Azarenka said that despite Zheng Qinwen's talent and the ability to win Grand Slams, to be honest, I don't think she can reach Li Na's heights, at least for now. This is Azarenka's own opinion in an interview with the media, and this point of view has also been shared by some people!
For Azarenka, tennis fans should be familiar with her, she was once the former world No. 1 in women's singles, won two Grand Slam titles, although she is older now, but the competitive state is still very good, not long ago in the Miami women's singles match, the Belarusian veteran, defeated Zheng Qinwen in straight games, this is also the first time the two of them have met.
Compared with Zheng Qinwen's strangeness, Azarenka and Li Na can be described as "old rivals" in women's tennis, they have played a total of 11 times in their careers, Li Na has won 5 times, and Azarenka has won 6 times, their records are equal, in addition to being more familiar on the court, the two of them have a good private relationship, when Li Na retired, Azarenka also sent blessings, and the two can be regarded as sympathetic!
As for the comparison between Zheng Qinwen and Li Na, Azarenka's point of view has a certain truth, it is undeniable that Zheng Qinwen's talent is very high, in terms of physical and strength talents, it is definitely not inferior to Li Na, or even better than her, but in terms of technology, Zheng Qinwen is much worse, fans who have watched her play know that whether it is offensive or defensive, including serving, she almost looks mediocre, to put it bluntly, none of them is her specialty.
It is generally difficult for such players to have too high achievements, because looking at the world tennis world, all top superstars have their own specialties in some aspect, and the same is true for Li Na, although Li Na's defense is not good and is often criticized by some fans, but her offensive ability, especially the forehand ability, the ball speed is fast, and the angle of hitting the ball is tricky, this technique has also become a "big killer" for Li Na, from her forehand shooting skills, it is indeed the world's top.
Of course, some fans may say that Zheng Qinwen is still relatively young, she is only 21 years old now, you must know that Li Na's performance is not as good as Zheng Qinwen's at this age, so there is no need to belittle this young player too much, it sounds like this point of view has a certain amount of truth, but you must know that the strength of Li Na's players in that era is much stronger than the overall level of women's tennis now.
Li Na's women's tennis world can be said to be the heyday of history, opponents include Williams, Clijsters, and the Russian beauty Sharapova, these players are the top in history, their achievements and influence are incomparable to the current batch of players, which is also a recognized fact, just imagine, if Li Na is in this era, it can be said that she has won more honors!
