Zheng Qinwen said she can’t quite believe she’s made it all the way to a the final of a grand slam.
“It feels unbelievable – I mean, I’m super excited to have such a great performance today and arrive in the final,” she told Alicia Molik.
“It’s tough to explain my feeling now … thanks for all the support and thanks to my team as well.”
Perhaps not super confident with her english, Molik gave Zheng the opportunity to address the massive Chinese contingent in Rod Laver Arena with a few words in Cantonese.
This scribe is a monolingual, but whatever she said absolutely roused the fans.
