Special: Wu Yibing - It’s About Making History

I feel like we all have our own personal stories as to why we pick up a racket. Some do it because of sibling rivalry, some because of the social aspect and a desire for connection. I reckon there's a decent percentage of us who do it for exercise purposes. And in Wu Yinbings case, the Chinese superstar only started playing because his mother wanted him to lose weight at just six years of age.This week on Open Era. Simon takes a look at newly minted first time ATP Tour Title winner Wu Yibing, his story and what it means to have a Chinese male player win a title.Come join the Patreon family for bonus content, access to the exclusive discord server and ad free episodes: https://www.patreon.com/openeraFollow @OpenEra on Twitter!
