Chinese tennis sensation Wu Yibing delivered a thrilling performance at the Shanghai Masters on Friday, defeating Chile's Nicolas Jarry 6-2, 6-1 to advance to the tournament's round of 32 for the first time since 2017. 🌟 The wildcard player dominated the court with precision serves and relentless energy, leaving fans in awe of his comeback momentum.
Wu, who recently claimed his first ATP Tour win since the U.S. Open, broke Jarry early in the first set and never looked back. 🚀 "I felt great—this might be one of the best matches of my career," Wu said post-match. His confidence shone through, especially in the second set, where he raced to a 5-0 lead before sealing victory with a powerful serve.
Meanwhile, Buyunchaokete of China faced a tough exit after a 6-3, 6-4 loss to American Alex Michelsen, a reversal of their U.S. Open clash. Michelsen's consistent serves and breaks kept Buyunchaokete on the defensive, ending the home crowd's hopes for a double celebration.
"Jarry is a heavy hitter. I prepared a lot for this battle," Wu added, highlighting his strategic focus. 🧠💪
