Many times, whether at work or in life, we only focus on a few successful people. And many times, ordinary people who are living beings actually have their own wonderful. Life is like this, and so is tennis. No, yesterday, on the tennis court, there was a Chinese girl who won the duel with her opponent. Coincidentally, she faced the same opponent for two weeks in a row. So, who is this Chinese girl? And who is the opponent she meets? How did she behave? Let the humble article take you to see it.

This Chinese girl is Li Zongyu, because she has been competing in the Monastir Hope Tournament for a long time, and this Hope Tournament happens to be located in North Africa, so Li Zongyu is also nicknamed the fourth queen of North Africa by many netizens. Some fans may want to know who the other North African three queens are, they are Ma Yexin, Bai Zhuoxuan, and Yao Xinxin. Now, Bai Zhuoxuan has won the first Grand Slam victory of his career; And Ma Yexin has also won Grand Slam qualifiers; As for Yao Xinxin, he also got a place in the French Open qualifiers. Objectively speaking, Li Zongyu has fallen slightly behind in the competition with these players.

Last week, Li Zongyu defeated qualifier and Russian Sidorova in the first round of the Shenzhen Challenger and successfully advanced. In the second round, they unexpectedly defeated the tournament's second seed, American Bektash, to reach the quarterfinals. Li Zongyu was sent a duck egg by her opponent and compatriot Lu Jiajing in the quarterfinals, losing the first city. However, just when many people thought that Li Zongyu would be defeated, she burst out with huge energy and defeated her opponent in two sets in a row to reach the semifinals. In the semi-finals, in a duel with another compatriot Guo Hanyu, Li Zongyu took the lead and let his opponent fall behind in the set score for the first time in the Shenzhen Challenger. Although in the end, because of the gap in strength, he failed to maintain the advantage to the end, was reversed by the opponent, and was out of the game with hatred, but Li Zongyu's performance was still commendable.

WeekDue to his low world ranking, Li Zongyu can only start from the qualifying round of the Lu'an Challenge. She defeated compatriot Sun Yingqun and Thailand's Pintan in quick succession to reach the main event. In the first round of the main competition, Li Zongyu met compatriot Lu Jiajing again. Perhaps because he had a confrontation with his opponent last week and was already familiar with his technical characteristics, in this duel, he was not brought to the set by the opponent to see seven, let alone tie seven, and Li Zongyu won two sets and successfully advanced. It is worth mentioning that after a wave of three consecutive victories, Li Zongyu's instant world ranking has reached No. 316, which is the highest world ranking she has obtained since entering professional tennis. In the next round, Li Zongyu will fight against South Korea's first sister Zhang Xiuzhen, can she win and continue to break through herself? Let's wait and see.
