Zheng vs Wang Head-to-Head
Qinwen Zheng and Xiyu Wang have played at WTA level, with Zheng defeating her compatriot at the WTA 125K final in Valencia last season. That match went the full distance and was on clay.
Zheng vs Wang Prediction
Qinwen Zheng has picked up successive wins for the first time since Miami. Victory over Anna Bonar at the Italian Open also signifies that the 20-year-old is almost assured of breaking the world’s top 20 for the first time, with Zheng currently 18th in the live rankings. She’ll look to reach her first quarterfinal on clay since Valencia 125K – the same tournament she crossed paths with compatriot Xiyu Wang whom she beat to win the title last season. So Wang will look to even the scores here. Wang is a year older, but her progress her been a tad slower than Zheng’s. But there can be no doubt that these two players are the leading lights of the newest generation of Chinese female tennis players. Wang is not lacking in experience despite sitting over 50 spots below Zheng in the rankings, having beaten the WTA’s top stars multiple times before. So we’re backing three sets between these two once more, with Zheng holding the edge.
