The huge 11-man Chinese army has all completed their debut at this Australian Open. Compared with last year's men's tennis and women's tennis, the results of this year's men's tennis have directly fallen off a cliff, and they have collectively encountered a round of tours. Compared with the eight-member appearance of the Golden Flower Legion, the four-person pass the test, so that the Chinese Legion once again appeared in the Australian Open.
For the Chinese team at this year's Australian Open, except for Buyun Chaoket, Wang Xiyu, and Zheng Qinwen's first-round signing luck was not bad, and the first-round signing luck of others was not good.
Buyun Chaokert, who never thought that he was the most optimistic, did not grasp this God-given good luck, and was finally defeated by Lebanese player Habika, who is ranked outside the 200 in the world, in straight sets, making Habib a hero in his country.
With Shang Juncheng choosing to retire due to injury when he fell behind, China's first brother Zhang Zhizhen became the only seedling in the Chinese men's tennis, and the responsibility of hitting the Australian Open for the men's tennis fell on Zhang Zhizhen.
When talking about the match against Rune before the game, Zhang Zhizhen once said frankly that the state of the two in the new season is not good, and who can win in the end depends on who will be more stable at the critical moment, and he will definitely fight with all his might.
Zhang Zhizhen did as he said, going all out from the first set, giving Rune a dismount in the first set.
Just when the fans and netizens in the live broadcast room shouted that they were optimistic that Zhang Zhizhen would be able to beat Rune, it was very regrettable that the first brother of China lost two sets in a row and was directly forced to the edge of the cliff by the Danes.
Although Zhang Zhizhen withstood the huge pressure in the fourth set that decided his life and death and tied the big score, in the end, in the deciding set, because he could not release all the pressure in his heart, his calmness was slightly worse, and he was directly forced out of two match points by Rune on his serve, and successfully cashed in on the first match point, so that Zhang Zhizhen, who had experienced a hard battle in five sets, finally worked in vain.
Zhang Zhizhen's exit also officially announced that the Chinese men's tennis team left the worst record in this Australian Open. And the first brother of China lost to Rune in the end, as he said before the game, whoever plays more consistently at the most critical moment will win, which Zhang Zhizhen did not do as well as Rune.
Compared with Zhang Zhizhen, the lone seedling of the Chinese men's tennis, who sank into the sand on the third match day of the Australian Open, the Chinese Golden Flower Army finally showed its feminine demeanor and played with momentum.
Wang Xiyu, who has experienced two consecutive defeats in the new season, started the game from the first set against Grabhel, ranked 415th in the world, and directly sent the opponent a fritter.
Although Wang Xiyu took a 3-1 lead in the second round, everyone once again appreciated Wang Zuo's screenwriting routine, but finally stabilized it in time at the end of the game. After winning the second set 7-5 to seal the victory of the whole match, Wang Xiyu also became the second Chinese golden flower to advance to the second round of the Australian Open after Zheng Qinwen.
Seeing the released expression on Wang Xiyu's face after the game, many people in the live broadcast room breathed a sigh of relief.
Before making her Australian Open debut, Wang Xiyu not only had a hard time winning in the main draw of the new season, but also fell out of the top 100 in the world rankings. Wang Zuo, who played under such pressure, finally did not repeat the previous mistakes when her form swayed in the second set this time, and finally won the match in two straight sets, without wasting the good luck of the first round.
It is worth mentioning that this victory also helped Wang Xiyu return to the top 100 in the world rankings, and the instant world ranking reached 95th.
Later, Wang Yafan, a good Chinese daughter-in-law, played against the Hungarian girl Bondal, and the pre-match was also considered a huge test for her.
Although Bondar is not ranked high now, he was also a former top 50 player and is still very competitive.
In the first game, Wang Yafan made everyone's hearts rise to their throats. The best defensive counterattack suddenly went silent, and was very embarrassed by Bondar's left and right, and lost the first set 3-6 without any suspense.
Wang Yafan's unfamiliar sense of alienation from tennis because of his long-term absence from the battle formation, to what extent does everyone worry? Before the second set started, some people already said that they didn't dare to watch it in the live broadcast room, for fear that Wang Yafan would be swept ugly in the end.
China's good daughter-in-law must be praised for the performance of the first set is almost vulnerable, and after the second set improves the state, whether it is the serve, or the quality of the shot in the run, it has instantly improved several notches, and soon returned the color to Bondar to the opponent with a 6-3, tying the big score in one fell swoop.
After resolving the crisis, Wang Yafan, who entered the deciding set, became more relaxed at the level of mentality, and after all the problems in the first set were solved, he did not give Bondar a chance to lead him at all, and finally locked the victory 6-4 and completed the reversal.
defeated Pierre, while allowing China's good daughter-in-law to reach the second round of the Australian Open for two consecutive years, she also reached at least the second round with six Grand Slam appearances, becoming the most stable Chinese golden flower.
Zhang Shuai played against Kessler, and was once thought to have won the draw, because the opponent started the Australian Open with the Hobart 250 title in the new season.
I thought that Kessler, who lost to Zhang Shuai at the China Open last year, would definitely try his best to take revenge this time, but I didn't expect that after the official fight, Zhang Shuai proved with practical actions that Jiang was still old and spicy, and directly swept the new Hobart championship 6-3 and 6-4, and finally won the Australian Open again.
After the three golden flowers passed the first round, fans and netizens also spoke very highly of them, bluntly saying that Wang Xiyu let everyone see what hard power is, and the game that should not be lost must not be lost; Wang Yafan used tenacity to interpret that love and hard work will win, and persistence will always be rewarded; Zhang Shuai followed the China Net, and once again demonstrated to everyone what it means to be stronger.
The only thing that makes the Chinese Golden Flower Army feel a little regretful is that Zheng Saisai and Wei Sijia failed to go hand in hand with the three of them, otherwise how spectacular the picture of the five golden flowers joining hands in the second round would be!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
