As of 8 a.m. on August 25, 2025, the latest US Open update shows that all four Chinese players competing on the first day were eliminated in the opening round. The details follow.
In the opening match, Wang Xiyu lost 0-2 with set scores of 4-6 and 3-6 to the 25th seed Ostapenko. This loss was understandable since Wang Xiyu is not yet strong enough to beat her opponent.
In the second match, Zhu Lin fell 1-2 to Potapova. It was a close contest both in skill and score, which is unfortunate. We have witnessed Zhu Lin’s improvement and look forward to her continued progress in the future.
In the third match, Zhang Shuai was swept 0-2 by Bencic. We admire Zhang Shuai for continuing to compete at her age. She fought her way from the qualifiers into the main draw step by step, which is truly commendable.
In the fourth match, Wang Yafan was defeated 0-2 by Navarro. Wang Yafan pushed Navarro to a tiebreak in the first set, which was already an impressive effort considering Navarro is the 10th seed at the US Open.
