Latest News about Qinwen Zheng
Zheng Qinwen made her 2026 season debut at the Qatar TotalEnergies Open in Doha, defeating Sofia Kenin 4-6, 6-1, 6-2 after cutting her 2025 season short in September due to injury. In the match, she fired 20 aces, signaling a strong return following her withdrawal from the Australian Open and injury-marked 2025 season.
After an injury-marked 2025 season, Zheng Qinwen did not register for any pre-Australian Open tournaments for the 2026 season, remaining the sole top-30 player to skip these events. She also refrained from participating in tournaments during the first two weeks of the upcoming season to focus on recovery.
Zheng Qinwen was ousted in the first round of Wimbledon 2025, losing to Katerina Siniakova in a surprising result where the No. 81 ranked player defeated the No. 8 Zheng. This made Zheng the seventh seeded female player to exit in the opening round of the tournament, following Jessica Pegula's earlier departure.
