Wang Xinyu[a] (born 26 September 2001) is a Chinese professional tennis player. She reached a career-high singles ranking of world No. 30 on 23 February 2026, and a best doubles ranking of world No. 16 on 20 May 2024. Partnering with Hsieh Su-wei, she won the women's doubles title at the 2023 French Open. Wang also won a silver medal in mixed doubles, alongside Zhang Zhizhen at the 2024 Summer Olympics.

Personal life

[edit]

Wang was born in Shenzhen, Guangdong.[2][3][4] Her father, Wang Peng (born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang),[5] is a former head coach of the Shenzhen tennis team and the Chinese women's national tennis team, but resigned from the latter to concentrate on his daughter's tennis career.[6][7] Her mother was a former player in the Zhejiang women's basketball team.[5] Wang showed great enthusiasm for tennis from early childhood and, coached by her father, she started playing properly at the age of five.[8]

Career

[edit]

2018: Major debut and junior champion

[edit]
Wang at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics

Wang booked her ticket to her major debut at the 2018 Australian Open on 3 December 2017 in Zhuhai by winning the Asia-Pacific Wildcard Playoffs, coming back to edge out the Papua New Guinean No. 1, Abigail Tere-Apisah, in the final. Tere-Apisah was only two points away from victory when leading 5–3, 30–0 in the second set, looking to become the first player from Papua New Guinea to compete in a major main draw, when momentum shifted and Wang, demonstrating fearlessness for her age, won the next seven points, before going on to level the match. Wang eventually won the match in three sets, seizing the most crucial break with a splendid backhand passing shot in the ninth game, and then closed out the final set after saving four break points.[9] "It's probably the most important day in my life so far," Wang said in the post-match news conference to CCTV Sports Channel, the official TV broadcaster of the Australian Open in China.[10] At the age of 16, she was the youngest Chinese player to make a Grand Slam championship main draw.[11][6][10] At the 2018 Australian Open, as the second youngest competitor in the main draw (just older than 15-year-old Marta Kostyuk), Wang lost her debut match at a major to Alizé Cornet, in straight sets.[12] But going through to the girls' doubles final with her partner Liang En-shuo from Taiwan, Wang claimed the title in a close match against Violet Apisah of Papua New Guinea (Abigail Tere-Apisah's niece) and Lulu Sun, a New Zealand-born Swiss player of Chinese descent.[13][14][15][16]

2019: WTA Premier debut, first career doubles title

[edit]

She made her Premier Mandatory debut at the 2019 Miami Open as a wildcard.

In September, Wang reached her first WTA Tour-level final at the Jiangxi International Open in the doubles event. Alongside Zhu Lin, she defeated compatriots Peng Shuai and Zhang Shuai.[17]

2020–2021: Top 100 debut in singles

[edit]

She made her debut in the top 100, after reaching the quarterfinal of the Ladies Linz at world No. 99 in the year-end rankings, on 15 November 2021. However, she lost to the eventual champion, Alison Riske.

2022: First major win and top 75 in singles, top 100 in doubles

[edit]

Wang won her first match in a Grand Slam tournament, which was against Ann Li, and was defeated in the second round at the Australian Open by world No. 2, Aryna Sabalenka.[18][19]

She made her top 100 debut in doubles, on 25 April 2022, and top 75 in singles, on 16 May 2022, after winning her biggest title on the ITF World Tennis Tour at the 100k Solgironès Open in Spain.[20]

2023: Major title in doubles, singles fourth round and top 50

[edit]
Wang won her first Grand Slam title at the 2023 French Open.

Partnering Hsieh Su-wei at the French Open, using protected ranking, she reached the final for the first time at a major. En-route the pair upset defending champion Kristina Mladenovic, who was partnering Zhang Shuai this year, in the second round, and fifth seeds Desirae Krawczyk and Demi Schuurs in the third. In the quarterfinals, they beat Veronika Kudermetova and Liudmila Samsonova, and in the semifinals sixth seeds Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Ellen Perez. In their first final as a pair, they defeated Leylah Fernandez and Taylor Townsend to win the title, their first title as a team and the first major title for Wang Xinyu.[21]

At the US Open, she reached the fourth round in singles for the first time at a major.[22]

At the China Open, she reached the third round at the WTA 1000 level for the second time by defeating 11th seed Daria Kasatkina.[23] As a result, she reached the top 35 in the WTA rankings on 9 October 2023.

