Zheng Qinwen is happy to mention the first sister in Asia, Charleston is ranked third in odds, can he counterattack to win the championship?

After the latest WTA ranking list was announced, Zheng Qinwen's fans finally breathed a sigh of relief, and China's first sister temporarily won a phased victory in the ranking defense battle.

Although Zheng Qinwen was blocked by Swiatek and Sabalenka in Indian Wells and Miami respectively, and failed to refresh the best record, with the quarterfinals of the North American Sunshine Doubles, Zheng Qinwen still returned to the top eight in the world. It is very gratifying that they did not fall out of the top 10 in the world after the North American Sunshine doubles.

The latest ranking shows that Zheng Qinwen's ranking has advanced one place from the original ninth place to eighth place, and he also replaced Rybakina as the first sister in Asia.

Chinese men's and women's singles have become the first brother and the first sister in Asia at the same time, and such a grand scene has appeared for the first time in the Chinese tennis world. Some people said with emotion that this incident was unthinkable half a year ago, but they didn't expect Zhang Zhizhen and Zheng Qinwen to synchronize in this aspect this year, creating a new history of Chinese tennis.

In addition, when talking about Zheng Qinwen replacing Rybakina's position as the first sister in Asia, more fans and netizens quipped, "Xiao Zheng feels more like an Asian queen than Nana no matter how she looks at it." ”

Some people say that it has something to do with the two of them at the Miami 1000 that just ended.

Rybakina's appearance in Miami this year made the outside world once optimistic that the defending runner-up could enter the deeper round, but she was unexpectedly blocked by the American girl Kruger, knocking her down in the second round, which also set the tone for her to hand over the Asian first sister throne in advance. It's a pity that Kruger, who defeated Rybakina, didn't go far in the end, and was eliminated by Zheng Qinwen in straight sets in the fourth round.

A person who won Rybakina was finally defeated by Zheng Qinwen, naturally in the eyes of some fans and netizens, it seems that Zheng Qinwen is more worthy of the title of Asia's first sister.

After Zheng Qinwen became the first sister in Asia, many people also paid great attention to whether they could finally win the first championship of the new season in the Charleston 500 with this joy.

In the eyes of many people, there are many masters in the 1000 tournament, and it may not be easy for Zheng Qinwen to win the championship, but the competition in the 500 tournament is significantly lower than that of the 1000 tournament, and the two highest-level tour titles won by Zheng Qinwen so far in his career are both from the 500 tournament.

Then, Zheng Qinwen, who rarely participates in the 500 races, is now willing to relegate to the Charleston 500 races, and of course many people think that he has great hopes of winning the championship.

However, according to the latest odds released by Charleston, Zheng Qinwen is only in third place, and Pegula, who just won the runner-up in Miami, and Keith, the new Australian Open champion, are in the top two on this odds list.

Seeing the odds of winning the women's singles championship, some people said with concern that Zheng Qinwen, who thought that he had a high hope of winning the championship in the 500 tournament, can still win the first championship of the new season in Charleston, "It seems that there are two obstacles in the way, Dafu and Miss Key, and Xiao Zheng will most likely return empty-handed in the end." ”

Although Zheng Qinwen did not become the first favorite to win the championship, the gap between the 1 to 6 of the Chinese first sister and Pegula's 1 to 4 and Case's 1 to 5.5 is not particularly large. In other words, even if Zheng Qinwen fails to be at the top of the odds list, he still has a chance to win the championship.

If in terms of record and current ranking, Zheng Qinwen is indeed inferior to Pegula and Case, this is a fact. However, in terms of strength on the dirt ground, this is Zheng Qinwen's advantage.

Pegula and Keys are actually better at hard court combat, but Charleston is a clay court event, which is precisely where Zheng Qinwen's advantage lies.

Some people bluntly said that Zheng Qinwen chose to participate in the Charleston 500 after the North American Sunshine Double Championship, which should be aiming for the final championship. Pegula and Keys seem to have good strength, but fighting on the dirt ground, whether they can face Zheng Qinwen across the net in the end and not be eliminated by others in advance, everything is unknown.

Therefore, some fans and netizens optimistically said that it doesn't matter if Zheng Qinwen doesn't have an advantage in the odds of winning the championship, as long as he shows his "shot put topspin" technique on the dirt ground, "As long as Xiao Zheng plays this weapon smoothly, even if he really fights Pegula and Case, I believe our Queen Wen will have a certain chance of winning." ”

Judging from the current public opinion reaction, there are not a few people who are optimistic that Zheng Qinwen will win the Charleston 500 championship. Can the first sister of China successfully win this championship under the condition of being pinned on high hopes, and have a double happiness on the basis of the title of the first sister in Asia just mentioned?
