Where is Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai? | Shirts now allowed at Australian Open

The Australian Open organisers have reversed ban on 'Where is Peng Shuai?' shirts after backlash. U-turn after video emerged of the tennis Grand Slam security staff ordering spectators to remove pro-Peng Shuai shirts. Before the ban reversal, ex-tennis stars and fans accused organisers of bowing to pressure from Chinese sponsors. The tennis tournament chief stated 'Where is Peng Shuai?' shirts are now allowed, as long as there is 'no intent to disrupt' the Grand Slam.
