Celebrating her 22nd birthday at the Wuhan Open, Zheng has been on a grueling competition schedule over the past year. This tournament marks her 18th event of the season. Since her Olympic triumph, she has had little time to rest, transitioning from the North American circuit to the Chinese season and continually competing.

"There are moments when I feel a bit mentally exhausted because I'm playing so many matches in a row, and each one brings its own pressures that I need to confront. But I'm managing okay — like you all say, sometimes you just have to show up even when you don't feel like it," she joked.

"Actually I'm really happy to be competing in Wuhan because it's my hometown. If I were in a different place, I might not feel as motivated," she added. "We're nearing the end of the season, and everyone is feeling fatigued. But for me, it's easier to find motivation when I'm playing at home."

Following her victory on Wednesday, which secured her a place in the round of 16 at the Wuhan Open, Zheng's ranking for championship points has risen to No 7, significantly enhancing her chances of qualifying for the year-end finals.

Zheng spent her elementary school years in Wuhan, a period she values deeply. In her eyes, the city was instrumental in laying the groundwork for her tennis career.
