标题：The Olympian Who Is 61 Years Old—and Destroying Athletes Half Her Age

正文：As she unzipped her jacket, adjusted her knee strap and began stretching for her first table-tennis match of this Olympics, an odd sensation came over the most unlikely player on the floor.

It was strange because Ni, a former world champion, had seen this all before: the bright lights of international competition, the Olympic rings painted on the net, the raucous crowd ready to erupt for her. But this time, she felt the full weight of a nation on her shoulders. She knew that she would need to summon all of her experience to settle into the match.
