
