On January 12, Beijing time, the first round of the women's singles of the 2025 Australian Open continued, and China's golden flower Wang Xinyu lost to No. 11 seed Badosa 3-6/6-7(5), and was eliminated in the first round of the Australian Open for two consecutive years.

Wang Xinyu is not in good form in the new season, suffering first-round defeats in both WTA Tour events; Badosa has only won one win at the WTA in Adelaide. In this match, Wang Xinyu showed a good hand in the opening game, taking the lead to break serve and take a 3-1 lead, but then she unexpectedly lost five games in a row and lost the first set 3-6. In the second set, Wang Xinyu improved her performance on her serve and held serve with Badosa in the first eight games. In the next two games, the two sides launched a fierce attack on each other's serve, and after Wang Xinyu broke Badosa's serve to win the game, both sides protected one game each, bringing the match into a tie-break. In the tie-break, Wang Xinyu completed two mini-breaks in the opening game to lead 3-0, but then she lost four points in a row and was passive, and finally Bardosa seized the opportunity of the second match point and won the tie-break with a small score of 7-5 to pocket the victory.

In the whole game, Wang Xinyu's second serve scoring rate was only 43%, and she hit 32 winning points while also making 40 unforced errors, which was in strong contrast to Badosa's 9 winning points and 15 unforced errors, which also became the key to the loss of this game. Badosa's opponent in the second round will be between Semmez and Gibson.
