U.S-born Chinese figure skater Zhu Yi

U.S.-born figure skater who renounced citizenship and defected to China comes in dead last at Winter Olympics

U.S-born Chinese figure skater Zhu Yi, who four years ago kicked America to the curb, was reviled in China on Sunday after a disastrous performance at the Winter Olympics held in Beijing.

Zhu was born in Los Angeles and in 2018 she renounced her U.S. citizenship and her American name, Beverly Zhu, to compete for China.

Her showing was a factor in China falling to fifth in the team standings.

I guess her soft life in the US left her ill-prepared to compete with the tough Chinese.
