The first round of the US Open singles kicked off, with Zheng Qinwen reversing Anisimova to get off to a good start. Another Chinese player, Wang Yafan, won the first set 6-2, and then her opponent, the ninth seed Sacca, retired due to injury, so she passed the round smoothly.

The 22-year-old Anisimova is ranked 49th in the world. She has a powerful style of play, and her serve, return and offensive abilities are very unique. She entered the US Open through a wild card. Her performance this year is quite good and her personal competitive state is excellent. Zheng Qinwen is the seventh seed in the women's singles. She defeated strong opponents in the Paris Olympics and won the championship, creating history for Chinese Olympic tennis singles. We look forward to her continued efforts.

At the beginning of the game, Anisimova served first. After a mistake in the second serve, she gradually found the rhythm and took the upper hand in consecutive rounds, taking the lead in the first game. Zheng Qinwen was a little slow to warm up. His consecutive returns were all into the net and lost points. In the second game, the success rate of first serve was still low. Fortunately, he slowly got the feel and successfully tied the score. However, he lost his performance again in the third game and lost 0-40, temporarily falling behind 1-2.

Anisimova's serve was very impactful, and her return was also very powerful and at an angle. She successfully broke the serve in the fourth game to expand her advantage. Zheng Qinwen encountered a big problem with her first serve, and the quality of her second serve was not ideal. She was restrained in the stalemate and played quite passively. She was once behind 1-5. Then she seemed to be in good shape, seized the opponent's mistakes and scored 40-0. She became more and more courageous and won three games in a row. Unfortunately, she still failed to achieve a reversal and lost the first set 2-6.

In the second set, Zheng Qinwen hit a series of beautiful aces, and her serve feel improved, but Anisimova was also in hot form, and the two took turns to hit 40-0, and the situation became more and more intense. Zheng Qinwen's first serve success rate improved significantly, but the opponent's physical consumption gradually decreased, and the score was tied at 6-4.

Zheng Qinwen broke Anisimova's serve in the deciding set. Anisimova was injured in the high-intensity confrontation and frequently showed flaws. She was about to win three games in a row and gradually take the initiative, but she started to fluctuate. She adjusted in time in the key sixth game and hit an ace again. In the end, she won 6-2. Zheng Qinwen reversed Anisimova 2-1 and advanced to the next round. Congratulations!
