At the first ANOC Gala AwardsDinner in Bangkok on Friday night, Li was awarded the honor for her match winning performance against world number one and fellow compatriot, Ding Ning.
Li, born in 1988, also won gold in the women’s team table tennis but describes her performance in the London 2012 table tennis women’s singles Olympic final as the very best of her career, according to ANOC.
She said: “Winning the title at London 2012 was the proudest moment in my career as an athlete, and one that I will always remember. Training and hard work are the day in, day out, realities of being an athlete – these are what make winning a gold medal such a rewarding achievement.”
After receiving the trophy and certification from the Vice-President of ANOC for Oceania Robin Mitchell, Li also expressed her appreciation to ANOC and the Chinese Olympic Committee for “their never-ending support”.
