French Open: China's Zheng Overcomes Arango; Joining Paolini In Third Round In Paris
Paris Olympic Games: China's Olympic gold medallist Zheng Qinwen defeated Emiliana Arango of Colombia in a won a tough two-setter in a women's singles clash at the French Open, joining No. 4 and last year's finalist Jasmine Paolini of Italy in the third round on Wednesday.
The No. 8 seed overcame the challenge of Arango 6-2, 6-3 in a 1-hour, 37-minute contest that was a good deal tougher than the scoreline suggested. Arango was one of nine players making her Grand Slam debut in this year's main draw, and Zheng will next face another -- the surging 18-year-old qualifier Victoria Mboko, who advanced 6-4, 6-4 over Eva Lys.
Zheng's win over Arango is the 22-year-old's eighth consecutive victory on the clay courts of Roland Garros since the Paris Olympic Games last year.
