Chinese-Chilean table tennis athlete Zhiying Zeng is set to make her Olympic debut at the age of 58. Zeng will represent Chile while competing as one of the oldest athletes taking part in the Paris Games. Also known by her nickname “Auntie Tania”, Zeng started playing table tennis when she was nine years old and was already a professional by the time she was 13. When she moved to Chile, she set aside her table tennis career to support her family. Thirty years later, Zeng was motivated to return to the sport because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
