The 2022 ATP1000 Miami Masters is in full swing, and the Chinese team strives to create the best results in the men's singles, women's singles and women's doubles events. On the men's side, the 17-year-old Chinese teenager Shang Juncheng, who played with a wild card, failed to surprise the fans, and after three hard games, he finally regretted a round of travel. In the women's singles field, the Chinese team was mixed, the two core figures Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang successfully advanced to the next round, and Wang Xinyu was eliminated. In this competition, Chinese tennis almost sent the strongest lineup, especially the women's singles and women's doubles events, and the players said in an interview before the game that they expected to get good results.
For players such as Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang, this will be an important warm-up for them before the clay season, and testing the results of training, mobilizing competitive status, and accumulating confidence in the game are their main goals in Miami. In this tournament, the biggest expectation is the Chinese men's tennis hope star Shang Cheng, the 17-year-old has obtained a valuable wild card to be able to appear in the Miami tournament. Originally, many fans hoped that he would be able to set a new career record in the 1000-level event, but due to the lack of mentality and experience of the game, Shang Juncheng was still unable to go further.
Facing veteran Kudra, Shang Juncheng struggled with his opponents in three sets, and in the first set, Shang Juncheng took the lead and won the seventh set. Subsequently, the opponent stubbornly pulled back a set. In the decider, Shang Juncheng was confused with the opportunity to win the game, missing the perfect opportunity to advance to the second round. In this regard, many fans have issued a helpless sigh, "Chinese men's tennis is far from the world level, not only backward in technology, but also in terms of mentality adjustment, on-the-spot response, etc., there are also obvious deficiencies."
The competition for women's singles is particularly fierce, and the four Golden Flowers of the Chinese team, Wang Xinyu, Zhang Shuai, Yuan Yue and Wang Qiang, joined forces. Wang Xinyu, a young player who broke through from the qualifiers, played in general, and after two sets of fierce battles, he lost to the powerful Sasnovic, which was also the second time after the Melbourne station that Wang Xinyu lost to his opponent. Zhang Shuai, who won the women's singles championship in Lyon, encountered Waterloo in the previous Indian Wells station, and after coming to Miami, she said in an interview that she needed to improve her form as soon as possible and get out of the shadow of defeat. In the first round with Towson Narrow Road, Zhang Shuai withstood tremendous pressure.
As the opponent chose to withdraw from the tiebreaker, Zhang Shuai successfully entered the next round. This is Zhang Shuai's second victory in the women's singles competition in Miami after a gap of five years. In the second round, she will be challenged by the 24th seed Costia. Wang Qiang also won the first round of the game, after the game, Wang Qiang said that she and the coach have been engaged in technical and physical training, and the results of the Miami station are crucial for the whole team. In this Miami race, China Jinhua is expected to create surprises again in the women's singles and women's doubles events.
