Im born and have lived there, and I can tell you it definitely is not "one of the more popular sports".
Before you go saying that it is in the bigger cities, I lived in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Qingdao, Nanjing, and again, it definitely isn't one of the more popular sports.

There is no good guy in this, but there is a clear side that is more shitty, and that's the Reynas. Weaponizing someone else's traumatic experience after 30 years of not saying a word for your own personal vendetta? That's really gross.

I’m not understanding why this is news. Do most professional footballers quit the job after winning the World Cup?

Talented doesn't always mean better in a team sport.

Apparently he has a bad attitude and is lazy at training. Jude Bellingham said he was the same at dortmund. Seeing how his parents are it wouldn't surprise me if he's got a bad attitude.

My guy, the way the WTA is squaring up to China is turning me into a fan.
No other organization, institution, or government has stood up to China this way.
All the executives in charge of WTA's stance?........ I want all their autographs. All of them. And Serena Williams'. And Venus'.
I'm a fan now. Someone teach me the rules of tennis STAT.

In elementary school my speech teacher was a former Olympic gymnast. She had a silver medal if I remember correctly

Women's tennis takes a harder stand on something than the NBA does with anything related to China. Wow. Good on them.

They want a resolution to the case that was the start of this. Her being safe and comfortable is nice and all (her saying I am safe and comfortable in a moderately controlled interview does not count), but she is clearly under duress to not speak of the incident. That’s what they want from this. They want her to be able to speak candidly and without punishment. Given that it’s China, it’s unlikely that will happen while she is in China, but who knows, China did make a sizable investment in WTA before this went down.

Chinese Americans are not Chinese Chinese. They are obviously very different culturally.

Shit, at least I'm not the only one. I can't believe I forgot about this even with all the other bullshit that has happened in the world since.

Sucks that a parent would do that, but hey, maybe we will get a good coach. Berhalter is not what we need

lol, this is such a dumb comment. someone has to make the money. all i hear is people bitch about billionaires without understanding that someone has to make the money if it's not the government. without billionaires things would be drastically more difficult, because billionaires are the ones who actually drive the economy. no billionaires = things are much more expensive and less jobs.
