The International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) on Nov. 28 BJT, said that no racist comments or behavior is tolerated and opposes all form of racism in response to racial discrimination during World Table Tennis Championships 2021.
On Nov. 27 BJT, a white male spectator shouted, “yellow banana, yellow banana” to Chinese ping pong player Liang Jingkun when he was playing against a British player.
Although it looked as if the man was saying that Pitchford was eating a banana, given that the word "banana" is an insult to the yellow race in English slang, and based on the actual circumstances, it is also reasonable to suspect that he was actually making a racist insult against Liang.
