Rarely, if ever, has a player’s no-show at a major tennis tournament been so noticeable or worrying.

Concern about her wellbeing was first raised when she disappeared late last year, almost immediately after publicly accusing a communist party leader of sexually assaulting her. After being missing for several weeks, she’s now been seen at several carefully staged-managed events, including the Winter Olympics, but Peng Shuai’s reappearance has done little to convince the world she’s okay - or that China respects human rights.
