China’s promising player Yuan Yue and Italy’s Paolini are competing today; the match details are illustrated below.

2. At 4:30 this afternoon, [4] Alexandrova will face off against [WC] Yuan Yue.

Pre-match predictions

1. Paolini, ranked in the world’s top eight, is very strong and is expected to confidently defeat Kudermetova, likely winning 2-0 in straight sets to advance.
2. Yuan Yue has good ability and advanced to the second round by defeating Wang Xinyu in the first round. Her opponent, Alexandrova, is very strong and more experienced. Hopefully, Yuan Yue will perform excellently and cause an upset.

Additionally, last night China’s Zhu Lin caused a major upset by defeating the top seed Andreyeva. Recently, Andreyeva has been struggling, losing repeatedly to lower-ranked players. It shows that even professional athletes go through slumps. We should maintain a calm attitude and not criticize players for losses. Currently, Zheng Qinwen is also in a slump, with no chances this 2025 season and her ranking likely to drop further. Let’s stay patient and look forward to her full recovery and success next year!
