Tennis once had a glorious history in China. Li Na won two Grand Slam women's singles titles at the French Open and the Australian Open, Zheng Jie/YanZi also won the women's doubles titles at the Australian Open and Wimbledon, and Sun won the mixed doubles title at the Australian Open. Together with Li Ting, she achieved a breakthrough in the Olympic gold medal in China tennis. With the retirement of these veterans, tennis in China has fallen into a trough. But recently, the two little flowers have made rapid progress. First, Wang Xinyu has reached the semi-finals many times in some low-level open competitions. Recently, Yuan Yue has also won a winning streak of 10 in the Open, which is expected to improve the world ranking through small competitions and further qualify for competing with top players.
Yuan Yue and Zhang Shuai met in the WTA 125K semi-final. In the first game of the first set, Zhang Shuai took the lead in serving, but Yuan Yue's attack was a bit clumsy. The first serve faces the opponent's break point. Fortunately, Zhang Shuai successfully grabbed the attack with high-quality service, which resolved the danger and ensured the service. In the second game, Zhang Shuai successfully broke Yuan Yue's serve and tied the score to 2-0 with the momentum of the first game to turn the tide. However, Yuan Yue is not to be outdone. With 2-4 down, he broke a serve against Zhang Shuai, and the two sides fought to 4-4 after the first eight innings. With Zhang Shuai's success in the ninth inning, the pressure came to Yuan Yue. Zhang Shuai grasped Yuan Yue's psychological fluctuation and finished the second game.
The second game was surprisingly one-sided Zhang Shuai, who is more experienced in the competition, completely controls the rhythm of the competition. Maybe he is more confident about winning the first game. Throughout the stalemate, he dared to change his course, and Yuan Yue was exhausted by returning the ball from a big angle. In the end, Zhang Shuai broke Yuan Yue's serve three times and scored an egg 6-0 to win the whole game.
Zhang Shuai's final opponent will be Russian Diazenko, who is only one year younger than Zhang Shuai and one hundred places behind in the world ranking. However, Diazenko once beat Sharapova, the grand slam winner, in the first round of Wimbledon women's singles at 20 18, which made people stunned. In the past two years, her performance has not been excellent enough. Zhang Shuai is expected to win this battle, add another crown to the singles record and continue to improve the world ranking.
Through his recent performance, teenager Yuan Yue's world ranking has reached 65,438+096, which has sealed the qualification for next year's Australian Open qualifiers. It is every young player's dream to participate in the Grand Slam, but to meet the competition standards, there must be enough world rankings. In the past two years, Chinese tennis has repeatedly stopped in the first round of qualifiers and top events, and your Jinhua world ranking has dropped rapidly. However, this year's competition strategy has been adjusted, and low-level events have been selected to participate, which has increased points and accumulated confidence, so as to avoid losing in high-level events and strive to retreat to top events again.
