Will Zheng Qinwen have a surprise when he challenges Sabalenka for the sixth time? The pre-match has been slighted by the bookmaker

After refusing to be avenged by Kruger, Zheng Qinwen challenged the mountain of Sabalenka for the sixth time, completely soaring the crowd of Miami women's singles to the highest point.

Because Zheng Qinwen defeated the American girl Kruger in the first round of the Australian Open last year, when he met her in Miami this time, everyone was still worried that Zheng Qinwen would suffer revenge and miss the quarterfinals with Sabalenka.

Kruger has been in good form at this Miami 1000, as evidenced by her back-to-back victories over Rybakina and Fernandes. In addition, before the match against Zheng Qinwen, Kruger suddenly withdrew from the doubles competition, which made people feel that she was determined to take revenge, and if she didn't succeed, she would become a benevolent.

is in good condition and full of confidence, Kruger made a whole drama before the game, which also made fans and netizens shout to her one after another when they were worried about Zheng Qinwen, they must take the lead, and finally refresh the North American Sunshine doubles record, and improve the current back-to-back top 16 to back-to-back top eight.

Zheng Qinwen's performance was quite satisfying to everyone, taking advantage of Kruger's problems in details from the first set, and broke the American girl's two service games in a row with full firepower, so as to take the lead 6-2.

Kruger, who was relieved in the second set, finally returned to his normal level when he resisted, and played with Zheng Qinwen inextricably, neither of them allowed the other to extend the lead in the score, and pushed the second set into a tie-break.

It's a pity that in the tie-break, Kruger, who relied too much on his feel, was still a little worse than Zheng Qinwen in the handling of key points, and finally lost 0-2 and swallowed two consecutive defeats against Zheng Qinwen.

With this victory over Kruger, Zheng Qinwen has once again achieved a new achievement in the North American Sunshine Doubles: for the first time in his career, he reached the quarterfinals in both Indian Wells and Miami!

After the game, when everyone commented on Zheng Qinwen's trip to Miami, they bluntly said that this time the first Chinese sister simply fell into the encirclement of American girls, the debut against Davis, the third round against Townsend, and the eighths final against Kruger, these three American girls are stronger than one another, "It is not easy for Xiao Zheng to win three consecutive victories against local players, but dare to win the emperor once?" ”

If the quarter-final against Kruger is the real challenge for Zheng Qinwen, then challenging the world No. 1 Sabalenka in the quarter-finals is an absolute overturn for China's first sister.

Up to now, Zheng Qinwen and Sabalenka have fought five times, and it is difficult to find a victory for a Chinese sister!

The fate of the two began at the 2023 US Open, when Zheng Qinwen also believed that he could go further after reaching the quarterfinals for the first time in a Grand Slam, but he was ruthlessly defeated by Sabalenka in the quarterfinals.

The second meeting was at last year's Australian Open, Zheng Qinwen made a major breakthrough in the Grand Slam arena and reached the final for the first time, but unfortunately this time the Chinese first sister could not escape the fate of being swept in two sets.

The third time was at last year's US Open, where the two met in the quarter-finals, where Zheng Qinwen was defeated in just three games.

The fourth was at last year's Martial Open 1000. This was Zheng Qinwen's first 1000 final, but unfortunately after meeting Sabalenka, it was still a nightmare for the Chinese sister who wanted to win her first career 1000 championship on home soil. However, this time Zheng Qinwen can be regarded as making people see the progress, from the previous fights were lost in two sets, this time he finally got one set from the hard court queen.

The fifth meeting was at last year's year-end finals in Riyadh. This contest is the most exciting, everyone wants to know whether Zheng Qinwen, who lost Sabalenka at the Wuhan Open, can continue to cause trouble for her in the year-end finals, and even bring surprises, but I didn't expect the three-set battle at the Wuhan Open to look like a flash in the pan, and in the end, she was swept by the Belarusian girl in two sets and suffered a black start to the group stage debut.

What happens after five meetings and just one set from Sabalenka, and the sixth time in Miami to hit the best record? This also made Zheng Qinwen's showdown over the mountain attract much attention.

Fans of the first sister of China said that after Xiao Zheng found confidence and form from coach Pereriba, it was definitely enough for Sabalenka to drink a pot; Other fans and netizens believe that it is not easy to climb the mountain of the world's number one, "There is nothing else to ask for, I just hope not to lose too ugly." ”

Judging from the current reaction of public opinion, there are both people who support Zheng Qinwen's success and failure, and the debate is also fierce. And many people think that Zheng Qinwen is difficult to defeat Sabalenka and will eventually stop in the quarterfinals, which also stems from the bookmaker's contempt for China's first sister before the game, and the latest odds for China's first sister to win the championship are also relatively low!

So, can the first Chinese sister face Sabalenka this time with a hardcore, and really let people see that there is no gap between her and Gao Shan, or that the gap is narrowing? See!(Source: Tennis House Author: Starry Sky of Moon River)
