Didn't at least some of the Americans also disparage their Chinese competitors after losing

ed. Was a tennis player

A tennis player said she didn't respect her opponent as a competitor, said she was too cut throat. Fun fact: The opponent was Zheng, the tennis star who western media said was disappeared by the CCP, and was very concerned about for a minute

Are you thinking of Peng Shuai or did they do this again for her too?

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

Ah yeah, that is what I was thinking of

How does the olympics work why are the only countries competing china, NK, Japan, and the USA no matter which of the sports I look at? Is this like the just first round elimination and then the other countries will play?

You should watch the NBC abridged coverage of the China/NK mixed doubles. Basically no winning NK points even though they kept it close the whole time. Such bad, clearly biased coverage, no love of the competition.
