Zheng Qinwen rewards raucous Chinese support to grab gold in tense tennis final
From: The Guardian & AP NEWS
Zheng Qinwen became the first Chinese player to win an Olympic tennis singles gold medal when she held off Croatia's Donna Vekic for a 6-2, 6-3 win in a tense final on Saturday.
“Nothing can describe my feelings right now,” Zheng told Eurosport on court before the medals ceremony. “It's unreal, I was hoping to get a medal for China and I made it, I got the gold. I did everything I could.”
“I always wanted to be one of the athletes who can get a medal for China, for our country, and right now I'm one of them,” Zheng said after eliminating No. 1 Iga Swiatek of Poland in the semifinals on Thursday. “But I know the fight is not over; it's not the end.”
That stopped Swiatek's 25-match winning streak at Roland Garros, which hosts the annual French Open and is the site of the clay courts being used for tennis during these Summer Games. Four of Swiatek's five major championships came at the French Open.
Vekic also has gotten past past major title winners along the way to guaranteeing herself a medal. She beat 2019 U.S. Open champion Bianca Andreescu of Canada in the second round and reigning U.S. Open champ Coco Gauff of the United States in the third round.
“It's been my goal since I started playing tennis. It's been my biggest goal for this year,” Vekic said about Olympic success after her semifinal win against Anna Karolina Schmiedlova of Slovakia. “And to have a medal — I have truly no words.”
