Japanese badminton player Chhauharu Shida has publicly asked his Chinese fans to respect their privacy and prevent them from staring, saying that his behavior has made him “very uncomfortable and very scared”. Currently competing at the Badminton Asia Championships in Ningbo, China, 27 -year -old is known as the “most beautiful player” among Chinese fans. She recently revealed on social media that she has been mixed during every competition in China in the last 18 months.
He said, “Thanks to everyone for your constant support, but I would like to request some request to all my fans. We have already been going on for one and a half years when we compete in China. Recently, we have been very uncomfortable and very afraid,” he said in an Instagram post.
Ms. Shida and her partner, Nemi Matsuayama recently won a bronze medal in the women’s doubles at the 2024 Paris Olympics and currently ranked third in the world. In the post, he said “not all fans are not like this” and thanked the majority for their support.
“I know that it is not all those fans that are like this, and I really like China and I am grateful to all support from fans. Now start, please stare and stop the same behavior. If such a situation continues, I have to think a way to handle it. Finally, please, please focus on us in the stadium.
In particular, the player has obtained an important following in China, which gave him the surname “Badminton Devi” due to his impressive skills and attractive personality. In November 2023, Ms. Shida revealed that she was rebuked and improperly touched by fans by fans during the China Masters tournament, asking fans to honor her personal place.
The Chinese Olympic Committee responded to Ms. Shida’s concerns, issuing a statement condemning the “passionate fan culture” and warned that such behavior has interrupted competitions, public arrangements and sports morality.
