To be honest, would you really like to have a 57 year old represent the US at the olympics? That would not be good advertisement for US table tennis.

If an old table tennis icon like Seemiller would have earned his way to the Olympics by winning the trials at age 57 it would have been a great news story that would have made headlines for sure (not easy to do with table tennis-related news in the country). Americans love underdogs.

What makes you think that? Razvan is the third most common name in the USA after James and John. Don't they have the same names as us in Kiwiland?
