Zheng Qinwen and Sabalenka said that they could play a five-set battle, but Swiatek refused to be upset

Zheng Qinwen and Sabalenka met comfortably at the French Open, and Swiatek is now one step closer to successfully defending her title.

At present, many people are still apprehensive when talking about the next focus battle between Zheng Qinwen and Sabalenka, because the first sister of China almost missed the appointment in advance!

In this match against Samsonova, it was indeed as many people predicted before the game, if Zheng Qinwen lost, it would definitely be a two-set loss, and a win would most likely require a three-set battle.

Before the start of this game, many fans and netizens described Samsonova as Zheng Qinwen's bitter master, and the fans of the first sister of China still have a lot of opinions, bluntly saying that the 2-3 record is a bitter master. Some people even think that Zheng Qinwen's current strength has already risen to a new level, and it is not a problem to sweep the Russian girl in two sets, "Calling milk tea Xiao Zheng's bitter master is an insult to the first sister." ”

But after the two officially met, it was discovered that Samsonova was still one of the dangerous opponents who could pose a threat to Zheng Qinwen.

Especially after the Russian girl broke Zheng Qinwen's serve in the ninth game of the first set and came to the commanding height of the first set like 5-4, many people at that time shouted that their hearts were half cold.

Some people bluntly said that it was fortunate that Zheng Qinwen seized the fluctuating opportunity of Samsonova in the service game and narrowly won the tie-break after that, otherwise judging from the Russian girl's 6-1 score in the second set, her French Open journey would have been over.

Looking back on this match, many people believe that Zheng Qinwen was able to win the deciding set 6-3 in the end, mainly due to her physical superiority over Samsonova.

After defeating Samsonova, Zheng Qinwen was also very interesting, falling directly to the ground, so that some fans and netizens humorously said that Xiao Zheng celebrated the victory in this way, giving people the feeling that it did not feel like a promotion, but as if he had won a Grand Slam final.

However, some people emphasize that the best record in the French Open was only the round of 16 to the top 8 now, and it is understandable to celebrate so excitedly, not to mention that this is the first time that Chinese players have reached this height in the French Open after 14 years after Li Na in 2011!

In addition, Zheng Qinwen admitted after the match that Samsonova had put a lot of pressure on herself, but also deliberately emphasized another thing, after three sets of hard fighting, she did not have any problems with her physical fitness, and she could play a five-set battle on par with men's players!

"My body feels good and I have a lot of energy. If I'm going to play a five-set fight, I'm going to keep up with the challenge. But we don't have five sets, what can I do? I have to give it my all in every game here. Seeing Zheng Qinwen's words after the game, everyone is looking forward to her eighth meeting with Sabalenka.

After Zheng Qinwen defeated Samsonova in three sets, before the battle between Sabalenka and Anisimova was not decided, everyone was worried that the Belarusian girl would miss the quarterfinals with Zheng Qinwen in advance, because when she talked about the American girl before the match, she bluntly said that she didn't want to touch her, in addition to the fierce fight every time, and the 2-5 deficit in terms of the fight record was a bit too much.

It is precisely because of this tension that Sabalenka was full before the match that everyone is very worried about whether the world number one will be upset by Anisimova.

Facts have proved that the current Sabalenka is indeed not the opponent she was when she played against the American girl before, she is on the line, both offensive and defensive, and in the face of such a Belarusian girl, Anisimova wants to rewrite the record of the two to 6 to 2, of course, it is extremely difficult.

Sabalenka and Anisimova met this time, and since she won the first set 7-5, the world No.1's performance in all aspects has actually taken the suspense out of the match.

In the end, the Belarusian girl did not give Anisimova a chance to turn the tables, and directly sealed the second set victory with 6-3 to end the battle, and advanced to the quarterfinals of the French Open for three consecutive years and Zheng Qinwen achieved a meeting, and the French Open championship that she had been thinking about was one step closer.

While everyone gave Sabalenka a round of applause, they also gave a round of applause to Swiatek, and the Polish girl is now one step closer to successfully defending her title.

In this match against Rybakina, after swallowing fritters in the first set, Swiatek once made everyone think that she was very likely to be upset, and there was a high probability that she would fail to defend her title in advance.

What must be given a thumbs up to the Polish girl is that after being cornered, instead of collapsing like before, it let everyone see that the clay queen with a big heart and excellent psychological quality has finally returned, and finally defeated Rybakina's ambition in two consecutive sets 6-3 and 7-5, achieving a big comeback and locking a place in the top half of the quarterfinals.

Sabalenka, Zheng Qinwen and Swiatek have advanced to the quarter-finals, which has also made the competition in the top half more intense. Especially for the eighth meeting between Zheng Qinwen and Sabalenka, everyone describes it as revenge or a continuation of the battle over the mountain, eager to know whether the Belarusian girl can successfully avenge the defeat in Rome in the end, or the first sister of China can continue to successfully climb the mountain, which has become one of the most anticipated duels in the women's singles field!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
