Zheng Qinwen has demonstrated a strong return to competitive tennis following an absence due to injury and subsequent elbow surgery. At the Qatar Open, Zheng overcame a first-set loss to defeat Sofia Kenin, recording 20 aces despite experiencing lingering elbow discomfort. Her momentum continued at the US Open, where she entered through the qualifying rounds and secured a significant third-round victory against 22nd seed Madison Keys. In that match, Zheng staged a dramatic comeback after losing the first set 1-6 and trailing 0-5 in the third set. She saved a match point and won seven consecutive games to complete the 1-6, 7-6, 7-5 victory. This win marks a significant resurgence for Zheng as she continues her return to form. ~~Following~~ With this victory, Zheng became the first qualifier to reach the women’s fourth round at the US Open since Emma Raducanu in 2021. Following this historic advancement, she was scheduled to face Iga Swiatek in the next round.
