Wang Qiang made good on her second chance to enter the semifinals at the 2018 Hengqin Life WTA Elite Trophy Zhuhai, and she used it to power into the final after a stunning win over Garbine Muguruza in straight sets.
Wang replaced Madison Keys at the eleventh hour, after the American who won the Azalea Group was forced to withdraw due to a left knee injury. The Chinese player recovered strongly to notch a comprehensive 6-2, 6-0 win, claiming eleven games in a row over the two-time Grand Slam champion.
