Wimbledon In the two WTA grass-court tournaments before Wimbledon, they were eliminated in the first round by players ranked below 100 in the world; after the All England Club, they successfully entered the top 32 of Wimbledon women's singles with two convincing victories. The "rookie" Zheng Qinwen in the grass court suddenly broke out, allowing everyone to see the huge potential of this 19-year-old Chinese youngster.
Zheng Qinwen said that the "round trip" to Berlin and Eastbourne was not a bad thing. "Those two losses on grass were very important to me. They made me see my shortcomings in grass games, and then I can make improvements. I have learned a lot myself and conducted a lot of training on grass with my team.”
was able to win his first career grass-court victory in a Grand Slam tournament like Wimbledon. Now I am full of confidence, "I am very happy to win these two grass court games at Wimbledon. Continuous winning makes me more and more confident in grass court games. Compared with clay courts, my experience in grass court games is not that rich. So I have been working hard to adjust my state on the grass. "
"I found that my serve is my advantage in the grass game, and I have to make good use of this." Indeed, Zheng Qinwen, a powerful female player, can improve her performance on the grass. In her first trip to Wimbledon, she reached the third round of the women's singles, relying on her powerful serve.
In the first round, Zheng Qinwen faced former US Open champion Stephens. Zheng Qinwen had a relatively difficult fight because his first serve success rate was not high enough. Although he won 2:0, he was broken first by his opponent in both sets and then reversed.
played against Belgian player Mineen last night. Zheng Qinwen improved his serving efficiency, so he won much more easily.
"I think serving still depends on the state. Of course, I made small adjustments to my serve in this game." Zheng Qinwen said after the game, "Today's serve is indeed a powerful weapon for me, especially in key points. It gave me a lot of confidence. Comparing the opponent's serve with mine, I was able to hold serve more easily, which was the key to winning this game."
competed in the senior group of the Grand Slam. One year, Zheng Qinwen reached the second round of the women's singles at the Australian Open, reached the top 16 of the women's singles at the French Open, and this time has advanced to the third round in the women's singles competition at Wimbledon.
Being able to perform like this as a newcomer already illustrates Zheng Qinwen's strength, but this has more to do with her confidence and domineering on the court.
Now talking about the French Open quarter-finals loss to the world's top tennis player and French Open champion Swiatek, Zheng Qinwen is still a little unconvinced. After all, on Swiatek's way to win the French Open, Zheng Qinwen was the only opponent who could win her a set.
Zheng Qinwen said: "Looking back now, I still feel it is a pity. My goal is not just to win her in one set, because I feel that I have the strength to defeat her. In the end, I was not able to do this because of my physical condition. In fact, I was very disappointed with my physical condition that day. If my physical condition was normal in that game, I would have fought harder and pushed her harder."
Then, Zheng Qinwen also revealed a little thing at that time. Details, "In fact, after she beat me, I told her, 'You must win the championship.' Because the opponents behind her could not pose a threat to her on clay, and the result was the same. She won easily all the way. "
has now mentioned her regrets and unwillingness at the French Open again, which shows that Zheng Qinwen is very eager for her to perform better at Wimbledon this time.
In the next third round, Zheng Qinwen will meet the No. 17 seed of this tournament, Lebakina from Kazakhstan , who eliminated the former US Open champion and Canadian star Andreescu .
Rybakina, currently ranked 23rd in the WTA rankings, is not easy to deal with. Her skills are very balanced in all aspects. She reached the top 32 in the women's singles at Wimbledon last year.
Of course, if Zheng Qinwen wants to successfully advance to the fourth round like he did at the French Open, the key is to give full play to his advantage in serving. "I am very happy that in the second round my serve was very stable, from the first point to the last point. That's it. I hope to continue to maintain such a good state and perform more stably to meet the next game."
The third round of the Wimbledon women's singles match between Zheng Qinwen and Rybakina will be held on Saturday local time in London. conduct.
Another Chinese golden flower who has reached the top 32 of women's singles - China's first sister Zhang Shuai and French star Garcia's third round match is scheduled to start in the early morning Beijing time tomorrow.
