French Open quarterfinals preview: Akamuseti will meet in the semifinals, Zheng Qinwen beats Sabalenka!

The French Open is getting better! In the first half of the women's singles and the men's singles in the second half of the competition, a number of famous players were born to reach the quarterfinals. Let's look at the next matchup:

Alcaraz vs. Paul

Musetti vs Tiafoe

For the first time since Agassi, the two American men's singles players reached the quarter-finals at the same time, and even Roddick and Fritz, who were at least Grand Slam runners-up at the time, failed to do so.

Although the Americans have always been the protagonists of the tennis court, they do not have much advantage on clay. As far as domestic competitions are concerned, only one of Houston's tournaments is on clay. Tiafoe has won this tournament before. Paul has been a no-brainer on clay to date, but he has reached the semi-finals of the last two Rome Masters. It can be said that it is not surprising that at least two people who have reached the semifinals of a Grand Slam are among the quarterfinals of this year's French Open.

However, it will be extremely difficult for the two to meet in the semi-finals, as they will face the two most consistent players in the entire clay season this year. Needless to say, Acre has won the Monte Carlo and Rome Masters in a row to achieve the grand slam of clay, while Musetti has also reached the semi-finals of all three Masters tournaments and is expected to achieve four consecutive hits! The Italian defeated his opponent without a win against Rune and reached the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam for the first time since Wimbledon last year! I am optimistic that the two friends will continue to soar to the semi-finals!

Zheng Qinwen vs. Sabalenka

Svitolina vs. Schwartek

Both Women's Singles quarter-finals were very intense yesterday! Schwartek came close to repeating the same mistake when he faced fellow Grand Slam champion Rybakina. In the first set, she was easily sent a fritter, and in the second set, she was broken again, but fortunately, the queen of clay was still in Roland Garros, and she stopped the precipice in time to win the deciding set. This battle will surely be a shot in the arm for his self-confidence. The next round against the Ukrainians should be passed.

Similarly, Zheng Qinwen did not panic when facing a strong opponent with full firepower and even surpassed himself in the winning score of the whole court, and dared to show his sword at a critical moment, and finally achieved a breakthrough in the best result of the French Open. After the victory, she fell to the ground to celebrate, just like last year's Olympics. Therefore, against Sabalenka, who had won at the Rome Masters before, Zheng Qinwen did not have a chance to win. Just like her singing after the game, the sun never sets, let her state not fall, go fight! Now that you've seen the scenery over the mountains, why not come again!(Source: Tennis Home Author: Luo Cheng Qiye)
