China youth player attacks opponent after losing table tennis trial match
A 14-year-old Chinese table tennis player ruined his chance of reaching the national youth set-up and missed a critical early-career development window after punching his opponent following a loss. Cao Yanhao was thrust into the public eye on Tuesday night when the Jiangsu Table Tennis Association issued a disciplinary notice imposing a provincewide reprimand, disqualifying his results, and banning him from provincial competitions for one year. …
Recently, the semifinals of the 14-year-old group in the 7th Jiangsu Provincial Selection Tournament for the 2026 National Youth and Junior Training Teams were held at the Yangzhou Sports Park Gymnasium. After the match, the winning player, as is customary, went forward to shake hands. However, the losing player did not extend a hand but instead punched and kicked the opponent. The incident caused an uproar online. (Screenshot from video)
