The WTA Prague Open continues today (July 25), and Wang Xinyu seems to be targeted during her double-header matches, which are live on Youku. Here are the details.
In last night's quarterfinal, after the first set of Wang Xinyu vs. Belek, Wang won 6-4, leading the match 1-0. The organizers then paused the match due to darkness, delaying it until today.
The schedule for today’s WTA Prague Open is shown below. The first match is scheduled for 5 PM today, featuring Wang Xinyu vs. Belek. This match is expected to last around 30 to 60 minutes, and given Wang Xinyu's current form, she should be able to defeat her opponent and advance to the semifinals.
If Wang Xinyu indeed advances to the semifinals, the fourth match will follow.This will likely take place around 10:30 or 11 PM tonight.In the semifinals, Wang Xinyu will face Noskova.
Belek is a local player, while Noskova is the number one seed in this tournament and also a local player.Wang Xinyu faced multiple controversial calls from the umpire during the round of 16, and in the quarterfinals, her match was pushed to the last slot.This was due to the majority of players being local competitors.Additionally, the match was delayed again under the pretext of darkness.Wang Xinyu refused to accept this, stating that they could continue since it wasn't dark yet.As a result, Wang Xinyu may have to play two matches today, but it seems futile.This raises suspicions that Wang, the beauty of the court, might be targeted.
As of July 2025, the latest world rankings show Noskova at 32 and Wang Xinyu at 40.This indicates that the skill gap between them isn't significant, or they are evenly matched. However, stamina is Wang Xinyu's weakness, especially with today's double-header and less than five hours of rest in between. If the semifinal goes to a third set, it's likely that Wang Xinyu will struggle with her endurance. Therefore, in tonight's semifinal, Wang Xinyu faces a tough challenge.I sincerely hope Wang Xinyu can overcome these difficulties, defeat her opponent, and even win the championship! It would be a slap in the face to those who don't deserve respect, especially some Western critics!
