  "account": "Zheng Qinwen stunned Iga Swiatek by winning a set from 5-0 down for the second time in a row, advancing to the US Open quarter-finals. The 23-year-old Chinese player, who fell outside the top 100 earlier this year after elbow surgery, overcame a 5-0 deficit in the final set to defeat Swiatek, the former champion. Zheng, who has won seven straight matches at the US Open, will face second seed Elena Rybakina in the next round. This victory marks Zheng's seventh consecutive win in New York, putting her back near the top 50 rankings. Former world number five Daniela Hantuchova praised Zheng's growing threat to other players. Swiatek, speaking after her quarter-final loss, attributed her mistakes to missing easy shots, rather than a lack of mental strength. Meanwhile, Mirra Andreeva reached the last eight for the first time in her career after recovering from a first-set loss to Anastasia Potapova.",
