Hong Kong had its most successful outing at the National Games since first taking part in 1997, as it claimed its first-ever medal in a tennis team event, finishing with a bronze in the men’s (under-20) category. Seeded 3rd, the boys beat Chongqing in the first round and Hebei in the quarterfinals before top-seeded Jiangsu halted their progress in the semifinals.<\/p>\n
Coleman Wong became the first player from Hong Kong to medal in singles after eventual champion Wu Yibing halted his progress in a hard-fought semifinal 6-7(6) 7-6(7) 6-4. After taking the opening set, Wong trailed Wu Yibing 6-2 in the second set tiebreak but saved four successive set points to peg the score back to an even-steven 6-6. They were all square again at 7-7 before Wu Yibing strong-armed the next two points to claim the breaker 9-7 and force a decider.<\/p>\n
Wu Yibing broke Wong in the opening game of the third set and played extremely well to ride that one-break advantage right until the end when he conjured a spectacular forehand winner on match point to prevail. Wong had beaten Wu twice before, first at the Asian Games in 2023 when he saved five match points from 6-1 down in the third set tiebreak to win 6-4 3-6 7-6 and then again at the ATP 250 Hangzhou Open when Wu Yibing retired hurt after conceding the first set 6-3.<\/p>\n
The women’s doubles pairing of Eudice Chong\/Cody Wong defeated Wang Qiang\/Zheng Saisai (Tianjin) to reach the quarterfinals before they went down against top-seeded Tang Qianhui\/Guo Hanyu (Sichuan) and came in 5th place. The men’s doubles pairing of Coleman Wong\/Kevin Wong also placed fifth after 4th-seeded eventual champions Tang Sheng\/Sun Qian (Jiangsu) bested them in the last eight.<\/p>\n
In women’s doubles, Wang Qiang\/Zheng Saisai (Tianjin) were serving for the first set leading 5-3, 40-0, but Eudice Chong\/Cody Wong saved four set points and broke the Tianjin pair to get back on serve. The HK duo eventually took the set in a tiebreak 7-5. Chong and Wong had the momentum and broke first in the second to go up 4-2. Now just two games away from one of their biggest wins, Wang and Zheng conjured their own service break to peg the score back to 4-3. However, Chong and Wong, were not to be denied, as they swiftly returned the favour and broke back for 5-3 before holding serve confidently to register a 7-6(5) 6-3 victory for the ages.<\/p>\n
It must be said that Wang Qiang and Zheng Saisai are two of China’s top players in recent memory. In women’s doubles at the National Games, Zheng Saisai won a silver in 2013 and a bronze in 2021. In women’s singles, Wang Qiang won a gold in 2017 and 2021, while Zheng Saisai was also a silver medallist in 2021. Wang Qiang also won the gold medal in singles at the 2014 and 2018 Asian Games.<\/p>\n
Before the emergence of Zheng Qinwen, Wang Qiang’s career-high WTA ranking of No. 12 makes her the second highest-ranked Chinese singles player in history after only Li Na, who peaked at No. 2 in the world. Zheng Saisai reached a career-high doubles ranking of No. 15 in the world and captured six WTA doubles titles. She was a doubles semifinalist at the Australian Open and a runner-up at the French Open.<\/p>\n
Prior to this year, Hong Kong had only medalled once at the National Games back in 2001 courtesy of John Hui\/Melvin Tong’s bronze in men’s doubles. That year, the HK duo defeated No. 2 seed Jiang Shan\/Zhu Ben-Qiang in most dramatic fashion in the 3rd place playoff to cement the historic bronze.<\/p>\n
