Chinese Golden Flower Peng Shuai Wins Season's Fir...
On July 30th, Beijing time, it was reported that the WTA International Tour Jiangxi Open had ended the women's singles final. After overcoming the slow heat, Chinese Jinhua Peng Shuai swept Japanese player Nihono Sugiu 6-2 to win the first championship of the season and the second championship in her career since last year's Tianjin match. At the same time, this is her second time reaching the top in Nanchang (2014WTA125K), and next week her world ranking will rise to 23rd.
Peng Shuai and Nippo Nokai have never played before. Both of them swept their opponents with eggs in the semi-finals, demonstrating a remarkable touch. This is the second time the two have reached the final of the tour this year. Prior to this, Peng Shuai won the runner up in Taipei and Nippo Nokai won the runner up in Malaysia. In terms of strength and experience, Peng Shuai has an advantage, and with his home position, he has a greater chance of winning. The match was postponed for over an hour due to rain today.
In the first set of the game, Peng Shuai made consecutive mistakes and suffered a break even after receiving the set point. In the second set, he was mainly stable compared to Ye Caixu. On the contrary, Peng Shuai still made consecutive mistakes while searching for the feel, losing 4 points in a row and falling behind 0-2. In the third inning, Peng Shuai still held high the banner of attack and gradually improved his service state to easily achieve a safe serve. Later, she adjusted her tactics in the receiving serve, not blindly attacking, and more used topspin to make it difficult for Nippon Noishi to rely on. In the end, she relied on chasing and hitting repeatedly to cash in on the break point and achieve a comeback break. In the next love game, Peng Shuai overcame the score with a 3-2 counterattack.
Under pressure, Yoshino Nozaki suffered from severe inaccuracy, making consecutive mistakes, failing to compete with Peng Shuai in the attack, and failing to defend. After losing two games in a row, he fell behind 2-5. At this point, the Japanese called for their coach to enter the field. In the 8th inning, the two of them engaged in a fierce battle, and Peng Shuai missed three counting opportunities. In the end, Nippon Nokai kept his serve and chased back to 3-5. However, Peng Shuai successfully defended the serve winning set and won the first set 6-3. She also excitedly shouted to her team to release pressure.
