Jelena Ostapenko defeated Qinwen Zheng 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 — Italian Open 2026 R32.
Qinwen Zheng and Jelena Ostapenko are level at 1–1 across 2 recorded meetings.
Jelena Ostapenko dropped the opening set 6-4 and then turned the match on her second serve, winning 48% of those points (16 of 33) to Qinwen Zheng's 29% (8 of 28). That 19-point gap behind the second ball decided a contest Zheng controlled early — the Chinese hit 14 aces to five but couldn't hold the back end of her service games, converting only 2 of 4 break chances while Ostapenko broke three times in the final two sets. In their first clay meeting, Ostapenko evens the H2H at 1-1 by winning 71% of return points off Zheng's second serve.
