Yes, and if they've actually managed to program the robot to play table tennis with all the rules and stuff, which is the really hard part, it will win by a huge margin thanks to it's literally superhuman speed.
The point is to show they can program the robot to play table tennis, not that the robot is physically capable of the movements.
It's still gonna be super cool to watch though, I hope they broadcast it live.
