It was, in all likelihood, the worst streak in the history of this sport. 24 consecutive defeats at the WTA level and not a single victory in 603 days, precisely since the Lyon 2023 tournament. However, it is known that the sun always shines after the worst storm, and Shuai Zhang was patient enough to find her way back to victory. She achieved it at home, in her debut at the WTA Beijing 2024, where she defeated McCartney Kessler by 7-6(5) and 7-6(1) to end a drought that seemed endless. With a wildcard and now out of the top 500 WTA, we will see how far a liberated Zhang can go, finally relieved of a massive burden.
