When Women’s Singles World No. 1 Tai Tzu Ying vs. Men’s Singles World No. 10 Wang Tzu Wei
Taipei: Children’s Day is a national holiday in Taiwan, and it was celebrated on April 4th.
World No. 10 men’s singles player Wang Tzu Wei recognized the Children’s Day by posting an interesting video of him competing against the current World No. 1 women’s singles player Tai Tzu Ying, of course, when they were both in elementary school.

Enjoy the cute video below from Wang (the kid in the white shirt):
