Wang Yafan: The wrist injury is fine, thank you Zhang Zhizhen for providing me with a high-quality winter training environment

China's Wang Yafan won the 2025 Australian Open Women's Singles 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory over Bondar in the first round, after winning six consecutive Grand Slam first-round victories.


Wang Yafan reviewed the game after the match and said: "Because I haven't played for a long time, I didn't get into the game at the beginning, and I withdrew from the first game because of my wrist, and I didn't play last week. So at the beginning, I didn't focus on the score, I was worried about my physical condition, and I was a little nervous at the beginning, so I felt that there were some problems with my hitting rhythm, hitting point, and the choice of hitting the ball, and there were also a lot of mistakes. ”

"From the second set, I was more focused on the match, trying to adjust myself as much as I could, her forehand was better, she was a little more aggressive, so I would hit more balls to her backhand and look for opportunities to attack her forehand. I think I did a good job today by making some adjustments, not giving up when I was behind, and trying my best to fight for every point. Later, when I got to the third set, I actually had a little cramp at first, but I ate some salt at the time, and then it got better, and I think it had something to do with the fact that I hadn't played for a long time. ”


Talking about the wrist injury that plagued her during the warm-up match, Wang Yafan said: "My left wrist feels a lot better, in fact, I can play normally in the game, but I may have a little soreness at the end, I don't think there is much of a problem at present." ”


Wang Yafan's opponent in the second round is the tournament's No.9 seed Kasatkina, and looking forward to the tough match, she said: "Actually, I haven't played against her, but watching her play a lot of matches, I think she is a very smart player. Her overall speed and power may not be as fast as that of an attacking player, but her movement, line changes, and landing will be better and more accurate, and this game will definitely be tough, so be prepared for a lot of boards before the match. Hopefully, if I have the chance, I can surf the Internet more and try to play too little in the back. ”


Talking about the results of the previous winter training period, Wang Yafan and Zhang Zhizhen's team spent a fruitful winter training in Dongguan, and she also thanked Zhang Zhizhen very much for this: "We all call him big brother, and few players can be very generous to share their coaching team, which is a very, very worthy of our admiration." I couldn't come to me because of the coach's family reasons, so I asked (Zhang Zhizhen) if I could borrow his coach, and he directly agreed to my request, and I was very grateful to him for letting me have a good environment for complete training in winter training. The changes I made in winter training included serving, in fact, as everyone knows, my serve is not particularly good, and his coach helped me adjust my serve a little bit, and I reduced the pull, which is a bit like him, and I think it has improved my overall success rate a lot lately. ”
