Shang Juncheng explained the reason for the injury in the post-match interview: "In my first training session at the Australian Open, I had a problem with my right foot hurting when I wore tennis shoes. Took two painkillers before the game and two more during the game. After two or three rounds of the game, I gradually felt a tingling pain, and the pain was like a bone crack, although it was a bit exaggerated, but it was really this feeling. At almost 1:2 in the second set, I could barely walk. Overall, it was a relatively high-quality game, but there really wasn't much to sum up, after all, the body was not in the ideal state. ”

Yuan Yue lost 4-6, 6-4, 3-6 to 27th seed and former French Open runner-up Pavlyuchenkova, and has suffered a first-round loss in all of her last seven Grand Slam tournaments. Yuan Yue stubbornly equalized from a set-down deficit and once broke first in the deciding set to take a 2-0 lead, but she still lost to the more experienced onesPavlyuchenkova. Yuan Yue said after the match: "The opponent's serve was better, and he played more aggressively in the final stage. My overall performance was quite normal, and the opponents had a lot of ups and downs. After all, where the opponent's ranking is, I may not be able to win if I encounter it in a normal tour event. ”
