Beijing time on October 3, as a three-set fierce battle came to an end, Zheng Qinwen reversed the double defeat of Anisimova with a total score of 2-1. It's just that Zheng Qinwen's victory was not easy. Not only did she lose the first set 3-6, but she also lost only three games in the next two sets 6-1 and 6-2, but in fact the game was still extremely difficult. Zheng Qinwen hit 14 aces and Anisimova scored 1. She fought fiercely until the early morning again. She advanced to the quarterfinals of the China Open for the first time in her career. It was also the third time this year and the fifth time in her career that she advanced to the quarterfinals of the WTA1000 tournament. Zheng Qinwen topped the list of hot searches. She warmly took photos with the fans after the game. During the interview, she also thanked the fans for watching the game so late and cheering for her, and said she couldn't sleep for more than three hours.

Zheng Qinwen has five WTA1000 quarterfinals in his career, as follows:

Zheng Qinwen ushered in a qualitative leap this year. He has advanced to the quarterfinals of the WTA1000 competition three times, exceeding the total in his past career only twice. It's just that Zheng Qinwen failed to go further after the quarterfinals of the WTA1000 competition in the past four times.

Zheng Qinwen entered the quarterfinals of the WTA1000 again this year at the China Open. It was also the first time in her career that she advanced to the quarterfinals of the China Open. Zheng Qinwen will face the 17-year-old rising star Mira Andreeva in his next match. Zheng Qinwen is expected to win and reach the semi-finals, thus tying Li Na 's best record at the China Golden Flower China Open.

Zheng Qinwen and Zhang Shuai both advanced to the top eight of the China Open, setting a second record in history. The last time two Chinese golden flowers entered the top eight of the China Open women's singles was Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang in 2018.

Zheng Qinwen is now among the top eight of the China Open and has already received 215 points and a bonus of 185,000 US dollars (approximately 1.3 million yuan). But obviously Zheng Qinwen’s goal is far more than that. Her goal is to win the championship. After the game, Zheng Qinwen praised her opponent Anisimova for playing tenaciously and thanked the fans for watching the game so late.
