Ping-Pong Prodigy Counts Bill Gates, Warren Buffett as BFFs
Written by Pat's Papers | Monday, 30 July 2012 8:02 AM

Ariel Hsing’s two BFFs are named Warren and Bill. Last names? Buffett and Gates. The 16-year-old ping-pong prodigy and her best friends are the subject Mike Vaccaro’s entertaining New York Post column this morning. Hsing, who’s competing in the London Games, met Gates when he invited her to a birthday party he was throwing for Buffett. Both men are ping-pong enthusiasts. And Hsing clobbered both of them—she was 9 at the time. Says Gates: “I’ve never won a point off her that she didn’t let me win. And I have an illegal serve.”
