0-2, losing 9 games in a row, Zheng Qinwen lost to Swiatek 5 in a row, and the Chinese team missed the top 4 of the United Cup 0-2
Today, Beijing time, on January 3, the 1/4 finals of the 2nd United Cup Tennis Tournament entered the fierce second match, and the Chinese team sent China's first sister Zheng Qinwen to face the Polish team's Swiatek in the women's singles duel. However, the final result was frustrating for the fans of the Chinese team and Zheng Qinwen, because Zheng Qinwen lost to the opponent with a big score of 0-2, and in the face of Swiatek, Zheng Qinwen once lost 9 games in a row, which became an important reason why the Chinese team missed the top 4 of the United Cup.
Zheng Qinwen is currently ranked 14th and has a new career high. In her first two matches, she excelled in the singles event, beating Grand Slam champion and top 10 player Vondrousova and Serbian star Danilovic respectively, showing that she is in good form for the new season. However, against world No. 1 Swiatek, Zheng faces a tough test.
The two players have played each other 4 times before, Zheng Qinwen has won 0 and lost 4, and has been at an absolute disadvantage. In this game, whether Zheng Qinwen can stage an upset miracle has become the focus of fans' attention. In the previous men's singles match, China's first brother Zhang Zhizhen lost two sets in a row and lost 0-2 to Poland's first brother Hurkacz, adding pressure to the Chinese team.
At the beginning of the first set, Zheng Qinwen started well, successfully completed a break serve, and then held serve to take a 2-0 lead. However, Swiatek quickly adjusted and showed the strength of the world No. 1, winning six games in a row to reverse the lead with a score of 6-2 and a big score of 1-0. Judging from the first set, there is a clear gap in the strength of the two, and Zheng Qinwen seems to have suddenly lost the confidence to play after taking the lead.
In the second set, Swiatek broke first in the second game and then held serve to take a 3-0 lead. In the 4th game, Zheng Qinwen struggled to hold serve, 1-3, and stopped the decline of losing 9 games in a row, and in the 5th game, Zheng Qinwen broke back 2-3, showing a strong will. However, Swiatek won three games in a row, and finally won the second set with a score of 6-3, defeating Zheng Qinwen 2-0, making the Chinese team miss the semi-finals of the United Cup with an aggregate score of 0-2.
The match once again highlighted Swiatek's dominance in women's tennis, while Zheng faced an absolute disadvantage. While Zheng has had a good season, she still needs to work on her ability to cope against higher-ranked players. The pressure and gap in the competition made people see the development space of Chinese women's tennis on the international stage.
For the Chinese team, this competition is a valuable accumulation of experience, and in future competitions, the Chinese women's tennis team needs to make greater breakthroughs in terms of technology, psychology and tactics to improve the overall strength. Although it failed to advance to the semi-finals, this is not the end of failure, but a new starting point, and Chinese women's tennis needs to learn from it and continue to improve.
Overall, the United Cup tennis tournament presented a fierce matchup for fans, with Swiatek's prowess once again in the spotlight. Zheng Qinwen showed tenacity in the competition, but he still needs to face his own shortcomings and find more breakthroughs for future development. The performance of Chinese women's tennis in the international arena still needs more hard work and hard work, and I believe that in the future journey, they will create more brilliance.
