For her first tournament of the season – in fact, her first tournament since September – Qinwen Zheng can be sure that she will leave the WTA 1000 in Doha having tested her physical condition. But when will the Chinese be eliminated? For now, forget about that idea, as she seems determined to fight for it all. We already saw her overcome a tough debut against Sofia Kenin (4-6, 6-1, 6-2), a victory that has now been followed by a new one against Alycia Parks (7-6, 3-6, 6-2). The real test will come in the round of 16, when she will have to face the most in-form woman on the circuit: Elena Rybakina
