Xinyu Wang Form

Wang Xinyu reached the second round at Wimbledon for the third consecutive year with a commanding 7-5, 6-2 win over world No.14 Karolina Muchova. She saved four of five break points and dropped just one service game in the match.

With this victory, Wang has now secured five consecutive wins over top-20 opponents, four of which came during her impressive run to the final in Berlin just weeks ago.

The 23-year-old had entered the grass season in poor form, having lost seven of her previous eight matches on tour. Nine of her 12 appearances this year had ended in first-round exits, including both Grand Slams.

However, her momentum shifted once the grass swing began. After an early exit in Rosmalen, Wang found her rhythm in Berlin, reaching the final where she pushed Marketa Vondrousova in a tight contest.

She holds a 1–1 record in second-round matches at Wimbledon. After losing to Sofia Kenin at this stage two years ago, she pulled off a major upset last year by defeating then-world No.4 Jessica Pegula in three sets.

Zeynep Sonmez Stats

Current rank: 88
Career high rank: 76
Elo rank: 129
Season record: 16–16
Grand Slam record: 1–3
Tour-level grass record: 2–2

Zeynep Sonmez Form

Zeynep Sonmez advanced to the second round with a 7-6, 6-3 win over clay-court specialist Jaqueline Cristian, rallying from 2-5 down in the opening set and saving five of nine break points.

The result was a welcome breakthrough for the 23-year-old, who had lost all three of her previous Grand Slam main-draw matches, including two earlier this year. Both of her past Wimbledon appearances ended in the qualifying rounds.

Consistency has been hard to come by this season, with 14 of her 16 tour-level appearances ending in either qualifying exits or first-round defeats, including recent losses at Queen’s Club and Eastbourne.

Her best result of the year came in Merida back in February, where she reached the quarterfinals with notable wins over Maria Sakkari and Magda Linette, before falling to Emma Navarro in straight sets.

Verdict

Xinyu Wang v Zeynep Sonmez

Wang Xinyu comes in with strong momentum, having won 7 of her last 9 matches on grass, including five wins over top-20 opponents. That form and confidence position her well for a potential deep run.

In contrast, Zeynep Sonmez lacks both form and experience on grass, making this a likely one-sided contest in favor of the Chinese player.
