US Open: Zheng in 5-0 comeback; Gauff, Rybakina, Zverev also in quarters
Zheng Qinwen beats Iga Swiatek; Coco Gauff, Elena Rybakina also reach quarterfinals. Alexander Zverev through in men's.
Zheng Qinwen, a Chinese tennis player, has made a triumphant return to the US Open quarterfinals after a challenging period. The 23-year-old, who was once ranked as high as No. 4, had to qualify for the tournament, a process she acknowledged was mentally difficult due to her lack of recent success. She defeated No. 22 Madison Keys and No. 8 Iga Swiatek, both in comebacks from 5-0 deficits, to reach the quarterfinals. Zheng will face No. 2 seed Elena Rybakina, who will climb to No. 1 in the WTA rankings with a win.
