BEIJING — Peng Shuai, the Chinese tennis player who largely disappeared from public life after making sexual abuse accusations against a political official in November, held a private meeting with Thomas Bach, the president of the International Olympic Committee, in Beijing.
The two had dinner on Saturday at the Olympic Club and were joined by Kirsty Coventry, former chair of the Athletes’ Commission and an I.O.C. member, according to a statement released Monday from the I.O.C.
The statement did not address Peng’s sexual assault allegations or the possibility of Bach pressing for an investigation of Peng’s claims, but it said that Peng was at the Winter Olympics and attending events, including a curling match between China and Norway on Saturday night.
