On March 2, 2024, in the quarterfinals of the women's singles at the WTA 250 Austin Station, China's Golden Flower Wang Xiyu and Cosling faced each other across the net. Wang Xiyu defeated her opponent 6-2 in the first set, and then Kosling withdrew, and Wang Xiyu directly advanced to the top 4. Top seed Kalinina defeated Parry 2-1 to secure a place in the semi-finals. Another Chinese derby, the showdown between Chinese Jinhua Yuan Yue and Wang Yafan, will also start today.
No.6 seed Wang Xiyu beat Podolska 7-5 6-4 in the first round, Semenistaya 6-1 6-2 in the second round and third seed Koslin in the quarter-finals. Wang Xiyu and American player Collins have played once before, and in the first round of the 2021 French Open, Wang Xiyu lost to the American player 1-2 and staged a round tour. The battle was a battle of revenge.
In the first round, the first two games were tied to 1-1. In the 3rd-5th game, Wang Xiyu first protected and then broke and then 4-1. Then, Koslin held serve to pull the game back, 2-4. In the 7th and 8th games, China Jinhua Love Game held serve and broke again, and easily won the first set 6-2.
In the second set, Koslin withdrew, and Wang Xiyu directly advanced to the top 4. In the semifinals, Wang Xiyu's opponent was the top seed Kalinina. The last time the two men met was at Acapulco 2020, where Wang swept past Kalinina 7-6(0) 7-5. Looking forward to the Chinese Jinhua KO opponent in the semifinals and the first final this season, come on!
