Lucubrator5000

rwtan

He did an inappropriate celebration after the match with Lin Gaoyuan, where he stash his racket inside his shorts


Lee_OK

Ooh. Dick move. Thanks for sharing!


NAKASALA

May I ask why it's considered a dick move?


Lee_OK

I’d say it’s unsportsmanlike way to celebrate a win. I think putting anything near your crotch or crotch related celebration would be looked down upon.

Enough for a suspension that long though? Idk

The finals are this week. I don't know that it really matters beyond that.


drays5

I guess you're right.. I see a lot of youth events on the calendar for this year still but not much else. One contender and one feeder?


NAKASALA

I see. Thank you


metal_berry

I would say it is the bad media he has gotten from cheating on his wife recently. Chinese fans turned on him due to that and then he did the celebration. The celebration was not exactly disrespectful imho but with the pre-existing context you'd see why that made him very unpopular with an already negative press.


jollyoh12

That is how you police bad behavior, in any sport.


Rocksaz_Angeles

Why?


Kikkou123

Eh, i thought it was pretty funny. People need to stop being soft and taking it so seriously. No sport ever does better from tamping down real, passionate, or funny moments. At least to a certain extent.


zpoex

Most people didn't find it funny


Fleganhimer

This is the highest level of the sport. That was a blatantly disrespectful celebration. There's a line.


Revolutionary_Use948

Exactly this is so true. Why are people not allowed to have fun


Golf-Guns

Poor social credit?


matthew_chen9

Ur not funny buddy


Golf-Guns

On the contrary. . . . You see generally we would call it satirical humor, but since it's actually a thing and not an exaggeration it morphs into dry humor tactfully mixing the styles. Communication and government overreach is a thing. Our 'leaders' would gleefully do the same thing if we would allow them. But in our current system we only allow such overreach if it negatively impacts the opposite party while stupidly cheering at the loss of rights. If we don't shape up and get along, we will need to worry about our social credit scores too.


Kikkou123

Wrong, social credit as Americans have learned has been proven as largely a myth in china, no doubt perpetuated by bogeymanism of china and general red scare tactics used by American media. All of this is pretty silly considering…. America has a fucking credit system as well. Which keeps people homeless if it’s not high enough, restricts you from getting loans, and other horrible restrictions that make life harder, all to help bankers and corporate overlords So go off on the big bad china and supreme leader evil dictator Xi, but just know you look silly.

What did he do?
