Anniversary of historic episode passes baton of goodwill to next generation

ONTARIO, California — The Ontario Convention Center buzzed with excitement on Saturday as hundreds of players competed in the 2023 US Open Table Tennis Championships.

The tournament attracted players from around the world to the southern Californian city of Ontario. Among them were Wu Bohan and Zhang Yuwen, representing Peking University.

Donning vibrant red jerseys, the pair teamed up in the mixed doubles competition. For the young students, however, the tournament was more about fostering goodwill than winning titles.
