US-born Figure Skater Zhu Yi Slammed Online After Falling in Olympic Debut for China
Zhu Yi fell several times and failed to land a jump during her Olympic debut for Team China, sparking backlash on Chinese social media.
The hashtag “Zhu Yi has fallen” quickly became a top trending topic Sunday night on China’s social media platform Weibo before it was later seemingly censored, according to the South China Morning Post. It was a swift turnabout for Zhu, who was cheered minutes earlier when she skated onto the ice at Beijing's Capital Indoor Stadium for her Olympic debut.
