Emulating Li Na step-by-step as Qinwen Zheng closes on Australian Open title and becomes second Chinese player to reach top 10
WTAThursday, 25 January 2024 at 05:00
Young tennis star Qinwen Zheng has become the latest Chinese
player to join the top-10 list in the WTA ranking.
The 21-year-old is often regarded as one of the most
highly-rated young players currently playing in the women’s singles category. She
had an impressive outing in the 2023 season as well where she ended up playing in
the quarterfinal of the US Open where she lost to the current world number two
Belarus’ Aryna Sabalenka in straight sets with a score of 6-1, 6-4.
Zheng lived up to the hype as she booked her place in
the semifinal of the Australian Open after defeating Anna Kalinskaya in the
last-eight clash of the mega-event with a score of 6-7, 6-3, 6-1.
That performance ended up rewarding Zheng who has become the
youngest player from China and the second overall after Li Na to book her place in the top-10 of the WTA ranking.
Zheng will face Ukraine’s
Dayana Yastremska in the semifinal of the mega-event. It will be the first time
when both players will face off and therefore, it is likely to be a feisty contest.
Yastremska booked her place in the semifinal of the Australian Open after
beating the Czech Republic’s Linda Noskova with a score of 6-3, 6-4.

- He's a Cool Dude (and very funny guy). Always fun to be in the presence of Tomasz. Something he mentioned here is what many who have coached at any level can relate to -- "the crazy parents committee". It relates to my coaching experiences in kid's sports. My #1 complaint about coaching kids is Problem Parents!! It can be a very abusive, even violent situation with many parents when it comes to their kid's sports. In the end, it was no longer worth the potential (all too common) altercations for me and I quit. But thanks to Tomasz, I now have a name for those (you?) people: The Crazy Parents Committee.mandoist26-09-2024
- She's no longer a tennis player; apparently it wasn't a priority. So why the publicity?mandoist26-09-2024
