Athens: Fukuhara Ai (Japanese Ping Pong player)


Fukuhara Ai is the Japanese Ping Pong player, who is only 15-year-old. She started ping-pong at age of 3, won 3 straight years for Japanese tournament (8-year-old or younger), won 7 straight year for same tournament (12-year-old or younger). Won Japanese Junior tournament at the age of 13. She was selected for 2002 Pusan Asia Tournament; youngest player to be selected all time. She has been Japanese heroine since she was very young. I hope she will win a medal. She just won second round, advancing to third round.
