CCTV-5 and Yangshipin are live streaming the second round match between Wang Xinyu and Zhang Shuai.

This match is played in a best-of-three sets format. Currently, both players are selecting sides and warming up, with the match about to begin.

Wang Xinyu is ranked 34th worldwide and seeded 31st at the China Open, having had a first-round bye. She will face Zhang Shuai, ranked 112th, whose singles performance is not as strong as her doubles. Tonight’s winner will move on to the last 32. Historically, Wang Xinyu leads their head-to-head 3-0. I favor Wang Xinyu because there is a noticeable gap in their abilities. My personal prediction is Wang Xinyu will win 2-0 against Zhang Shuai.
