WTA more like WTF burying this in the middle of a Major in a press release - Tennis fans fume as women s tennis is set to return to China in 2023 despite uncertainty over Peng Shuai
By Aayush Majumdar Modified 13 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Tennis fans react to the return of WTA tennis tournaments to China in 2023 Tennis fans expressed their dissent after the Women's Tennis Association (WTA) recently confirmed that the tour will return to China in 2023, despite lingering uncertainty over the safety of Peng Shuai. The WTA Finals will be held in Fort Worth, Texas, this year, but will return to Shenzhen, China, in 2023. Late last year, the WTA banned China from hosting their tournaments owing to the country's controversial handling of Peng Shuai's allegations of sexual misconduct against a top Chinese government official. The authorities soon censored all talk about the issue in China and Shuai went missing for two weeks, leading to concerns being raised worldwide about her safety. Shuai has made some public appearances since then, but there are still concerns about her safety and free will. While the issue is still prevalent, the WTA's announcement of a return to China for next year's season-ending finale has drawn many reactions from tennis fans. Many opined that the WTA had changed its courageous stance on the matter, while others demanded more clarity. "The WTA Finals going back to China??? WTA, more like WTF… Burying this in the middle of a major in a press release about Fort Worth?" one fan wrote on Twitter.
