Xinhua News Agency, New York, August 26 (Reporter Wang Jimin) The 2019 US Open tennis tournament began on the 26th. In the women's singles competition, several Chinese players went all out and performed remarkablely, "one sister" Wang Qiang, veteran Peng Shuai and Zhang Shuai all passed, and Zheng Saisai was tragically eliminated by the American famous Serena Williams.

Wang Qiang, currently ranked 18th in the world, played against The American Dolehead and successfully advanced to the second round with two 6:4. 'It was a lot of pressure for the opponent to serve me, but there were too many mistakes, so it gave me a lot of opportunities." Wang Qiang said after the game.

Wang Qiang's world ranking reached a career-high 14th place last month, but she has not been in very good shape recently. Plagued by a low back injury before and after Wimbledon, she rested for more than a month after Wimbledon. After defeating Dolehead, Wang Qiang said that she was recovering well, and she admitted that she did not make 100% efforts in the game, but hoped to slowly find the feeling of the game and gradually adjust the state to the best.

Veteran Peng Shuai defeated American Lepcenko 6:2, 7:6 (5). Peng Shuai, who was plagued by injuries, said bluntly after the game that she did not expect to win, and she felt "both happy" and "very grateful".

Peng Shuai said: "This year is particularly difficult, the challenge is very big, my knee surgery, coupled with the relationship of age, the recovery after the operation is very difficult, not only physically, mentally also collapsed, because everything has to start from scratch." This time, the US Open did not expect to pass the qualifiers, and did not expect to pass the first round. ”

In a Chinese "derby", 25-year-old Zhu Lin defeated 17-year-old qualifier Wang Xinyu 6-3, 6-4, who once again tasted the cruelty of switching to adult professional competitions.

"It's very important to gain experience at a Grand Slam and what I've discovered that needs to be strengthened is a valuable experience. Youth events are a preview of adult events, not only the prize money is different, but everyone is more mature and rational in handling the ball and key points. Wang Xinyu said.

Ms. Wang said she had set herself a small goal at the start of the season, hoping to reach around 150 at the end of the season, but more importantly, to keep herself away from injuries.

In addition, the famous Zhang Shuai easily defeated the Swiss player Golubic 6:2, 6:1. Zheng Saisai, who has recently gained momentum, was swept by Dawei 6:1, 6:0.

After the game, Zheng Saisai said that he greatly admired the "evergreen" Dawei of the tennis world. "I feel very admired that Dawei can be so good at such an old age, run so actively, and fight for every goal."
