Famous for carrying his tennis rackets in a bamboo basket, Wang Fa, a 14-year-old dark horse who won the U14 boys' singles title in the Guangzhou stop of the 2022 ASICS Tennis Junior Tour, has become an internet sensation.
"We always carried bamboo baskets when we worked in the field. This is a symbolic farming tool of the Wa ethnic group. I carried my rackets in this basket to honor my hometown," he added.
Home for Wang is a mountainous area named Cangyuan Va Autonomous County. Located in southwest China's Yunnan Province, the county, composed of 67 villages with a population of more than 40,000, was lifted out of poverty in 2019.
