Navarro entered the final ranking and surpassed Zheng Qinwen! On the intensity, the first sister of China invited Shang Juncheng to spar!

It's time to come or it's coming! Although yesterday's withdrawal from Bardosa allowed Zheng to temporarily retain his No. 8 spot in the world, Zheng Qinwen fell to No. 9 in the world rankings this morning thanks to Merida's top seed Navarro reaching the final.



The early exits in Doha and Dubai put Zheng's top 10 rankings in jeopardy. This week's Merida is the highest-profile event before the Sunshine Doubles, with Zheng Qinwen taking a break and Navarro and Badosa participating, which means that the Chinese sister has given up all the initiative in the rankings.


In the semi-finals of Merida, Navarro's opponent was Avaniexiang, known as the "Chinese Golden Flower Killer", the opponent was good at change and played very smart, but it was not easy to deal with. However, the two sides have met once before, when Navarro swept away in straight sets, so the pre-match odds are more favourable for the rich girl to advance to the final.



After the start of the match, Navarro was rather slow to heat up. In the first set, the top seed had consecutive break crises in the third and fifth games, but both were cleared. Wasting consecutive break opportunities and damaging his opponent Avanexiang, he gave the top seed three consecutive break points in the sixth game to save and finally break first. Navarro, who then took the lead, maintained his advantage until the end of the set, winning the first set comfortably 6-3.


In the second set, Navarro broke consecutive games to take a 2-0 lead, but the tenacious Avane broke back to tie the score. The top seed then made another comeback, breaking twice in the fifth and seventh games to extend her advantage to 5-2, and the tenacious Avane held on to the final game of the set, but Navarro held serve to win another set 6-3 to advance to the final 2-0 on aggregate.



With Navarro breaking into the final of the Merida, Zheng Qinwen scored 3,780 points in the instant standings, while Navarro overtook 3,834 points and reached the eighth place in the world in one fell swoop. If he wins the final, Navarro's points will increase further to 4,009 points, and the point advantage over Zheng Qinwen will also expand to more than 200 points. Considering that the opponent in the final is a qualifier, Navarro has a good chance of winning the title.


Let's pay attention to the news of China's first sister Zheng Qinwen. Yesterday, the first sister of China issued a document confirming that she and her team have arrived in Indian Wells, and today, Zheng Qinwen also began adaptive training, and in order to increase the intensity of training, the first sister of China also directly invited a male player to be a sparring partner, and this male player is not an outsider, it is our Chinese tennis player - Shang Juncheng.



Judging from the training video, Zheng Qinwen and Shang Juncheng are still quite intense in Indian Wells, and Shang Juncheng, who has not seen fans for a long time, is also very active in training, and the training atmosphere between the two is quite cheerful. In this regard, many melon-eating netizens have praised it, and even the official Indian Wells specially posted that "this is WTA vs ATP". Some netizens said, "Golden boy and jade girl, both of them are the hope of Chinese tennis!" Some netizens ridiculed, "Zheng Qinwen who fights with iron, and the three musketeers of the men's tennis who runs water!" However, some netizens pointed out, "I feel that I am in good condition, but the sleeve of my right arm has not been taken off, and the injury on my arm is still not completely good!" ”



Zheng Qinwen is now confirmed to be the No. 9 seed in the Indian Wells tennis tournament, and she was only 75 points on the balance last year. However, considering that Andreeva and Badosa, who are currently behind her, have no more than 100 points gap with Zheng Qinwen, Zheng Qinwen must perform very well to ensure that he does not fall out of the top 10 in the world.



It is worth mentioning that Zheng Qinwen will currently participate in the Desert Smash charity exhibition tournament held on March 3-4, and then participate in the Indian Wells tennis tournament.(Source: Tennis Home Author: Lu Xiaotian)
