Qinwen Zheng hintar om att byta till golf efter tenniskarriären

Tennisstjärnan Qinwen Zheng har uttryckt intresse för att börja spela golf, antingen som ett alternativ eller efter att hon avslutat sin idrottskarriär. Finalisten i Australian Open 2024 gav kommentaren efter sin seger i första omgången av Italian Open.

Zheng, som har tjänat över 10 miljoner dollar i prispengar under sin karriär, blev själv överraskad av sin naturliga talang på golfbanan. Hon noterade likheter mellan sin backhand i tennis och en golfsving som gör övergången lockande. "Jag blev också överraskad över att jag har bra färdigheter. Kanske borde jag spela golf, inte tennis! Eller så börjar jag spela golf efter att jag har gått i pension. Vem vet?" berättade hon för Tennis Channel.
