Chinese tennis star Zheng Qinwen is on fire! 🌟 The 21-year-old stormed into the Italian Open women's singles round of 16 for the third straight year, defeating Poland's Magdalena Frech in dominant fashion (6-3, 6-2) on Sunday. Clay court drama? Zheng’s got it covered.
After splitting previous matches with Frech, Zheng cranked up the 🔥 early, racing to a 5-0 lead. Though Frech clawed back to 5-3, Zheng closed the set with a roar that echoed across Rome. 🗣️ 'I needed to let it out!' she laughed, referencing her frustration over opponents’ lob strategies.
The second set saw Zheng’s smart tactics shine. Noticing Frech’s slower footwork, she deployed killer drop shots (😮💨) to seal the deal. 'Mixing depth disrupts rhythm,' Zheng explained.
Up next? A showdown with Canada’s Bianca Andreescu, the 2019 US Open champ. Can Zheng keep her streak alive? 👀 Fans are betting on another masterclass!
