Protester disrupts Wimbledon men’s final, asking ‘where’s Peng Shuai?’

A protester who shouted ‘where’s Peng Shuai?’ during the men’s Wimbledon final between Novak Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios was kicked out by security, Dailymail, reported

Play was quickly stopped and the spectator was bundled out by security, with boos echoing out across Centre Court while Novak Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios watched on.

Kyrgios appeared frustrated with the interruption, having placed his hands on his hips and huffed as he prepared for his opponent to serve in the third set.

Shuai is a Chinese tennis player who went missing from the public eye soon after accusing Zhang Gaoli, a retired Vice Premier of China, of sexual assault in 2021.

She re-appeared on state media two weeks later, although many critics in the west believe her return was staged after concern was raised over her disappearance.

Despite several months passing, Shuai is still yet to return to tennis.
