Zhang Xiaoling or Zhang Xiao, born July 20, 1957 in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, is a Chinese competitive table tennis player.

In 1976, she developed a malign tumour in her right leg, which was subsequently amputated. In 1987, she won a gold medal at a national women's singles table tennis competition.[1]

Xiaoling represented China for the first time at the 1988 Summer Paralympics in Seoul, and won gold in the open event. She competed in every subsequent edition of the Summer Paralympics, and won at least two medals -one in the singles event, one in the team event, and in 1992 and 1996 one in the open event- on every occasion. She will be representing China again at the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing, but, for the first time, she will competed only in the singles.[1]
