Wow! from rank 133 up to about 40!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Question

Jie Zheng in the semis.

if Serena can't kill her with the service i predict a very tough match. as soon as the ball stay in play Zheng fight like crazy :)

what do you think are the chances of Zheng to reach the final? for me it's undecided atm 50:50

Answer 1

as a chinese..i'm so happy for her but serena too strong for her...i still hope she do her best to fight for at least take one set from serena....

Answer 2

Zheng has been playing well, but I still give Serena the slight edge.

However, I am hoping that she can beat her since I desperately want Venus to win again. I am unsure as to whether or not Venus could beat Serena.

Answer 3

Zheng is a great player, but overall Serena is way better..serena  has more chances against Zheng too.Zheng has proved many things this time, but Serena will still be able to hold Zheng back...plus i want to see the All Williams Finals come true..that would be interesting..it hasn't happened in a while..for finals...so yea...but Zheng..i don't think can surpass Serena

Answer 4

I surely hope she'll beat Serena and claim the title on her birthday (saturday's final is zheng's 25 birthday) to become the first chinese female and the second chinese race to win a grand slam since Michael Chang in 1989 French Open.  But still I have to give Serena a slightly edged due to her past records, performance and her powerful games that suits to play on grass.  Regardless of what result, Zheng is confirmed to break into top 50 in ranking and her achievement is highly appreciated and recognized as she has "killed" 3 seeded player along the way.  Win or loss, I expect her to give Serena a real fight.  If she doesn't win, I'm really hope that Venus can win.

Answer 5

ya, 50:50 is about right  it should be good

Answer 6

Well she's not there just yet, though she is 4-1 up against Vaidisova. But Jie Zheng has been as high as 27 in the world in singles so the fact that she's gotten this far doesn't really surprise me. She a tenacious tennis player who fights for every point and has a good game.

I don't think she'll beat Serena (who has just played a great game against Radwanska) but she'll certainly give it her best.

Answer 7

zheng has been amazing, but serena is too strong for her. I think Serena will get her in straight sets. But I give a lot of credit to Zheng for making it this far and beating Ivanovic. Serena also just killed Radwanska 6-4, 6-0. A bagel in there! That says something about a fighter who will give their all to win!