2024: WTA 1000 singles & doubles semifinals, Olympic silver medal in mixed doubles

[edit]

Using protected ranking on her debut, she reached in doubles, the second round at the Miami Open and the quarterfinals at the Madrid Open with Zheng Saisai. Also on her debut, she reached the semifinals for the first time at the next WTA 1000, the Italian Open, again with Zheng, upsetting top-seeded pair Hsieh/Mertens to face third seeds Gauff and Routliffe for a spot in the final.[24] Wang and Zheng won the doubles at the Berlin Open.[25]

At Wimbledon, she defeated world No. 5, Jessica Pegula, in the second round to record her first win over a top-10 ranked player.[26] Wang went on to reach the fourth round before she lost to 21st seed Elina Svitolina.[27] She won the silver medal with Zhang Zhizhen in mixed doubles at the Paris Summer Olympics.[28]

At the Wuhan Open, she reached her first singles semifinal at the WTA 1000-level defeating second seed and world No. 3, Jessica Pegula, in the round of 16, her second top five win in three months,[29] and Ekaterina Alexandrova in the quarterfinals.[30] The semifinal between her and compatriot Zheng Qinwen was the first All-Chinese showdown at this level, where she lost to Zheng in straight sets.[31][32]

2025: WTA Tour singles final

[edit]

Partnering with Zheng Saisai, Wang reached the doubles final at the Singapore Open, losing to second seeds Desirae Krawczyk and Giuliana Olmos.[33]

At the Berlin Ladies Open, she qualified for the main draw and defeated Daria Kasatkina,[34] second seed Coco Gauff,[35] eighth seed Paula Badosa[36] and Liudmila Samsonova to make it through to her first WTA Tour singles final.[37][38] She lost the championship match to Markéta Vondroušová in three sets.[39]

Seeded second at the Tennis in Cleveland, Wang overcame Suzan Lamens,[40] qualifier Talia Gibson[41] and Viktorija Golubic[42] to reach the semifinals, at which point she lost to Ann Li.[43]

2026: Major fourth round, top 30

[edit]

Wang started her 2026 season at the ASB Classic in Auckland where, seeded seventh, she defeated Caty McNally,[44] Renata Zarazúa,[45] Francesca Jones[46] and Alexandra Eala to make it into her second WTA Tour singles final.[47] She lost the championship match to top seed Elina Svitolina in straight sets.[48]

At the Australian Open, wins over qualifier Anhelina Kalinina,[49] 24th seed Jeļena Ostapenko[50] and 13th seed Linda Nosková saw her reach the second week of a Grand Slam tournament for the first time,[51] at which point her run was ended by fourth seed Amanda Anisimova.[52]

In February at the Transylvania Open, she teamed up again with Zheng Saisai to make it through to the doubles final, losing to Kamilla Rakhimova and Sara Sorribes Tormo.[53]

At the French Open, she defeated Lilli Tagger in the first round[54] before losing to Tamara Korpatsch in an emotionally heated three-set match. Wang received a code violation for walking to her opponent's side of the court while Korpatsch received a violation for celebrating too early. She refused to shake hands with Wang in the end after the latter reiterated her disapproval at net of Korpatsch allegedly pointing out a wrong ball mark to the umpire.[55]

In June at the Bad Homburg Open, Wang defeated qualifier Renata Zarazua [56] and Leylah Fernandez,[57] before receiving a walkover into the semifinals when Elina Svitolina withdrew from the tournament.[58] She lost to sixth seed Naomi Osaka in the last four.[59]

Coaching team

[edit]

Wang's team consisted of her father, Wang Peng; a Serbian technical coach, Aleksandar Slović, who won the men's singles title at the 2009 Summer Universiade and once trained with Novak Djokovic when he was younger; a fitness coach, Miro Hrvatin from Croatia; and a Chinese physio from Nanjing.[11] With the help of Slović, Wang was able to train with a few Serbian players abroad.[8] She currently trains at the Tennis & Badminton Centre of the Shenzhen Sports Centre.[2][3] She is also coached by Saisai Zheng.[citation needed]
