After three rounds of the French Open qualifying tournament on the opening day, Roland Garros finally came with exciting news, 36-year-old veterans Zhang Shuai and Wang Xiyu lived up to expectations and finally raised the banner of Chinese tennis to the second round!
Although there are as many as six Chinese players participating in this French Open qualifying tournament, their signing luck is not good, and their respective states have one or another problem.
Especially after Shi Han, Wei Sijia and Yao Xinxin suffered a round of tours on the same day, the promotion fate of Zhang Shuai, Wang Xiyu and Wu Yixuan, the only seedling of the Chinese men's tennis, was particularly worrying.
Zhang Shuai is the most favored against Australian girl Hunter, in addition to the previous experience of Chinese Jinhua defeating opponents, and she won the recently concluded Gifu 100K event in Japan, but considering that Zhang Shuai's form after winning the championship suddenly became wavering again, and failed to continue this momentum, everyone is still worried about whether the 36-year-old veteran can advance.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the game began, Zhang Shuai completely dispelled everyone's concerns.
After the first set was tied at 1-1, Zhang Shuai suddenly exerted his strength and came to the commanding height of the first set 5-1 in four games in a row. Although Hunter desperately resisted and tried to turn the tables against the wind, putting great pressure on the Chinese veteran, Zhang Shuai quickly stabilized at the critical moment, held the lead tightly in his own hands, and took the next game 6-3.
The second set went the same way as the first set!
Taking advantage of Hunter's failure to recover from the loss in the first set, Zhang Shuai quickly took a 5-2 lead while strengthening his fighting firepower.
In the first set of his own serve, the 36-year-old Chinese veteran withstood Hunt's frantic attack and saved four break points to finally seal the second set 6-2 victory, ending the match in one fell swoop and getting the French Open qualifying tournament for the Chinese tennis team.
After the game, everyone praised Zhang Shuai's performance, and bluntly said that the 36-year-old Chinese Jinhua is really young, and she played at a level that can be called the peak.
In this game against Hunter, how good was Zhang Shuai's performance? Not only did he hit an astonishing 9 aces, but he also won 37-9 in terms of winning points, crushing the Australian girl, and winning was too domineering.
"If the handsome sister can continue this form, everyone can wait for the good news that she will advance to the main draw of the French Open." In the eyes of many people, Zhang Shuai's state and feel are hot, if he can maintain his hand, it is no problem to win Walket next, and there is almost no suspense in the final round of laughter.
After Zhang Shuai advanced to the second round of the French Open qualifiers, Wang Zuo's girl Xiyu also followed in the footsteps of the eldest sister and came to accompany Zhang Shuai.
Compared with Zhang Shuai's victory against Hunter, Wang Xiyu's game really has a strong game characteristics that Wang Zuo girl is used to, and it doesn't seem to be Wang Xiyu's game if it doesn't give you a little tension and makes your palms sweat.
Competing with Yaničjevic for the second round of the French Open qualifying tournament, seeing that Wang Xiyu was beaten 1-6 by his opponent in the first set, the fans and netizens in the live broadcast room immediately made two voices: some people shouted that they couldn't stand it, afraid that what they would see in the end was that the girl around Wang was swept away; Some people bluntly said that most of their hearts are cold, Wang Xiyu is likely to be out, and if you insist on watching the game, you should be cheering for Miss Wang Zuo!
Just when almost everyone thought that Wang Xiyu was bound to lose, from the second set, Wang Zuo directly said no to everyone, and suddenly became extremely brave like a chicken blood, and quickly gave Yanijevic a 6-1 in return.
Although Wang Xiyu tied the big score and brought the game back to the balance, everyone's worries about Wang Zuo's girl have not been lifted. Because of the three-set competition, it is normal for Wang Xiyu to play a good set, but it is really hard to say whether he can still be so strong in the deciding set and win smoothly without other unexpected episodes or inexplicable losses. The implication is that Wang Xiyu is still likely to lose.
This time, Wang Xiyu did not let everyone accompany her on the roller coaster in the deciding set, let alone an unexpected collapse, and performed quite well and steadily, directly won the deciding set 6-2, and reversed strongly with a big score of 2-1 to advance to the second round.
It's a pity that the Chinese men's singles Miao Wu Yixuan, who participated in the French Open qualifying tournament, failed to maintain the winning streak of the Chinese army, and played against the former US Open champion Cilic, who was passive throughout the whole process, and was finally swept away by Cilic 6-2 and 6-3, and the French Open journey ended early.
From the original thought that many people thought that the Chinese tennis six-person team was very likely to be wiped out in the first round of the French Open qualifiers, to the two who successfully advanced to the second round, everyone also praised the performance of Zhang Shuai and Wang Xiyu, and bluntly said that the key moment is still the most powerful Jinhua, and I am very much looking forward to the next performance of the two!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
