Whether Zheng Qinwen can continue the law that the top seed must win the championship will become the queen's highlight, and the sparring partner will leave Riba to replace him

The first grass court 500 Queen's Cup after the French Open once again came a heart-wrenching news, China's first sister Zheng Qinwen has not yet appeared in this event, and once again became the only seedling of China's Golden Flower singles.



This year's Queen's Cup has a different meaning than previous years! Previously, the tournament had been dominated by men's competition, but now it is back on the WTA Tour after 52 years, which has led to a women's competition this year.


Because of this, as the first stop of the grass court season on the grass court tour, and an important event after the French Open, the women's line-up for the Queen's Cup is not as luxurious as the Grand Slam, but it is also quite gorgeous, with former Wimbledon champion Rybakina and Krejcikova, Navarro, Zheng Qinwen, Schneider, Keys and many other famous players in action.


Before the draw for this tournament came out, China's first sister Zheng Qinwen had already received a piece of good news in advance, due to the withdrawal of the rich American girl Pegula, Zheng Qinwen was quickly promoted to the top seed.



In an interview before the game, Zheng Qinwen said that his style of play is also suitable for grass, and there are other reasons for his poor results in the previous season on grass, "Last year was because of injuries, which caused me to not be able to play well at Wimbledon, and the year before last was because I had just changed the whole team, and I had not adapted to it at that time." ”


Zheng Qinwen's words instantly made everyone interested in her performance in the Queen's Cup this year. The reason is that the first sister of China has so far maintained the rhythm of winning 100% of the tournament as the top seed.


Last year, Zheng Qinwen played as the top seed in the Palermo 250 and Tokyo 500, and both of them succeeded. So, with the top seed in the Queen's Cup this time, can she continue her unbeaten run? It is currently one of the biggest attractions of this year's Queen's Cup.



Compared with Zheng Qinwen's current high expectations, what happened to Zhang Shuai and Zhu Lin is a little embarrassing!


This year's Queen's Cup originally had three Chinese golden flowers in the event, the difference is that Zheng Qinwen directly entered the main competition by virtue of his ranking, while Zhang Shuai and Zhu Lin needed to start from the qualifying round.


Zhu Lin announced her retirement due to physical reasons before swinging the racket, instantly turning the three golden flowers into two!


Zhang Shuai's form in the first round of the qualifying round was explosive, and after sweeping the British girl Blake 6-3 and 6-2, everyone was very optimistic about her advancing to the main match and Zheng Qinwen's teacher.



"This is the fastest time I've started a grass tournament in years, and I used to think that it was impossible to play well because I was still on clay, so I definitely didn't fit in. But this time I came up and played, but I didn't expect it to feel very good. Zhang Shuai's words of feeling good about herself in an interview after the game made everyone optimistic that she could break through from the qualifying round to the main match.


Judging from the performance of Zhang Shuai in the decisive round of the qualifying round, she does have such strength, but she didn't expect that in the end, God still played a big joke with the 36-year-old Chinese veteran, fans and netizens.


Everyone feels sorry for Zhang Shuai, mainly because her performance in the Queen's Cup qualifying tournament this time is completely different from the French Open qualifying tournament.



In the end, the loss to Tomjanovic was mainly due to the intensity of the confrontation in the game, which led to physical problems at critical moments, which made all Zhang Shuai's previous efforts in vain.


After taking the lead in the first set, Zhang Shuai once held a 4-1 lead in the second set. However, Tomjanovic's tenacity completely exceeded everyone's expectations, and after tying the score and winning the second set tie-break, she finally managed to seize the opportunity to reverse due to Zhang Shuai's physical problems.



Zhang Shuai was knocked to the ground when he was only one step away from the main event, which also made Zheng Qinwen the only Chinese golden flower singles seedling in the Queen's Cup.


When everyone was deeply distressed that Zheng Qinwen had to fight alone again, another incident in London also made everyone give a thumbs up to Pereriba, the coach of China's first sister.


Zheng Qinwen's clay season ended early, and attentive fans and netizens found that the former TOP100 professional player sparring partner who had accompanied China's first sister to compete in the clay season also left the team, "The IP address has been displayed in Germany!" ”



I don't know if I didn't find a suitable sparring partner, or if the new sparring partner was not in place, forcing Pereriba to take on both the role of coach and sparring partner, and personally played as Zheng Qinwen's practice partner.


In this regard, many fans and netizens humorously said that with Pereriba's dedication to bending and stretching, Zheng Qinwen should do his best to score deeper rounds in the Queen's Cup, where can such a good coach be found, it is too down-to-earth.



At present, Zheng Qinwen's debut in the Queen's Cup has been confirmed, and the first Chinese sister will make her debut on June 11, Beijing time, against the winner between Kessler and Jones!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
