Tomorrow (July 1), the first day of the main draw of the Wimbledon 2024 tennis tournament will be rekindled.
The 11-member "Chinese Army" played in singles, and 9 of them appeared on the first day alone, and there were Chinese players from 18 o'clock in the evening to the early morning of the next day. Shang Juncheng and Zhu Lin fought to win the "good start of the legion".
After watching the schedule, I can only sigh: it's another lively day, and it's another day that can't be watched at all!
"Chinese Legion" 2024 Wimbledon first day schedule:
- 18:00(NO.104) vs No.111
- 18:00|Eds (NO.60) vs. No.127 (NO.127)
- 19:30|张之臻(NO.33) vs 让维耶(NO.225)
- 20:00|17 (NO.677) vs. 11 AM (NO.14)
- 21:30|郑钦文(NO.8) vs 孙璐璐(NO.123)
- 21:30(NO.72) vs No.72 (NO.77)
- 22:00(NO.51) vs No.51 (NO.49)
- 22:00|Eds (NO.38) vs. No.55
- (NO.477) vs No.477 (NO.19)
It's lively, but after the first day, how many of the 9 people can stay? Can you pass half of the levels? After the excitement, will the flowers bloom, or will they fall in one place? I believe that everyone has their own answer in their hearts. Before the game, you might as well take a look at the odds, after all, you can scoff at big data things, but there is still some reference value.
"Chinese Legion" 2024 Wimbledon first day odds:
- Zheng Qinwen vs Sun Lulu|Odds: 1.17-5.00
- Zhang Zhizhen vs Jean Weiye|Odds: 1.12-6.00
- Shang Juncheng vs Garin|Odds: 1.80-2.00
- Yuan Yue vs Ruth|Odds: 1.50-2.65
- Wang Yafan vs Schmiedlova|Odds: 1.80-2.00
- Zhu Lin vs Begu|Odds: 2.20-1.67
- Zhang Shuai vs Kasatkina|Odds: 11.00-1.05
- Wang Xiyu vs Vekic | odds: 3.40-1.33
- Odds of 10.00-1.06
In terms of odds, Zheng Qinwen, Zhang Zhizhen, Yuan Yue, Wang Yafan and Shang Juncheng are all optimistic. Zhang Zhizhen's chances of passing the test are even higher than Zheng Qinwen's, Yuan Yue is also the one with the bigger chance of winning, and Shang Juncheng and Wang Yafan's match is the type where anything is possible.
Among the players who were sung, Zhang Shuai and Wang Qiang, who were shortlisted by ranking protection, the odds are not very good, and they even lose respect. But, that's how the game is, strength speaks. It is strange that one has lost 20 consecutive games and the other has a low level of ITF water in China after his comeback.
Next, let's take a brief look at the first round of matches of Chinese players on paper:
【8】郑钦文 vs 孙璐璐【Q】
- World ranking: 8 - 123
- Head-to-head record: None
Zheng Qinwen's first-round opponent Sun Lulu is a Chinese player, and this year's Billy Jean King Cup, Wang Xiyu won 8 games in a row 6-4, 6-0 to defeat his childhood friend. Sun Lulu has a record of 8 wins and 2 losses against Chinese players, but all of them have won against second- and third-tier players, and there is no even record against the top 100 players on the tour.
The game hasn't started yet, but Zheng Qinwen broke the golden sentence again. In an interview with the media on the same day, when asked if he paid attention to his draw, Zheng Qinwen hit a straight ball: "I don't pay attention at all, I don't care who I play with, even if I play against the Grand Slam champion in the first round." As long as the strength is strong enough, anyone can win."
This self-confidence is very good, and it is still the familiar Zheng Qinwen. In this Wimbledon, Zheng Qinwen's top 8 against the big seed is Sabalenka. Sabalenka admits she suffered a rare shoulder injury and had to reduce the power of her serve. At Wimbledon this year, she could retire at any time.
Zhang Zhizhen vs Jean Will【Q】
- World ranking: 33 - 225
- Head-to-head record: None
If he can play at the top 4 level in Halle, Zhang Zhizhen should not be able to win the first victory in the Wimbledon main draw. After all, Jean Ville is only at the level of a challenge tournament and is also making his first appearance in the Wimbledon main draw. Being able to break through from the qualifying rounds has made Vir complete the task.
Interestingly, Zhang Zhizhen is only 2 days older than his opponent. Talking about the opponent in the first round, Zhang Zhizhen said: His serve is good, the bottom line feels quite flat as a whole, quite aggressive, and there may be some deficiencies in stability, after all, he can pass three rounds of qualifiers, and he will not be bad, although the ranking is not high, but it has a certain threat.
Shang Juncheng vs Garin【Q】
- World ranking: 104 - 111
- Head-to-head record: None
Although the opponent is only a qualifier, he is the top 8 players of the tournament in 2022. Of course, the type of court he prefers is clay, and this week at ATP 250 Eastbourne, Xiao Shang reached the quarter-finals of his first career grass-court tournament, and his agile and versatile style of play is more similar to Garin's.
The brave wins! The odds are optimistic about small businesses, which is good news.
Yuan Yue vs Ruth
- World ranking: 38 - 55
- Head-to-head record: None
The two have never played each other before, with Ruth having a 14-7 record against Chinese players, beating Wang Xiyu X2, Wang Xiyu, Zhu Lin and Zhang Shuai respectively, but that was at least two years ago. The three stops of the grass warm-up cyrus are all "one round tour", and Yuan Yue has a chance.
Wang Xiyu vs Vekic
- World ranking: 51 - 49
- Head to head: 1-0
Two years ago, at the WTA 250 Washington Station, Wang Xiyu defeated his opponent 2-1. Of course, Wang Xiyu's game is to open a blind box, and the victory or defeat depends on whether he is stupid.
Vekic just finished runner-up at the WTA 500 Bad Humboldt this week, and he felt just right. The odds are declining Wang Zuo, do you dare to slap your face with strength?
Zhu Lin vs Begu
- World ranking: 51 - 49
- Head-to-head record: 0-1
In the first round of the French Open 5 years ago, Zhu Lin was swept by her opponent 1-6 in the first round. This season, Zhu Lin was in mediocre form and was not selected for the Chinese team's Olympic squad. There was also only one win in the grass warm-up match, and it was also followed by a wave of six consecutive singles defeats.
It still makes sense that the odds are bad for screenwriters.
Wang Yafan vs Schmiedlova
- World ranking: 72 - 77
- Head-to-head record: 3-1
Playing Schmidlova, Wang Yafan still has experience, and it is also a wave of three consecutive wins. This year, the second round in Hua Hin was also 2-0.
Zhang Shuai vs Kasatkina【14】
- World ranking: 677 - 14
- Head-to-head record: None
Having just won the WTA 500 Eastbourne title, Kasatkina is in good form. can only say, Zhang Shuai, it's good to be happy, 21 consecutive defeats are already on the way.
Wang Qiang vs Navarro【19】
- World ranking: 477 - 19
- Head-to-head record: None
Navarro's form this year is very fierce, Wang Qiang has not long returned, and it is still at the level of the ITF.
So, 9 people played on the first day of Wimbledon this year, how many do you think we can score 9?
Xiaoxing squatted one: Zheng Qinwen, Zhang Zhizhen, Shang Juncheng, Yuan Yue, Wang Xiyu.
