In the focus game of the first round of the WTA 500 Berlin Grassland Championship, which ended on the evening of June 18, the No. 4 seed Paulini lost to Tunisian veteran Jabbar with a score of 1-6 and 3-6, and ended in the first round. In this way, she defeated Zheng Qinwen with only 3 points and won the No. 4 seed of Wimbledon.

Before this site, Zheng Qinwen lost 60 valid points in the same period last year, and the ranking fell from the fourth in the world to the fifth in the world, while Paulini was only 3 points ahead of Zheng Qinwen. Originally, the Berlin 500 match was the decisive battle between the two for the No. 4 seed of Wimbledon. Unfortunately, Zheng Qinwen finally withdrew from the match due to a neck injury before the start of the first round.

Zheng Qinwen also missed the throne of the fourth in the world in front of Wimbledon in advance, and after Case was eliminated, he was determined to rank 5th in the world and competed with the No. 5 seed to fight Wimbledon, which is about to start. Who would have thought that Paulini was eliminated in the first round of the Berlin Championship. In the end, she only had a slight 3-point advantage ahead of Zheng Qinwen.

If Zheng Qinwen does not withdraw from the Berlin Station and defeats Lebakinna in the first round, he will surpass Paulini in the world rankings and rise to 4th place in the world, becoming the No. 4 seed of Wimbledon.

As we all know, the top 4 seeds of the Grand Slam will be in 4 districts respectively when they draw lots, and they will not meet before the semi-finals. Originally, if Zheng Qinwen became the No. 4 seed, he would be able to avoid Sabalenka and Goff before the semi-finals. But as she finally plays as the No. 5 seed, she is likely to meet these two miserables in her career again in the quarter-finals.
