Zheng vs Sabalenka preview

Qinwen Zheng vs Aryna Sabalenka may not be the Australian Open 2024 women's singles final that many would have predicted a couple of weeks ago, but there's no doubt that the tournament's two best players feature. The fearless Zheng is competing in her first major showpiece, while defending champion Sabalenka has the experience and power game. Don't miss it.

There's a sense of destiny to Zheng's run to the final. Ten years on from compatriot Li Na's Australian Open crown, the Chinese has been in fine form this tournament, dropping only two sets. Though yet to face a seed, the 21-year-old's mega-spin forehand is reminiscent of peak Rafa Nadal for its rotation and, having reunited with coach Pere Riba she's reached a career-high ranking of 15. "I have to stick to my tennis and forget about the emotions," said Zheng. "I'll fight."

Sabalenka's 7-6, 6-4 semi-final defeat of Coco Gauff laid to rest the ghosts of letting a set lead slip against the American in the US Open final last fall. The 25-year-old's dominant ground strokes were much to the fore against Gauff, as they have been all tournament with her yet to drop a set. The errors that occasionally creep in under pressure have been absent and the defending champion looks in ominous form.

Sabalenka won the only previous meeting between the players. Follow our guide as we explain how you can watch a Zheng vs Sabalenka live stream and watch Australian Open 2024 from wherever you are now.
