Let's talk about Zheng Qinwen today, this young man full of self-confidence, can his career develop towards a superstar like Gauff? Let's talk about Zheng Qinwen first, he once bluntly said that his ball skills are no worse than anyone else, this self-confidence, do you say that it is not a cow? However, although he is arrogant, what is the situation in the real professional field?
Looking back at Zheng Qinwen's career, we find that this player is best at serving, which is simply his killer move, but when it comes to the baseline game, it seems a little inadequate. I remember the Australian Open in 2024, he unexpectedly reached the final, but along the way, he did not meet too strong opponents. Some people say that he is "walking shit luck", and some people say that it is a combination of strategy and strength, anyway, they have their own opinions.
Look at Gauff, the young American talent, who has improved significantly in terms of technique and strategy since she joined her new coaching team, with a sharp forehand and a lot of game intelligence. In particular, she has excelled in back-to-back Grand Slams, beating a number of top opponents in a row, including the likes of Swiatek, and her performances are getting closer and closer to the level of top stars.
So, when Zheng Qinwen said that he had never lost, we couldn't help but ask, really? Although he had a brilliant performance, there seemed to be some gap between him and Gauff's stable and shining performance. Zheng Qinwen does have talent and extraordinary side, but his ability to cope with adversity and his psychological quality obviously need to be further tempered and improved.
Coach Gilbert once said, "Win ugly," which means finding a way to win, even when you're not in shape. In the competition, we saw that Gauff was able to adjust his strategy even if he was not in the best condition, and finally won the game. And when Zheng Qinwen encounters difficulties, he sometimes seems to lack a little calmness and wit.
Judging from the current situation, Zheng Qinwen still has a long way to go if he wants to reach the height of Gauff. He needs to continue to improve technically and, more importantly, to break through mentally and strategically in the game. Expectations are high from fans and the media, and everyone wants to see him break through and show more possibilities.
For Zheng Qinwen himself, what is more important is how to deal with external pressure and self-expectations. He needs to find his own rhythm and form, and constantly adjust and optimize his game strategy. Only in this way will he be able to occupy a place in the future tennis competition, gradually aligning with Gauff and even surpassing.
In conclusion, Zheng Qinwen's career continues, and his potential and future are still worth looking forward to. It will take time to see if he can catch up with Gauff. But one thing is certain, as long as he can maintain this courageous momentum, strengthen his weaknesses, and strengthen his mental and strategic construction, he will definitely be able to write his own brilliant chapter in the tennis world in the future.
Therefore, if you and me love tennis, you might as well continue to pay attention to Zheng Qinwen's game and see how he realizes his tennis dream step by step on the road of tennis. After all, every champion is not achieved overnight, there are countless sweats and tears behind it, and Zheng Qinwen's story continues.
