The Chinese tennis player sealed the victory with a 6-3, 7-5 win in 1 hour and 35 minutes of play. On the other hand, Coco Gauff lived up to her billing as the favorite, defeating Marta Kostyuk with a score of 6-4, 6-1 to set up a quarterfinal clash with Magda Linette.

At 38 years old, Richard Gasquet has announced that he will end his professional tennis career at Roland Garros 2025. "I believe it's the best time to do it," the Frenchman communicated to L'Equipe. "We, the French, are lucky to have a place like this. Deciding when and where to retire is always complicated. For us, it's evident," he adds. Gasquet, owner of one of the most aesthetic and beautiful one-handed backhands in the history of this sport, will bid farewell to his audience at the next edition of Roland Garros. Having been a former world number 1 junior, Richard always carried the heavy burden in his country of being Noah's successor to win a Grand Slam. Nonetheless, he reached world No. 7 and claimed 16 titles as a professional.

Coco Gauff arrived at the WTA Wuhan 2024 almost without time to celebrate her great trophy in Beijing. Even so, the American has adapted seamlessly to the second tournament, already making a place in the quarterfinals. In a press conference, she reveals the advice that former tennis players keep emphasizing to her, "Former tennis players kept telling me all the time that they regretted not taking advantage of the traveling experiences. That was like the biggest advice. People give tennis advice, but honestly, maybe appreciating life more. I think if you go from bubble to bubble too much, it makes you think that your life only revolves around tennis.
"Sometimes, as athletes, we punish ourselves by doing nothing, because we have to be ultra-focused. Honestly, during a week of training, I go to the movies, do something with my friends. There isn't any moment when I'm completely focused on tennis, so I try to treat the tournament that way."

Holger Rune is not performing as expected a couple of years ago, as that 2022 kid who became a promise thanks to his results and good sensations is nowhere to be found today. It is not known what is happening to the Danish player, if there is something more beyond our understanding. The continuous changes of coaches, his strong personality, and what is happening around him are not clear. He recently fell to Taylor Fritz at the Shanghai ATP easily in a match where he showed no game. In response, some media, especially from Denmark, have not hesitated to fiercely criticize him, like the newspaper BT. In an article discussing this harsh defeat, they wrote: "Holger Rune made a completely unworthy and frankly shameful effort when he lost to Fritz" or "he looked like a junior player making his ATP debut on the circuit".

The Spanish Tennis Federation, together with Pepe Imaz, will carry out a pioneering course in the world of tennis that will connect a triangle formed by Player-Parents-Coach, called ‘Emotions in Competition’, addressing the importance of the emotional well-being required by a sport as intense as tennis.
Thanks to Pepe's experience in training and having worked with top tennis players like Djokovic or Verdasco, among others, this course will focus on the player working on the mental aspect since, in an individual sport like tennis, it is essential that the mind is in tune with everything else. The innovative aspect of this course (which will start in November) is that it will simultaneously involve players, their parents, and coaches. The aim is for parents to contribute the emotional and bonding part with the player, and for coaches to listen to the player, understand them, and effectively communicate the technical aspects.
