(3) Summarizing experience and lessons:
From the point of view of technical play, Zheng Qinwen's service advantage was not reflected: 7 aces, but 8 double faults, the first win rate was 4% less than the opponent, and the second win rate was 9% less than the opponent, especially when the winning score was not much different from the opponent, but there were 10 more unforced errors than the opponent, which was the most fatal.
From a psychological point of view, Zheng Qinwen is still obviously unprepared for the opponent and the difficulty of the game. Before the game, he said that he didn't care who the opponent was, and that he could despise the opponent strategically, but tactically he should still be well prepared. In the game, it can be seen that Zheng Qinwen's mentality is still a little afraid of winning and losing, he is too quiet in the game, and lacks the means to adjust his nervousness and motivate his fighting spirit. You can learn from the practices of other players: for example, Li Na scolds her husband when the game is not going well, Zheng Jie keeps shouting "come on" to herself, Putintseva is broken, and Zheng Qinwen can also soothe his anxiety like when he was in China. When you play well, you should dance, celebrate and encourage yourself loudly, just like Putintseva did.
In addition, after winning the Australian Open runner-up, Zheng Qinwen may have some deviations in his own strength positioning. The Australian Open did not meet a top-50 player in the process, and there was an element of luck in finishing runner-up. This may have made her overestimate her own strength. In the game, he is obviously a little conservative in the face of low-ranked players, unwilling to show his best form to face his opponents, and wants to save his best form for stronger opponents in the future. As everyone knows, you don't have room to preserve your strength.
Fortunately, compared to other sports that come once in four years, tennis is still a sport full of endless possibilities and can be reviled at any time, and we don't need to be overly frustrated by a loss, because you will soon have a chance to regroup and make a comeback next month or even next week.
Finally, Li Na's message to Zheng Qinwen is quoted: Chinese tennis is not as profound as Europe and the United States, and there is a gap in the cognition of tennis from the beginning of the enlightenment training. I believe that Zheng Qinwen will sum up his experience through failure, continue to improve, and continue to move towards the goal of the Grand Slam.
