You know that Zheng Qinwen, out since Wimbledon, was full of keenness and adrenaline in her first match back since Wimbledon, in the second round.

Now, it was back to business as she faced a stronger opponent in No. 26 seed Linda Noskova. And the elbow, it seems, didn’t hold up.

Three of the eight matches ended in retirements.
