🏆 China's Zheng Qinwen has made history by clinching the gold medal in the women's Olympic singles tennis tournament at Roland Garros, Paris. In an impressive showdown, Zheng defeated Croatia's Donna Vekić with a score of 6-2, 6-3 in the final match.
Zheng's journey to gold was nothing short of remarkable. She dropped only two sets throughout the entire tournament, showcasing her exceptional skill and determination. A standout moment was her stunning victory over the reigning French Open champion and pre-tournament favorite, Iga Świątek of Poland, in the semifinals on Thursday.
This victory adds to Zheng Qinwen’s breakthrough year, which includes reaching her first Grand Slam singles final at the Australian Open in January and breaking into the world's top 10 rankings. Her stellar performance has been a source of pride for China, propelling the nation to a total of 16 gold medals at the Paris Olympic Games – surpassing second-placed Australia by four medals.
🎉 Congratulations to Zheng Qinwen for this historic achievement! Her success is inspiring the next generation of tennis players in China and around the world.
