html On August 27, the final round of the 2022 U.S. Tennis Open qualifying round came to an end. In the end, China's number one tennis player "ZZZ" Zhang Zhizhen lived up to expectations, sweeping Boggs 6-2 and 6-4 and breaking into the men's singles Main race. With this victory, Zhang Zhizhen also set four major records in Chinese men's tennis, which is extremely exciting.
The 26-year-old Zhang Zhizhen once created the highest world ranking in China's men's tennis in 2019 - No. 136. Now, through Zhang Zhizhen's good results in the challenge some time ago and his outstanding performance at this year's US Open , the instant world ranking has exceeded 136th, but the specific ranking will not be seen until after the US Open. Zhang Zhizhen passed the qualifying test and entered the US Open main draw for the first time in his career, setting four major records, which is really admirable.
These four records are: 1. He became the first male player from mainland China to enter the Grand Slam main draw through qualifying twice, 2. Became the first to participate in two different events. 3. Became the second mainland Chinese male player to enter the main draw of the US Open, 4. After becoming Wu Di (3 times) Zhang Ze (twice) The third mainland Chinese player to play in at least two Grand Slam men's singles main draws.
Although the above records are nothing compared to the Chinese women's network, for the men's network, which has always had no sense of existence, Xiao Zhang's four major records are still milestones. Through winning three qualifying matches, Zhang Zhizhen not only received 35 points (25 in the qualifying rounds and 10 in the first round of the main event), but also received a bonus of US$80,000.
It can be said that this bonus has relieved Zhang Zhizhen, who has a monthly mortgage of 30,000 yuan. If the taxes and team expenses paid are deducted, Zhang Zhizhen can also get about 300,000 yuan, which is among the top four in the country. It is still possible to make a down payment to buy a small house in first-tier cities. I wish Zhang Zhizhen a better performance in this US Open and pay off the mortgage as soon as possible!
