A few days ago, the first round of the 2022 WTA Stuttgart 500 tournament has all ended, and the high-profile Chinese Jinhua Zhang Shuai continues to be in a slump, in the competition with the Russian player Alexander Lova, Zhang Shuai unexpectedly collapsed in a good situation, and finally lost to the opponent and did not qualify for the next round. In the face of such a bad result, Zhang Shuai said in an interview after the game that he was very dissatisfied with his performance and hoped to adjust as soon as possible to make final preparations for the clay season. Needless to say, Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang are the hopes of Chinese women's tennis today, and after Li Na retired, these two people took on the heavy responsibility. But from the perspective of achievements, Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang cannot be compared with Li Na.
This season, Zhang Shuai made a fantastic start, not only reaching the round of 32 at the Australian Open, but also winning the women's singles title in the Lyon competition, breaking the four-and-a-half-year championship drought. But since then, Zhang Shuai has fallen into a period of low. Not only have they lost consecutively in singles matches, but they have also failed to win the championship many times in the highly competitive women's doubles event. As grand slam women's doubles champions, the combination of Zhang Shuai and Stosur is very popular in China, and after reaching the top of the Australian Open, everyone is optimistic that they can once again stand on the championship podium. Surprisingly, in many of the games that have been played this season, Zhang Shuai and Stosur have not joined forces.
Zhang Shuai even tried to partner with other foreign players. This change has led fans to speculate that the two may disintegrate due to poor results. The Stuttgart 500 match is crucial for Zhang Shuai. Previously, she had revealed that she had spent a lot of years fighting, and her body had been injured to varying degrees, and if the results were difficult to improve, and even lost love for tennis, the possibility of retirement was not ruled out. Therefore, if he can play in the clay season, Zhang Shuai will be more confident in preparing for the future game.
In the first round of the game, facing the not strong AlexanderLova, Zhang Shuai was far ahead in the first set of the seven-game battle. However, due to poor physical fitness, there were many mistakes, and finally regretted losing a set. Opponent AlexanderLova keenly grasped the loopholes in Zhang Shuai's physical fitness and mentality, and won the whole game. Missing the result of the second round made Zhang Shuai suffer a blow. Some fans said that it is no wonder that Zhang Shuai, who has always been sympathetic, complained after the game, and the victories and bonuses that should have been won were handed over to people because of his bizarre mistakes.
The 2022 French Open is coming, and as a veteran who is over 30 years old, Zhang Shuai's physical fitness and physical condition have almost reached the limit. Two years ago, she reached the women's singles round of 16 at Roland Garros, setting a career-best record in history. Two years later, Zhang Shuai's strength and state have long been different from the past, for his goal, Zhang Shuai said that he will try to play every point and enjoy the game process. Although Zhang Shuai's performance plummeted, in the years when Li Na left the arena, it was Zhang Shuai who supported the Chinese women's tennis!
