The match was not all smooth sailing, and the Chinese team lost to Djokovic in the men's singles match earlier, putting the Chinese team under some pressure. However, Zheng Qinwen stepped up and brought excitement to the Chinese team with his strong ability to fight back against adversity.
The first set was unfavorable for Zheng, with Danilovic holding serve 1-0 after a slightly unfavourable start, while Zheng suffered a break in his first service game to give his opponent a 2-0 lead. However, the Chinese sister was not discouraged, and hit consecutive crossing balls to achieve a break back in the third game, 1-2. Subsequently, Zheng Qinwen struggled to hold serve, 2-2, broke serve again, and overtook the score 3-2, which gradually heated up the atmosphere of the game.
In the 6th game, Danilovic was obviously tired, and Zheng Qinwen successfully held serve and extended the advantage 4-2. Although the opponent struggled to hold serve in the 7th game and bit the score 3-4, Zheng Qinwen showed excellent performance in the following situation, holding serve in a row and leading 5-3. Although Danilovic bit the game again, 4-5, Zheng Qinwen finally cashed in on serve to win the set and won the thrilling 6-4 victory, leading Danilovic 1-0.
