      Congratulations to Shanghai University of Finance and Economics high-level tennis players Wang Xinyu and Wang Xiyu for being selected for the Hangzhou Asian Games national team!

 


Wang Xiyu

 


      Wang Xiyu is one of the current representatives of the Chinese tennis team. She has already won the Wimbledon and US Open junior titles, who is hailed as the most promising Chinese player to lift the Grand Slam (adult) trophy. Born in a sports family, she began practicing tennis at the age of four, and won the national women's singles championship in this age group at the age of 12, reaching a height of 1.8 meters by the age of 16. She won the 2016 Indian Junior Tennis Championships, the runner-up in the United States Junior Tennis Championship, the Nanjing Junior Tennis Championship in doubles, and the Osaka Mayor Junior Tennis Championship in Japan in doubles. Wang Xiyu continues to rise in the international rankings. 2018 was an unforgettable year on her way to chasing her dreams. Not only did she win her first adult women's singles title in the final of the ITF (International Tennis Federation) $25,000 tournament in Thailand, but she also won the US Open junior women's singles title, becoming the first Chinese mainland player in history to win the Grand Slam junior women's singles title. In the same year, she partnered with Wang Xinyu in the Wimbledon Junior Women's Doubles Final and won the championship again, becoming the first Chinese pair in Wimbledon history to win the junior women's doubles title.
