Focus on tennis events and pay attention to the big dramas of the Chinese Open.
On the first day of the 11th National Day, a number of competitions took turns to be "on duty".
The WTT Beijing Grand Slam and the 2024 China Open will both stage heavyweight matches that fans are looking forward to.
What's more worth mentioning is that in the China Open competition, both men's and women's singles competitions have Chinese players competing, which is a rare one.
Below, let's take a look at the schedule of the China Open drama.
Match 1: Zhang Shuai vs Freich (12:30)
As a Tour 1000 event, the level of the Chinese Open is top-notch.
In this year's China Open, the 35-year-old veteran Zhang Shuai was rejuvenated, won three consecutive victories after a long absence, and advanced to the top 16 in Fudi.
In the fourth round of the quarterfinals, Zhang Shuai's opponent was Poland's Fresch, who has improved significantly this season.
The opponent has already won a trophy this season and is also the No. 23 seed.
In the previous two meetings, the two sides won one and drew evenly. However, Zhang Shuai's victory dates back to the distant 2018 season, when he was still ranked among the top 100 players in the challenge arena, which did not have reference value.
In terms of strength, Fréch undoubtedly has the upper hand, but Zhang Shuai is sitting at home, and his morale is currently good, not without upset strength, and the Chinese veteran will also hit the top 8 of his third China Open.
At 12:30 p.m. on the first day of the eleventh victory, the conversation between the two was waved as scheduled, and CCTV5 channel was live to witness, let us look forward to it.
Match 2: Buyun Chaoket PK Sinner (19:00)
If in the women's singles field, Zhang Shuai and Zheng Qinwen joined forces to build a new hope for Chinese women's tennis, then the men's singles Buyun Chaoket has also become the "hope of the whole village".
Before the game, I am afraid that most fans could not have imagined that the top 100 player Byun Chaokert could reach the semi-finals, not only eliminating Rublev, but also joining the top four camps of the No. 1, 2 and 3 seeds.
Now, Buyun Chaoket has been given a new nickname by Chinese fans: "Bu Jingyun"!
was shocked by the fan champion, in addition to the slight similarity of the names of the two, Buyun Chaoket's power is also quite explosive.
In the semi-finals, Buyunchaokert faced the current world number one, Italy superstar Sinner.
In the Chinese season, Buyun Chaokert has won consecutive victories over TOp30, TOP20 and TOP10 masters.
In the semifinals, Buyun Chaoket will challenge NO.1 for the first time and present a National Day gift package for Chinese fans.
Sinner is currently very strong, winning a wave of singles for 14 consecutive wins, but when he comes to the China Open, the world No. 1 has fought hard in three sets in a row, and it is unknown whether he can continue to maintain his physical fitness.
In addition, the world's No. 1 is plagued by doping and has a chance to create miracles.
At 19 o'clock in the prime time of Beijing time, CCTV5 will also witness the "world's first" battle against the "world's first".
Let's cheer for the players together!
