in the early morning of august 29th, beijing time, in the second round of the 2024 us open women's singles, zheng qinwen defeated erica andreeva 2-1 in total, and entered the third round (32-strong stage) for three consecutive years, and received a bonus of 215,000 us dollars (about 1.54 million rmb). next, zheng qinwen's opponent in the third round is german player niemeyer, who defeated uchijima moeka 6-4, 6-0 in straight sets.

after zheng qinwen reversed erica andreeva, four incredible things happened, and there are two indisputable facts.

four incredible things:

1. after winning the championship at the paris olympics, zheng qinwen has become more and more adept at playing against the wind. he completed four reversals in the olympics and now has made consecutive reversals in the first two rounds of the us open. his physical fitness, mentality, and technology are all undergoing transformation, which is incredible.

2. when watching zheng qinwen’s games now, i won’t worry if she loses the first set, because i believe she can make a comeback in the following games. no wonder she is called the “queen of reversal” by domestic fans. this title is very suitable for zheng qinwen now.

3. in this game, zheng qinwen continued to show his excellent serving skills, hitting a total of 20 aces, 8 more than in the first round. among them, the number of aces served in the second and third sets accounted for 80%, which was one of the main reasons for the reversal of erica andreeva in this game.

4. this is zheng qinwen’s third season competing in the grand slam. now that he has advanced, he has been able to reach the third round of the us open for three consecutive years, making him the first chinese player to do so at this stage.

two indisputable facts:

1. zheng qinwen has at least made it to the third round in all three times she participated in the us open, the third round in 2022 and the quarterfinals in 2023. now she has a chance to make a breakthrough in 2024, which also reflects her stable performance in the us open, a grand slam event.

2. after advancing to the third round, zheng qinwen's prize money increased significantly again, reaching 215,000 us dollars (about 1.54 million rmb). if he advances to the fourth round, the prize money will be 325,000 us dollars (about 2.32 million rmb). it can be said that the us open prize money is indeed outrageously high.

according to the draw, zheng qinwen's next opponent is niemeyer, who eliminated uchijima moeka in straight sets 6-4, 6-0.

it is worth mentioning that the opponent zheng qinwen lost to in his first us open was niemeyer. at that time, zheng qinwen lost to his opponent 4-6, 6-7 and failed to advance to the top 16 of the us open. after 2 years, he had a great opportunity for revenge.
