In the women's singles final of the Riyadh WTA year-end finals that ended in the early morning of November 10th, Beijing time, Chinese players Zheng Qinwen fought fiercely after 3 sets. 1-2 was reversed by the American player Gauff , ranked third in the world, and finished the year-end runner-up.
Although the runner-up at the end of the year is already a very remarkable achievement for Zheng Qinwen, who participated in the competition for the first time. However, the regret that he was only one serve away from the championship made Zheng Qinwen almost shed tears at the award ceremony after the game.
After receiving the runner-up prize, Zheng Qinwen seemed to have tears in her eyes, but she was strong and chose to continue smiling and gave a very high emotional intelligence speech.
In this choked speech, Zheng Qinwen not only thanked the organizers, staff, his team and the fans at the scene, but also generously congratulated the champion Gauff, hoping that both of them would get better in the future. Zheng Qinwen's speech also made Gauff nod frequently in approval. The two people who are both born in 2000 have a feeling of "sympathizing with each other".
After her speech, Zheng Qinwen put her hands on her chest and responded to the roar of applause from the fans at the scene again, and then gave up the stage to the champion Gauff. This series of actions fully demonstrated her character as an excellent athlete.
It is worth noting that 11 years ago, Zheng Qinwen’s senior Li Na also won one set in the year-end finals, but was reversed by Serena Williams in two consecutive sets, and finally finished second. Two generations of China's first sisters both made history in the year-end finals, but they also left behind regrets. Fortunately, Zheng Qinwen is only 22 years old. She will still have more opportunities in the future to make up for the loss on the night of the year-end finals in Riyadh.
