WTA1000 the women's singles final of the Dubai Championships, the 17-year-old Andreeva defeated Towson in straight sets to win her first 1000 championship!

Such a result is indeed something that many fans did not expect before the start of the Dubai race. I have to say that this year's women's tennis start is indeed full of surprises and surprises! The first three tournaments have all been won by players who are not ranked at the top of the rankings, which shows the openness of women's tennis today.

Speaking of Andreeva, many Chinese fans are definitely no strangers to her! In the women's singles quarterfinals of last year's China Open, Zheng Qinwen's opponent was Andreeva, and in that game, Andreeva was reversed by the Chinese sister 6-0 6-4 in the first set 7-5, and she also broke down and cried after the game. However, Zheng Qinwen also made bold statements after the game, admitting that he was not satisfied with his performance, and he only played at a level of 30% in this game. And now, the 17-year-old not only surpassed Zheng Qinwen to take the lead in winning the 1000 tournament, but also reached the top nine in the world rankings, and is only 60 points away from Zheng Qinwen, who is ranked eighth!

For Zheng Qinwen, after a successful year last year, at the beginning of this year, most people thought that she, along with Sabalenka, Swiatek, Gauff and Rybakina, would dominate this year's women's tennis, but the three tournaments of the new season have proven that the WTA has begun its own era of chaos.

As we all know, Zheng Qinwen's goal is to win the Grand Slam women's singles title and become the world's No. 1, but from the current point of view, the situation facing the first sister of China is complex and severe. On the one hand, Zheng Qinwen's own form has declined severely, which puts her at a greater disadvantage in the competition with those old opponents who are already afraid of her, such as Sabalenka and others; On the other hand, Zheng Qinwen's former defeated generals such as Jabbar and Andreeva have counterattacked and achieved good results, which also caused Zheng Qinwen to suffer from the enemy on her back, making it more difficult for her to gain confidence in a short period of time! To add insult to injury, Zheng Qinwen's current elbow recovery time is still unknown, but judging from the current competitive situation, there is no time left for her.

After the Dubai race, Andreeva's world ranking came to ninth in the world, only 60 points away from Zheng Qinwen, and Andreeva's Navarro and Badosa behind him, the score difference between several people is also very small, which also means that the top ten will change more at any time in the rest of the season.

However, Zheng's top-10 defense may not wait until after the Indian Wells tennis tournament begins, as world No. 10 Navarro and world No. 11 Badosa have already confirmed their appearances in the Merida 500. It is worth mentioning that Navarro and Bardosa, as the top two seeds in the tournament, will enjoy first-round byes, which means that they have a better chance of going further in the tournament and possibly even winning the title. If Navarro or Badosa perform well in Mérida or even win the championship, their points will be greatly improved, and they may directly surpass Zheng Qinwen.

The good news is that just yesterday, Zheng Qinwen also posted a picture of her training on her social media, and after the defeat in Dubai, she and her team also returned to Spain to continue to prepare for the next two tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami. Judging from the video, Zheng Qinwen's meritorious coach - Pere Riba is suspected to have returned. This also shows her ambition for the next two tournaments. For Zheng Qinwen, these two tournaments are absolutely impossible to lose, and if she still can't go further, she may be squeezed out of the top 10 in the world!

In this regard, some netizens said, "Andreeva was able to defeat Swiatek and Rybakina, the stability of her playing style can be seen, and she will be a stable female presence among first-line players in the future, Zheng Qinwen should indeed feel the pressure." From the current point of view, Sister Jinhua's more problems still come from herself, mainly because off-the-field affairs have taken too much energy, which also makes her unable to do anything on the field. However, Zheng Qinwen already has a solid foundation, and she can look forward to a higher future. Anyway, let's start by congratulating the new TOP10 and the new 1000 winners! Some netizens said, "It's hard to believe what kind of heights she will reach in the future!" She is really, really worth looking forward to! However, the biggest opponent of professional tennis is always yourself, and only with a stronger heart and more determined mental strength can you go farther and farther! ”(Source: Tennis Home Author: Lu Xiaotian)
