In the 2023 French Open women's doubles final, the Chinese Straits pair Wang Xinyu and Xie Shuwei made history by defeating the first set to win two consecutive sets 7-6 and 6-1, defeating Fernandez/Townsend 2-1 to win the women's doubles title.
For Wang Xinyu, this is her first Grand Slam title, the second Chinese mainland to win the French Open women's doubles title and the fifth Grand Slam women's doubles title. In addition, Wang Xinyu is only 21 years old, born in September 2001, she has also become the first post-00 to win a Grand Slam championship in Chinese tennis history, which is quite a "hero out of a teenager".
In addition, winning the French Open women's doubles championship is a substantial improvement for Wang Xinyu, and she and her partner Xie Shuwei won a prize of 590,000 euros, equivalent to more than 4.5 million yuan. In contrast, before Wang Xinyu participated in the French Open, her personal bonus income this year was 1.36 million, which means that Wang Xinyu has received a huge economic income. Wang Xinyu and Xie Shuwei will gain 2,000 points, so Wang Xinyu's world ranking will rise to 26th, and Xie Shuwei will be 30th. Among them, Wang Xinyu has set a new high in her world ranking, after her world ranking was 82nd, rising 56 places in one go.
At present, there are three superstars in the Chinese golden flower group, namely Zheng Qinwen, Wang Xiyu and Wang Xinyu, all of whom have played brilliantly in the teenage stage, and Wang Xinyu even ranked second in the world as a teenager for a time. In the adult category, Zheng Qinwen was the best developed at the beginning of his career, winning the 2022 Rookie of the Year, but now, Wang Xinyu overtook on a curve and became the fastest of these post-00s superstars to win a Grand Slam championship, officially proving himself.
Wang Xinyu also won two victories in the women's singles event at the French Open, which is also a career high, reaching the last 32 of a Grand Slam singles tournament for the first time. It can be said that Wang Xinyu's career development is in the fast lane, and there is a chance to soar into the sky.
Looking at Wang Xinyu's resume, she comes from an authentic sports family, and her father Wang Peng is a professional tennis coach and has coached the Chinese national tennis team. When Wang Xinyu was a child, in order to concentrate on playing with his daughter, Wang Peng left the national team directly and set up an international team for his daughter, giving Wang Xinyu the best development conditions and environment. Wang Xinyu's mother is also a professional athlete and was a member of the Zhejiang women's basketball team. The excellent genes of her parents have laid the foundation for Wang Xinyu and become this Chinese golden flower!
In the past, Li Na won the Grand Slam singles championship at the age of 27, and now Wang Xinyu is only 21 years old, she still has a lot of room for growth, looking forward to the post-00s Jinhua continue to improve and grow to the point of the world's top player!
