In the just-concluded women's tennis singles final of the Paris Olympics, Zheng Qinwen defeated the dark horse player Vekic with an overwhelming score of 2:0 and successfully won the gold medal. This brilliant victory is not only the highlight of Zheng Qinwen's career, but also China's first major breakthrough in the women's singles field of tennis at the Olympic Games.
Zheng Qinwen is ranked 7th in the world tennis rankings, while her opponent is Vekic who is outside the 20th in the world rankings. From the perspective of ranking alone, Zheng Qinwen's strength advantage is quite obvious. This victory undoubtedly once again strongly proves Zheng Qinwen's strength and huge development potential that should not be underestimated. Even if Zheng Qinwen's performance this time is so good that it has sparked heated discussions, the topic of whether she can surpass Li Na to become the first person in Chinese tennis needs to be viewed calmly and objectively.
As things stand, I don't think Zheng Qinwen is far from being compared to Li Na. While Zheng Qinwen is undoubtedly one of the best Chinese women's tennis players at the moment, she has yet to win a Grand Slam title, which is a significant gap to Li Na.
To fairly and equitably compare the influence and achievements of Zheng Qinwen and Li Na, the key factor is the Grand Slam title. Only when Zheng Qinwen successfully lifted the Grand Slam championship trophy will we have enough basis and confidence to make a comprehensive and in-depth comparison. Although the Olympics are a major event in the global sports world, held every four years, they attract a lot of attention. But in the world of tennis, the Olympic championship is not given enough attention compared to other top competitions. Just because Zheng Qinwen made a breakthrough for the Chinese team at the Olympics, we can't blindly assume that her status in the entire tennis world is comparable to Li Na.
Of course, for the young and full of potential, Zheng Qinwen still has a long way to go, and she still has ample opportunities to create more brilliant achievements, to catch up with or even surpass Li Na's achievements. Although Zheng Qinwen cannot surpass Li Na in some aspects at this stage, it is undeniable that she has become the first female representative of Chinese sports in terms of international influence. Especially at the moment when Zhu Ting's state is declining, Zheng Qinwen's influence is steadily rising.
As it stands, we can temporarily award Zheng Qinwen with the title of the first person in the international influence of Chinese women's sports. After all, tennis is a sport that has a wide range of attention and influence around the world, and her achievements in this field have won her many international attention. In the field of domestic sports, Zheng Qinwen's popularity and attention cannot be compared with Quan Hongchan and Sun Yingsha. The main reason for this is that tennis is not as popular and popular as table tennis and diving in China.
If we compare the three events of table tennis, diving and tennis together, we will clearly find that there is indeed a large gap between the international influence and popularity of table tennis and diving compared with tennis. In fact, on the international stage, there may be situations where you know Zheng Qinwen but don't know Quan Hongchan and Sun Yingsha. But on the other hand, those who know Quan Hongchan and Sun Yingsha must know Zheng Qinwen. This phenomenon can also be reflected in the income of their respective competition prize money.
Earlier this year, Zheng Qinwen won the runner-up in the Australia Open, a result that brought her a whopping 8.8 million yuan. In contrast, Sun Yingsha won 13 international titles in singles and doubles in 2023, but her total prize money is less than one-eighth of Zheng's. This huge prize gap intuitively reflects the significant difference between table tennis and tennis in terms of commercial value and market attention. Table tennis has a relatively low level of prize money due to its relatively low international attention.
From the perspective of international influence, after winning the Olympic championship, Zheng Qinwen has indeed surpassed Quan Hongchan and Sun Yingsha to become the representative figure of Chinese women's sports in the world. But in China, due to factors such as the popularity and popularity of the project, Zheng Qinwen's popularity cannot be compared with Quan Hongchan and Sun Yingsha for the time being.
However, with the continuous development of China's sports industry and the continuous advancement of the internationalization process, the future development prospects of various sports are indeed full of infinite possibilities. Chinese sports are integrating into the world sports family with a positive and open attitude, and exchanges and cooperation with international sports are getting closer and closer.
We look forward to Zheng Qinwen continuing to forge ahead in the international arena and continue to create more dazzling achievements. It is hoped that she will continue to improve her skills, further refine her tactical strategy, and always maintain her strong belief and tenacious fighting spirit in the face of strong opponents from all over the world. Every competition is a challenge and an opportunity for growth, and I believe that she can write more glorious chapters for Chinese athletes in the field of tennis with her hard work and talent.
At the same time, we also sincerely hope that traditional advantageous sports such as table tennis and diving can make greater breakthroughs in international promotion. These projects carry the glorious history and profound heritage of Chinese sports, and have unique charm and exquisite skills. We hope that through more active and effective promotion methods, more international friends will understand and love these sports, and let the world see the diversity and excitement of Chinese sports.
We are eager to see more Chinese athletes shine on the world stage. Whether it is in a popular sport or a relatively niche field, every athlete's hard work and dedication deserve our respect and praise. They represent the spirit of Chinese sports and convey the positive energy of tenacity, unity and enterprising. Let us work together to contribute to the prosperity and development of China's sports industry.
Government departments can increase investment and support for sports, improve the construction of sports infrastructure, and formulate policies that are more conducive to sports development; All sectors of society can actively participate in sports activities to create a strong sports atmosphere; The broad masses of the people should establish a correct concept of sports, love sports, and participate in sports.
I believe that with our joint promotion, China's sports industry will usher in a more brilliant tomorrow. All projects will go hand in hand and develop together, laying a solid foundation for achieving the goal of becoming a sports power, so that Chinese sports will shine more brilliantly on the world stage.
