Qinwen Zheng vs Maria Sakkari — R32 — Nottingham Open

Zheng, 85 places below Sakkari at #122, flipped a one-set hole into a grass-court upset on the strength of her serve. The Greek dropped serve only twice all match but couldn't break back — Zheng saved 1 of 2 break points and rode 10 aces, winning 94% of first-serve points in the second set to force the tiebreak she took 7-1. The lone break of the decider came in game nine. A set point and a match point came and went before Zheng closed it. She faces Talia Gibson next.
