The world number one fought through a strange, irregular, error-filled match against Qinwen Zheng in which both players showed little effectiveness, yet the Belarusian managed to prevail in the key moments.
Qinwen Zheng
Chinese tennis player, Olympic champion in Paris, makes a good start at the Miami Open and talks about the difficulty of finding motivation in a year that was very intense for her.
We've had to wait a few weeks, but now it seems like the best version of Qinwen Zheng is back on the circuit. Or at least one that comes pretty close. For the first time this season, we have the Chinese player claiming three consecutive victories thanks to her latest win in two sets against Marta Kostyuk (6-3, 6-2). A match where she held control at all times to advance to the quarterfinals of the Indian Wells WTA 1000, where she will face the toughest opponent possible, none other than Iga Swiatek. That's where we'll find out if this improvement is enough to compete with the top favorite or if she still needs a bit more time to gain confidence in big moments.

It hadn't been a good start to the season for Qinwen Zheng, with just one victory in her first three tournaments. What was behind this poor start? There is never a single factor that explains it, but one factor can turn the situation around. After undergoing surgery and the corresponding rehabilitation, Pere Riba has finally returned to the sidelines at this WTA 1000 Indian Wells, providing a shot of adrenaline for the Chinese player. Tonight, after defeating Lulu Sun (6-4, 7-5) and advancing to the round of 16, Qinwen secured two consecutive victories for the first time this season. Next up is Kostyuk.

A good debut for Mirra Andreeva who arrives at Indian Wells 2025 with some pressure. The 17-year-old Russian, ranked 11th in the world, secured her first win in California against Varvara Gracheva with a scoreline of 7-5, 6-4 in 1 hour and 45 minutes in a match where she started well but lost momentum at a critical moment.

The WTA Doha 2025 has turned into a massacre for the top seeds. The early tournament days have been filled with surprises, including Aryna Sabalenka's early defeat, which could push her out of the world number one ranking if Iga Swiatek keeps advancing. The quarterfinals leave us with a scenario where seven of the top ten players in the world have already packed their bags: only Iga Swiatek, Elena Rybakina (who will face each other in the quarterfinals), and Jessica Pegula remain. Will the 'curse' claim their lives before the final?
A tricky WTA 1000 for the Top 10... 😳

Season 2025 of many changes for Qinwen Zheng, although all of them sporadic. After trying her luck with Dante Bottini at the Australian Open and not succeeding, the Chinese player will have by her side this month of February a true legend like Albert Costa, with whom she already shared some training days at the Barcelona Tennis Club. And what about Pere Riba? He continues with rehabilitation after undergoing hip surgery at the beginning of the year, with the goal of a possible return to coaching in the next month of March. We will see how Qinwen performs with Costa in the upcoming tournaments in Doha and Dubai.
