Ping Pong

I played a little ping pong last week, but it was nothing like this. They need to play with a high visibility ball; it’s hard to follow the action. Here’s a link to a story about the young challenger:

At 15, Landers is the youngest player to win the men’s national singles championship. He overcame a three-games-to-one deficit in the best-of-seven final on Dec. 19 in Las Vegas, where controversy almost derailed his bid. Six of the eight quarterfinalists defaulted after protesting what they considered to be insufficient prize money. Landers was ushered straight to the final, where he defeated his higher-rated opponent, 26-year-old Samson Dubina.
