"Ping Pong Champ falls head over heels for Jay" was the caption.
Susan Sarandon visits Jay Leno on his show and there is a bit when she uses a double to play tt against Leno. The pretty double is supposed to be a top rated player but lost a few points not knowing how to play against pips/junk rubber. She learns and uses more spin on the serves. Then she fell after a smash. A little embarrassing but she is hot her clumsiness makes her cute; so who cares. You gotta watch this. Catuion, a little commercial in the beginning. http://thejaylenoshow.com/video/clips/j ... =thefilter

The video is not available from my location so I went to have a look on YouTube & got the info on Susan's 'double'. Her name is Soo-Yeon Lee.

I think I have heard of that name. She is a Korean Chopper!

Now I remember Varghese mentioning her in the past: http://mytabletennis.net/forum/forum_po ... 22675&PN=1

This is a video of Soo from the 2007 US Open. She attracts the crowd. She is around 2400 now. In 2007 she was around 1900.

I haven't seen her playing a complete game. Varghese, have you seen any? How her game? Like some of her countryman, or more modern like Fan Ying of China.

This is so Coooll !

I understand that Soo is a collegiate player, and she has problem playing with pips-out player.

Does she play with long pips? This may not be entirely correct but if you play with long pips you should more or less know about pips-out rubbers & roughly know how to play against them (nothing to do with winning though).
