Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai seems to have retracted her controversial sexual assault allegations in her first appearance in western media since she made the accusations. In an interview published today in French newspaper L'Equipe she said: "Sexual assault? I never said anyone had sexually assaulted me in any way." The former doubles world number one had previously alleged on a social media post that she had been forced into sex by China's former vice-premier. The post was swiftly deleted and Peng then disappeared from public view for three weeks, sparking concerns for her safety. Peng met with Thomas Bach, chief of the International Olympic Committee on Saturday in Beijing.
