In the first round of the 2024 US Open women's singles match that ended in the early morning of August 27th, Beijing time, the No. 7 seed Zheng Qinwen defeated the local wildcard player Anisimova 4-6, 6-4, 6-2. She will face Russian teenager Erica Andreeva in the next round.

Zheng Qinwen, who just won the women's singles championship at the Paris Olympics, appeared at the US Open as the No. 7 seed. Her luck was bad. No. 2 seed Sabalenka, No. 3 seed Gauff, and No. 1 seed Swiatek were all her potential opponents. She faced a challenge in the first round. The local young opponent not only defeated the powerful Sabalenka in the just-concluded WTA1000 Toronto Station, but also won all the way, including defeating the experienced Navarro, and finally advanced to the women's singles final. She is in good form recently.

In the first set, Anisimova quickly established a 5-1 lead with excellent serve returns, putting great pressure on Zheng Qinwen. Although Zheng Qinwen later chased the score to 4-5, she failed to hold her serve in the crucial tenth game and eventually lost 4-6.

Entering the second set, Zheng Qinwen showed a completely different competitive state. The quality of her first serve improved significantly, with a first serve winning rate of 94%, leaving no break opportunities for her opponent. In the fifth game, Zheng Qinwen seized the opportunity, successfully broke the serve, and won the first set 6-4. In the deciding set, Anisimova's state fluctuated significantly, while Zheng Qinwen continued the hot hand of the second set. With more stable performance and excellent tactical execution, she easily locked the victory with 6-2 and reversed the victory.
