American genius Gauff defeated Vickery in three sets to reach the quarterfinals, which instantly aroused the excitement of the outside world about whether Zheng Qinwen can successfully join Gauff in the quarterfinals. Many people even shouted to China's first sister from afar: You must work hard and don't let everyone down! However, after Zheng Qinwen played 160 minutes with Kostiuk, the strong expectations of fans and netizens were disappointed. It is a pity.
Everyone is looking forward to the "Zheng Gao Battle" so much, mainly because the two of them have coached under the coach Perreriba.
Especially in just a few months after Perreriba coached Gauff after Wimbledon last year, the American talented girl's forehand and other aspects have undergone tremendous changes. She has also completed the transformation from 500 to 1000 matches. The epic three-level leap to the Grand Slam allowed Gauff to fully blossom in the tennis world, and also allowed Perreriba to join the ranks of Grand Slam champion coaches.
After leaving Gauff, Perreba switched to Zheng Qinwen's team again. In a short period of time, he helped China's first lady reach the finals of the Australian Open, which caused a great sensation in the outside world and the tennis world.
Nowadays, Zheng Qinwen and Gauff are both among the top ten players in the world. Zheng Qinwen’s supporters believe that if the Chinese No. 1 sister and Gauff meet in Stuttgart, they will definitely have a fight. Others believe that if Zheng Qinwen can defeat Gauff, then he can really look forward to the remaining three Grand Slam tournaments this year. "At the same time, it can also rectify the name of Perreriba."
Feisette leaves Although Zheng Qinwen has always made China's No. 1 sister unhappy, even when talking about it during this year's Australian Open, he still did not forget to connotate the Belgian coach. But she was able to reach the Australian Open finals, and many people believed that this was definitely due to Feisette's previous coaching. Because Perreba has just returned to Zheng Qinwen's team, it is impossible to achieve results so quickly. The most obvious point is that many problems of Zheng Qinwen still exist, and no one can see any substantial progress. Same as before. Coaching Gauff is completely different, which naturally makes people question whether Perreriba's full credit for China's first sister reaching the Australian Open finals.
The only meeting between Zheng Qinwen and Gauff so far dates back to the 2018 Orange Bowl. The two were teenage players at the time, and they met in the final. Gauff defeated Zheng Qinwen, who was two years older than herself, and won the championship.
If the two people meet again after 6 years and play against each other in a key round in Stuttgart, judging from the strong expectations and related reactions from the outside world, this focus showdown has become the most noteworthy event in the Stuttgart 500. Competition, I just don’t know if everyone can get what they want.
At that time, it seemed to the outside world that Zheng Qinwen and Gauff were only one fight away from successfully joining forces. Only the Chinese girl could defeat the Ukrainian beauty Kostyuk. This exciting moment was announced to be coming.
"I have always liked playing indoor court because it is not affected by natural factors, and here is red clay. I have always liked red clay." After Zheng Qinwen came to Stuttgart, what she said to the outside world made people look forward to the first lady of China. Her performance in the first tournament of the clay court season, especially her first match against Kostya, the Chinese No. 1 sister was able to perform a sweep even without jet lag. Naturally, many people believed that Zheng Qinwen was successful against a defeated player like Kostiuk. There was no problem in passing the customs.
In addition to Zheng Qinwen playing against Kostiuk at this year's Australian Open, the two also competed at last year's Montreal 1000. At that time, the two played three sets before the Chinese girl won in a thrilling manner.
However, these two matches took place on hard courts, so they seem to have little reference value for this clay court match. However, in the eyes of Zheng Qinwen’s supporters, the Chinese No. 1 sister’s clay-court strength is outstanding. Kostyuk will also be unable to escape the fate of defeat in this match because the Ukrainian beauty’s clay-court strength is relatively average.
Kostiuk is 21 years old this year. She is only a few months older than Zheng Qinwen.Although she played against Sigmund in Stuttgart, it seemed that her performance on clay was far less comfortable than Zheng Qinwen's, and her rhythm was not smooth enough, which made supporters of China's No. 1 sister think that the Ukrainian beauty's clay-court strength was not up to par, but From the fact that she was able to overthrow the clay court master Muguruza at the 2021 French Open, it shows that Kostiuk's clay court strength should not be as weak as imagined. This time we met in Stuttgart, if Zheng Qinwen wants to pass the test smoothly, he still cannot take it lightly. After all, Ukrainian girls are still very capable. Masters such as Pegula, Garcia, Vondrosova, and Sakari have all been defeated by her. Down.
In addition, this is the third match against Zheng Qinwen. In the words of one netizen, this is a duel like old and new hatreds. Qiustyuk, who plays with such a mentality, will not let Zheng Qinwen take it easily. Victory, the game is no less exciting than the "Zheng Gao Battle" that fans and netizens have imagined and expected.
The battle between Zheng Qinwen and Kostyuuk was indeed very tense and intense. Both Zheng Qinwen and the Ukrainian beauty were extremely hungry for victory, and no one was willing to surrender easily. After the first two sets were tied, the outcome of the game was always in suspense.
originally thought that Zheng Qinwen, who had a better record, took the lead in the final set and took a 2-0 lead to laugh until the end. Unexpectedly, after missing 5 match points and being tied by Kostyuk, the situation of the game took a turn for the worse. Quickly falling to the side of the Ukrainian beauty, Kostyuk changed from a chaser to a front-runner.
After being under greater pressure, Zheng Qinwen failed to prove himself under the severe test. In the end, he handed over the decisive set victory with a bye double fault on his own unavoidable serve and the opponent's match point. It also allowed Kostiuk to end the game in one fell swoop, finally avenging last year's losses in Montreal and this year's Australian Open, blocking Zheng Qinwen from the quarterfinals, and making it what the outside world calls the most anticipated "Zheng-Gao fight" in Stuttgart this year. Announcement of miscarriage in advance.
"The revenge battle between senior sisters and junior sisters that we were most looking forward to is gone, and our hearts are broken." After seeing Zheng Qinwen lose, many fans and netizens in the live broadcast room bluntly said that they would lose sleep. This shows that the outside world has attached great importance to this "Zheng Gao war" How high are the expectations.
1000 game was eliminated early, and the 500 game failed to reach a deeper round. Zheng Qinwen wants to make a good comeback on the clay court where he is best, no matter who thinks it is, the pressure is not small.
Of course, some people think that Zheng Qinwen’s loss may also be related to the fact that she rushed to Stuttgart in a hurry and didn’t have time to catch up with the jet lag before playing quickly. Now she bids farewell to Stuttgart in advance. I believe that after periodic adjustments, the next games of the Chinese No. 1 sister are still worth looking forward to. !
