"Watching the stars in action at world title events as they execute their skills brings admiration and draws your breath away but if there is one player who produces both those responses, more than any other, it is Iran’s Zohreh Etezadosaltaneh."

"No, she is not going to challenge the world’s best, Zhang Yining's mantle as the best female player in the world is not in danger, but the manner in which Zohreh Etezadosaltaneh plays table tennis is remarkable."

"She has no arms; she plays by holding the racket in her toes".

"Furthermore, I'm sure she has the admiration of Zhang Yining."

"On Friday 15th October 2009, she demonstrated her skills at the Opening Ceremony for the Capital’s Women’s Table Tennis Tournament staged in Iran to celebrate a Week of Sport and Physical Education."
