CzechPunter Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 That's a rather old article, several things have happened since. Just yesterday I believe, WTA has announced its pause on Chinese tournaments. A brave step - and in the right direction!

CzechPunter Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 It will be interesting to see how this pans out either way. China has been a big aim for the WTA management recently and I didn't think they would have the guts to pull out. It's obviously great that they did. The Olympics aren't going to be taken from China, obviously, but it's a shame that there isn't more pressure from that side. It'd be great to see some cooperation between the sporting bodies. These issues are much bigger than any sport, or even all sports combined honestly. DrO and four-leaf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
