The focus of this episode first and foremost is to discuss the story of Peng Shuai, the Chinese tennis star who came out with allegations of sexual assault against former Vice Premier Zhang Gaoli last week and is now missing. This story has garnered attention beyond just the tennis world, with the WTA, fellow tennis players, politicians, and the media speaking out. Peng Shuai’s disappearance also represents a lot about the state of #MeToo and censorship in China. We hope and pray for her safety, so please take the time to listen to and read about her story. We also discuss some ATP and WTA tennis that went down this week, including a celebration of Mugu’s Guadalajara success and other takeaways from the WTA Finals, heartbreaking injuries and debut alternates at the ATP Finals, Federer’s 2022 season doubts, and our usual analysis and giggles.
