How China Disappeared a Tennis Superstar (still missing)

[@CULTTENNIS]

Watch Second Serve on Nebula today! go.nebula.tv/culttennis

[@haochengzhai7156]

Falsely smearing information, Twitter blocked Trump, and then Trump disappeared in this world?

[@wj7867]

"despite maintaining the boycott for over a year..." Huh? As you know, the WTA never had ANY boycott of China. The ONLY reason WTA events were not held in China was that the CCP disallowed them. As soon as the CCP changed that restriction, the WTA simply stopped lying. They didn't end a boycott; they stopped lying about their (non-existent) boycott.

your dedication to raising the relevance of human rights stories that are tennis related is inspiring. the only sports channel that I've seen do this consistently and without wavering. Thanks a lot for shedding some light on all of these stories, especially this one. We all pray for Shuai. Keep up the great work!

Everyone seems to have forgotten about her. No doubt she is living under very restrictive circumstances with threats to her family if she says a word. It’s quite possible she is in custody

You think she’s actually alive? If they’re going to do that, they might as well make her make videos saying she’s just retired and wants privacy

[@Paperbagman555]

One of your best videos. Really sad how this has been dragged out almost two years and we still can’t be sure of her safety. She’d have to probably leave china forever if we’re to know the truth

[@JiraiyaSama86]

Thank you for raising awareness again, since most of the world seems to have only a short-term memory. Unfortunately, many still don't realize, this is exactly how China does things in every faucet (I can think of so many examples), and since most of the world so heavily depend on cheap Chinese consumer goods and Chinese market, China holds leverage. We need to speed up decoupling, like seriously.

In China is normal to have what is called a "second wife" (二奶, er nai) well known by the official wife as it was this case.

[@stevebradley8862]

Nothing justifies Peng's disappearance and its clearly inappropriate behavior by a married government official. Let her leave the country and visit friends or a tournament to show she isn't under house arrest. From the Guardian UK: "Peng had posted an essay to Weibo in early November, describing an on-again-off-again consensual affair with the then 75-year-old, and an incident in which he allegedly pressured her into having sex after inviting her to his house to play tennis with him and his wife. Amid what she described as “complicated feelings”, they allegedly rekindled the affair, until an argument and his failure to meet her shortly before the post." Could it be that "sexual assault" may be applied too broadly here given her "mixed feelings" that include her disappointment in being jilted by this guy? Where is the evidence of force - especially physical force or threat. It sounds more like a manipulative jerk official only interested in sex and a younger woman who has developed some romantic feelings and also feels regret and used now.

The WTA & ITF also made contact with her. Funny to me that people always ask the WTA and ITF to talk to peng shaui and make sure she’s safe when their mind is already made that they’re not gonna believe she’s safe no matter what. Why bother ask about her safety then?? Anyway, I am glad tennis is going back to china. At least they won’t discriminate against players based on their nationality and deny them entry like the xenophobic European tournaments did recently.

[@FF_AlohaEdition]

That's disgusting. The guy use his power and influence to attract a naive up and coming star to have sexual relation. When he ended the relationship, years passed and she learned what she did was not right. I'm not to say she is in the wrong for communicating with him again but did she really think all he want was to be friends? I used to think she's was really sexually assaulted but now that I think about it it seems like she's setting him up because xi wanted him who is one of xi's rival main ally to lose influence. Maybe Xi promise she would get a position in the CCP party but I doubt that will happen. In other words she got nothing out of setting the guy up.

Fans flock to tennis tournaments to watch men play because men's game is so thrilling and superior in every possible way.
