Rick is joined by American table tennis player, Lily Zhang at the US Smash in Las Vegas.

Zhang is one of the American hopes at this big World Table Tennis event.

A six-time US national champion in women’s singles. Zhang has won the US national championship in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2022. In 2011, she was a bronze medalist in women’s singles and women’s team at the Pan American Games and won the women’s doubles title at the Qatar Peace and Sport Cup. She is currently a member of the United States National Women’s team.

From a young age, Zhang showed promising skill. When she was 7 years old, Dennis Davis, the president and head coach of the Palo Alto Table Tennis Club and the North American representative of the junior commission of International Table Tennis Federation, began training her. When she was 11, Zhang made the U.S. Cadet Team. By age 12, Zhang became the youngest player to ever make the U.S. Women’s Team.

Great to talk to Lily.
