Wang Continues Her Impressive Start to the Season
Wang is currently on an impressive run of form having has won five our of her last six matches. In this period she has reached the fourth round of the Australian Open, beaten Serena Williams and has only lost to Ons Jabeur of Tunisia. With the second seed Petra Martic suffering an early exit from the tournament, she must be eyeing to win her third career title this week. The only higher seed remaining in the draw is Svitolina Elina.
2019 was a year of new highs for the Chinese number one. She reached her first-ever Grand Slam quarter-finals at the US Open and reached as high as 12 in the rankings last September.
