| Bio | Zhang Shuai is a Chinese professional tennis player. She has a career-high singles ranking of world No. 23, achieved on 14 November 2016, and a career-high doubles ranking of No. 9, set on 20 May 2019. Zhang has won 24 singles titles: 20 on the ITF Women's Circuit, two on the WTA Tour – both at the Guangzhou International Women's Open – and two in the WTA 125K series. In doubles, she has won 17 titles (8 ITF, 8 WTA, 1 WTA 125K), including the 2019 Australian Open, partnered with Samantha Stosur. Zhang won her first singles match in a Grand Slam tournament at the 2016 Australian Open, when, as a qualifier, she defeated world No. 2 Simona Halep en route to the quarterfinals. Zhang had lost all 14 of her main-draw Grand Slam matches up to that point, a stretch that started with the 2008 US Open. She also reached the quarterfinals at the 2019 Wimbledon Championships. Alongside Li Na, Zheng Jie, Peng Shuai, and Wang Qiang, Zhang is one of only five Chinese tennis players to have reached the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam tournament. Zhang, born in Tianjin, started playing tennis at the age of six, when her parents took her to a local tennis club. She turned professional in 2003 and played her first singles event in Mollerusa in August of that year. After defeating Matilde Munoz-Gonzalves in the first qualifying round, she lost to Laura Figuerola-Foix. After a full year on the ITF Women's circuit, Zhang finished 2004 with a year-end ranking of 901st. She enjoyed considerable success in singles on ITF tournaments, having won one $50k event, eight $25k and three $10k events between 2006 and 2009. As of October 2009, however, she had won only two main-draw tournaments on the WTA Tour. She won her first WTA singles title at the 2013 Guangzhou International Women's Open as a wild card entrant. Her parents are Zhang Zhiqiang (a former football player) and Wang Fengqin (a former basketball player). She has spoken of opening a coffee bar when she retires. Her English name is Rose. |
