PARIS, May 30 -- Chinese tennis player Wang Qiang posted her personal best record at Grand Slam tournaments as she reached last 32 at the 2018 French Open here on Wednesday.
Wang only conceded two games to ease past Croatia's Petra Martic 6-1, 6-1 in their second round duel.
Wang bettered in first serve and points won through first and second serves, while suffering six less unforced errors than her opponent.
Wang, boosted by her victory over American great Venus Williams in the previous round, finished astutely and confused Martic with her various hitting lines, taking away the first set 6-1.
"I had expected it (set a new personal best record) after winning my first match here.
"My coach told me that if I maintained my momentum of overcoming Williams, I would win today," said the 85th-ranked Wang.
Wang never slowed down in her attack, and too many unforced errors had already decided Martic's fate in the match. She furiously threw her racquet onto the pitch in the third game of the second set, but that proved to be of little help in front of unstoppable Wang, who took on another 6-1 to set her position in last 32.
"I didn't play her before, so I needed to do what I should do and play more aggressively," commented Wang.
Wang recorded a below-par clay season this year before making into the quarter-finals in Strasbourg, the final warm-up tournament ahead of Roland Garros.
Wang thought that she just needed to focus on herself without thinking further about possible fixtures ahead.
"I didn't think that I can beat Williams after the draw. I will try to play well in every match," she pointed out.
Wang's best record at Grand Slam tournaments before Wednesday was the second round, where she stayed several times since 2017.
She will meet Yulia Putintseva of Kazakhstan in the third round.
"I will not care about her, and just try to play at my level.
"She's good at spinners, and solid on base line. I need to be patient and grasp my opportunity," added Wang.
