What feels like a story from straight out of a TV drama, tennis fans and activists of the #MeToo movement across China are asking. #WhereIsPengShuai. Little is known of her whereabouts after her social post from November 2nd (deleted within 30 minutes from the Weibo social platform in China), publicly accusing a former Chinese vice-premier of forcing her to have sex several years ago. The WTA has asked China to investigate this, and while the Chinese Tennis Association has told WTA CEO Steve Simon that she's safe in Beijing, no one has seen her since this post. The tennis community hopes for a swift resolution and acknowledgment of the whereabouts of Peng, and a full investigation into the allegations made against this Chinese government official. The guys cover other tennis news stories including results from Linz (WTA) and Stockholm (ATP), another Andy Murray Moment, FAA and Denis' withdrawal from Davis Cup, the WTA Finals, ATP Next Gen Finals and the start of the ATP World Tour Finals in Torino.
