The 2024 US Open kicked off, and the first Chinese player was eliminated! After nearly 2 hours of fierce battle, Yuan Yue lost 0-2 to Andreyeva and was eliminated in the first round, losing to the Russian star for the first time. After winning the first set, Wang Yafan received a gift from No. 9 seed Sakkari to retire and advance to the second round. Zheng Qinwen tied with Anisimova in the first two sets, and in the decisive set, she broke the serve in two games and led 3-0. She may win the reverse battle and aim for a good start.

Yuan Yue is a Chinese 90s golden flower. She made her first tour final last year and won the Seoul 250 tournament, but lost to Pegula 0-2. This season, Yuan Yue won the Austin 250 tournament, breaking her tour championship drought and making history. Then she made it to the quarterfinals of the IW tournament for the first time. In this US Open, Yuan Yue will face Andreeva in the first round. It is worth looking forward to whether she can defeat her opponent again after the Selva-Gardner tournament three years ago.

In the first set, Andreeva was well prepared and won five games in a row, 5-0. Yuan Yue started to work too late and failed to reverse the trend after winning three games in a row, losing 3-6. In the second set, the Chinese golden flower fought hard, fell behind 1-3 and dragged the game into a tiebreak, but failed to turn the 2-0 advantage into a victory, and lost 7-9 in the final, becoming the first Chinese golden flower to be eliminated.

Wang Yafan won the first set 6-2 against No. 9 seed Sakkari. At this time, the Greek No. 1 player could not continue the game and decided to withdraw. The Chinese golden flower accepted the gift and advanced to the second round. Zheng Qinwen once again showed her reversal queen nature. She lost 4-6 in the first set, but stopped her opponent with a powerful serve in the second set and returned 6-4 to tie the score. Zheng Qinwen won three games in a row in the deciding set and the situation was very good. She is infinitely close to the top 64. Come on!
