China's Wang Ziying put on a masterclass at the US Open women's wheelchair event, tearing past Colombia's Angelica Bernal with a clinical 6-0, 6-2 win in just 49 minutes. The world number four fired 19 winners and committed only two unforced errors, underscoring her status as a force on the international circuit.
Next up is a high-stakes semi-final against Japan's world number one, Yui Kamiji, promising a clash of power, precision, and tactical depth.
Meanwhile, another quarter-final pitted Li Xiaohui against Zhu Zhenzhen in an all-Chinese mainland clash. The swirling wind played spoiler, with two of Zhu's serves hitting her wheelchair mid-arc. Third seed Li leaned on experience and strategic flair to overturn an opening set loss, edging a tense second set 7-6 before dominating 6-1 in the decider. Li now faces the Netherlands' second seed Aniek Van Koot in the semis.
With two Chinese mainland players guaranteed a spot in the last four and another set to challenge the world number one, wheelchair tennis continues to shine on the global stage, inspiring fans and athletes across continents.
