The problem is that right now over in Beijing the women's table tennis venue is drawing next to no one. So, what do you do to put butts in the seats? Make it sexy, people.
“We are trying to push the players to use skirts and also nicer shirts, not the shirts that are made for men, but ones with more curves,” International Table Tennis Federation vice president Claude Bergeret said.
Apparently too many women's table tennis players wear baggy, comfortable clothes. I'll have to take the article's word on that, seeing as I've watched exactly zero women's table tennis during these Olympic Games.
And while I'm all for making table tennis sexier, this seems rather bizarre to me. Isn't the point of the Olympics to win medals, not be a fashion show?
Anyway, I think the solution to this problem is fairly simple. Below is the Chinese women's table tennis team.
They all look like nice ladies (expect for that one guy, at least, I hope it's a guy), but perhaps the International Table Tennis Federation disagrees with me. So how about the Victoria's Secret models instead?
I'm sure Gisele's backhand sucks, but I have a feeling the stands will be packed. Get on it Table Tennis Federation. There's still some time left in these Olympic Games for you to completely sell out.
