About this episode
Who is Peng Shuai? Thanks for asking! If you’re not a tennis follower, the chances are you may never have heard of Chinese player Peng Shuai. But in her discipline, she is kind of a big deal. A two-time doubles Grand Slam winner, she has also been ranked as high as 14th in the world during her singles career. But rather than asking “who is Peng Shuai?”, the question on everyone’s lips over the last couple of weeks has been “where is Peng Shuai?”. Indeed the Twitter hashtag has been used many thousands of times, since she vanished from the public eye. How did it all start? What happened next? Has she been seen since?
