On January 13, 2022, Beijing time, Chinese tennis once again sent good news, in the second round of the Australian Open women's singles qualifier, Zheng Qinwen swept the local player Mendez 2-0 to advance to the qualifying round, the opponent is Japan's Ben Yu Zhenwei. The two sides have previously met in the Melbourne Summer Series, Zheng Qinwen reversed the victory, and then fought the defeated player, Zheng Qinwen had the opportunity to break into the Australian Open main tournament.
5 Chinese players competed in the Australian Open women's singles qualifier, Zhu Lin and Han Xinyun were both out of the first round of the qualifiers, and You Xiaodi was eliminated in the second round of the qualifiers, Yuan Yue and Zheng Qinwen have sent good news, the two defeated the strong players and broke into the qualifying tiebreaker. Yuan Yue defeated American McNally 7-6, 6-4, a high-stakes match in which Yuan Yue will face another American player, Baptiste, in the qualifying round.
Youngster Zheng Qinwen is a highlight of the season, she reached the women's singles final four in the previous Melbourne Summer Series, and participated in the adult grand slam event for the first time, and her performance was remarkable. Facing homegrown player Mendes in the second round of the qualifying round, Zheng Qinwen took control of the game and won easily 6-3, 6-2. Cheng Qinwen, who has won two consecutive qualifying matches, is only one step away from the main Australian Open, and she will face Japanese player Honyu Makoto in the decider round.
Ben Yuzhen is only the defeated player of Zheng Qinwen, and the two have just met in the Melbourne Summer Series, when Zheng Qinwen reversed his opponent and successfully advanced. This time they meet again, Zheng Qinwen will certainly not be afraid of his opponents on the psychological level. If he can control the active mistakes and play to his own advantages, Zheng Qinwen has the hope of defeating his opponents again and qualifying for the Australian Open, which will become another major breakthrough in his career.
This season, the state of several veterans in China is still very general, such as Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang, who have not yet won the first victory in the women's singles field, Zheng Saisai has withdrawn from the competition continuously, and the competitive status is not guaranteed. In this case, we need our young players to come forward, And Zheng Qinwen is undoubtedly the most surprising, I hope she can successfully win the qualifier tiebreaker and advance to the Australian Open. Only by participating in more high-level competitions can Zheng Qinwen continue to improve and continue to bring more surprises!
