WTA Is one of the smallest sport association between the sisters. And china is their biggest market by miles far above everything else (10 tournaments per year before dropping).
What they are doing is not only remarkable, but it's like David vs Goliath. They know they got no chance and still putting up a fight. Mad mad respect for them.
We occidental medias should cover this shit more often, instead nobody gives a fuck about that anymore. And it's super sad. Shuai's family is probably kidnapped since things went down with that son of a bitch chinese senator. Sorry but I can't stand this shit no more

Yeah but we are totally forgetting they are leaving since 2 years and a half their most profitable market (10 🏆 with some big ass tourneys) and like billions in endorsements, ads and everything else. It's like ok I'm gonna cut my throat at 65% just to stand for civil rights and just for one single player. They need to be recognized all days in media coverage, all year long in every sport talks, just in this manner china will be slowly called out, and maybe won't change shit but at least u put pressure on'em. Instead nobody gives a shit and we are releasing a dope ass Netflix series to not think about this atrocious situation.
Yes, when u see a fucking video with your wta player alone in an empty stadium, saying "it's all right folks, nobody is haunting me" with a fear look in her face (bc her family is probably under torture or something) and 10 fake ass players all smiling simultaneously.
Yes u know things are real bad. But this is the way china operate.

Wta left tons of money on the table trying to "protect" Shuai.
But anger took over me and i lost my shit throughout it.
At the end of the day it's one of those atrocities that won't be speak about after some weeks
Exactly what happened with Peng "incident"
