SYDNEY - Chinese world No. 5 Zheng Qinwen pulled out of the season-opening United Cup on Dec 22, citing the need for more rest. But she plans to be at the Australian Open.
The 22-year-old is coming off a breakthrough season that reaped three singles titles, with the highlight being winning the Olympic women's singles gold in Paris.
She also won WTA Tour titles in Tokyo and Palermo and was runner-up at the Wuhan Open and the WTA Finals - in a season where she played 68 matches and earned US$5.6 million (S$7.6 million) in prize money. She also made her first Grand Slam final, at Melbourne Park, losing in straight sets to current world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka on the back of playing the United Cup in Perth.
Zheng has opted for more rest this time, ahead of the season-opening Major from Jan 12 to 26.
