Player profile
Zheng Qinwen won Olympic gold during a landmark 2024 season
Zheng Qinwen reached her first Grand Slam final at the 2024 Australian Open, won Olympic singles gold in Paris and finished runner-up at both Wuhan and the WTA Finals. She also defended her Palermo title, won Tokyo and climbed to a career-high No. 4 in 2025. The Chinese player's progress slowed when a right elbow problem required surgery in July 2025 and limited the rest of that season. Zheng returned in Doha in 2026 and struck 20 aces in a three-set win over Sofia Kenin. Her career combines elite serving and forehand power with an injury comeback that has temporarily placed a proven major contender outside direct-entry range.

US Open story
Zheng Qinwen moves into the second round of 2026 US Open qualifying
Zheng owns a 10-3 US Open main-draw record. She reached the third round on debut in 2022, then made consecutive quarterfinals in 2023 and 2024. Her first last-eight run included a 6-2, 6-4 victory over 2022 finalist Ons Jabeur; Aryna Sabalenka ended both quarterfinal campaigns. After injury and a ranking drop, Zheng returned through qualifying in 2026 and defeated You Xiaodi 6-3, 6-2 in an all-Chinese opener. She next faces Clara Burel in round two. A win would move Zheng to the qualifying final, still one victory from returning to the 128-player main field.
What to watch
Zheng Qinwen versus Clara Burel puts first-strike control at the center
Zheng led the WTA Tour with 406 aces in 2024 and produced 20 in her first match of 2026, so her serve remains the obvious starting point. Against Burel, power alone is not enough if second serves or rushed forehands allow the French player to extend rallies. Zheng's straight-set win over You showed an efficient first step, but qualifying requires the same clarity on consecutive days and offers no protection for past results. Fans should watch whether the serve creates a forehand inside the baseline. That pattern powered an Olympic title and two US Open quarterfinals; its consistency now indicates how far her post-surgery match rhythm has returned.
