A Chinese Olympic athlete who did not make the air-rifle final was abused online before Chinese censors intervened and suspended 33 accounts.
The woman air-rifle contestant, Wang Luyao, placed 16th in the 10-metre air-rifle qualifying round, a disappointment for her considering she was a top medal contender for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
