Underage?






He Kexin was on China's Olympic team in Beijing 2008 and London 2009. Her passport indicates that she is old enough for the Olympics. But some reports show the she might be as young as fourteen years old. All of the others, along with He, live in Beijing. In Beijing, she was able to complete her goal, but only because of a tiebreak. It was then when she realized she was the newest member of the national team.
