Remember that wide-eyed kid who didn’t even know what an Olympic champion does? Meet Lin Shidong (@林詩棟y), the table tennis prodigy who’s taking the world by storm – one backhand smash at a time!
In an exclusive interview with ‘Sports Close-Up’, the 19-year-old phenom opened up about his incredible journey from fishing villages to global podiums. ‘When I first asked my coach what Olympic champions actually do, everyone laughed,’ Lin recalls with a grin. ‘But now I wake up every morning knowing exactly what that gold medal means.’
What makes Lin’s story so compelling isn’t just his rapid rise in rankings (though going from #200 to top 20 in two years is mind-blowing). It’s the raw determination behind those baby-faced features. Teammates joke that the training center’s floor knows his sweat better than his own mother – and the numbers prove it:
- 6am daily drills before breakfast
- 8 hours of practice even on ‘rest’ days
- 3 broken paddles from sheer force in 2023 alone
The full interview reveals heartbreaking moments too – like when teenage Lin video-called his parents from the national team dorm, pretending not to notice their cramped one-room home in the background. ‘That’s when I promised myself they’d never worry about money again,’ he shares quietly.
Now ranked among China’s ‘Next Big Four’ table tennis stars, Lin’s eyes still light up like that island boy when talking about Paris 2024: ‘I want to hear our national anthem play because of me.’ Cue the goosebumps!
