Brother Ying was promoted to Master De, Mira copied the Keys miracle record, and Zheng Qinwen was hard signed

Three minutes a day, knowing about tennis in the world. Hello fans and friends, today is Monday, March 17, 2025, and welcome to listen to the afternoon newsletter brought to you by "Home of Tennis".



This morning, Beijing time, the ATP/WTA1000 Indian Wells Open came to a wonderful end. In the Men's Singles final, 13th seed and British No.1 Draper was in red-hot form, beating Denmark's Draper 6-2 6-2 to claim his first career Masters title. This week, Draper will move up to seventh in the world rankings, becoming the fifth Englishman to break into the top 10 since the ranking system was created in 1973, joining Rusedski, Henman, Murray and Norrie.



Not only that, but Draper also set a record by collecting ATP 250 (Stuttgart), ATP 500 (Vienna) and ATP1000 (Indian Wells) Tour titles in less than 10 months, achieving a goal that many players would never achieve in a lifetime.



Draper has long been known as a rising star in tennis, but he has been physically weak and has suffered injuries from time to time. Now, he has crossed the physical hurdle and achieved a new breakthrough in his career, entering the top 10 for the first time, and also sitting firmly in the position of the British first brother, becoming a strong contender for the Grand Slam title. Come on, boy!



Women's side: In the singles final, ninth seed and 17-year-old Russian rising star Mila Andreeva came from behind to beat top seed and world No. 1 Sabalenka 2-6 6-4 6-3 to lift the WTA1000 title back-to-back in Dubai.



Some fans have noticed that Mila's winning process in Indian Wells is strikingly similar to that of American star Keys at this year's Australian Open. Both men eliminated Rybakina in the fourth round, defeated Swiatek in the semi-finals and defeated Sabalenka in the final.



From Dubai to Indian Wells, the Russian girl defeated four Grand Slam champions on the way to the title, Vondrousova, Rybakina, Swiatek and Sabalenka, including two victories over Rybakina and Swiatek. With this title, 17-year-old Mila Andreeva will move to sixth place in the world rankings this week, just one step away from breaking into the top five.



Let's focus on this week's events. Last night, Beijing time, WTA1000 Miami Station announced the women's singles main draw table, TOP8 continued to lead the game, the top eight seeds are: the top half, Sabalenka - Rybakina, Gauff - Paulini; In the bottom half, Navarro Pegula, Keith Swiatek.



China's Zheng Qinwen, seeded ninth, shares the quarter-finals with top seed Sabalenka, and will have a first-round bye against the winner of the second round between American Davis and a qualifier, and potential opponents in the third and fourth rounds against Kazakhstan's Putintseva and Rybakina for revenge. If you can pass the test, you will have to face the bitter master Sabalenka again, which can be said to have drawn a hard lot. The other two Chinese players directly entered the main event, Yuan Yue faced Czech Siniakova in the first round; Wang Xinyu against Russian Kudermetova.



Finally, let's guess and recognize. The picture below is a small pendant on a player's bag. Without prompting, can you tell whose bag it is?



In the last guess, the golfer gave the correct answer. That's right, the child in the picture is Brazilian rising star Fonseca.
