Major surprise in the second round of the 2025 Australian Open. Chinese player Qinwen Zheng, the fifth seed, finalist in 2024 and Olympic gold medalist at the Paris Games, fell in just two sets to the veteran Laura Siegemund, 36 years old (7-6 6-3). Zheng didn't have her day and couldn't win the first set tiebreak, which Siegemund played very solidly. Moving on to the second set, nerves got the best of her at the beginning, allowing the German to take an advantage that Zheng couldn't recover from. Thus, Laura Siegemund will face Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova or Potatova in the third round.
