JAKARTA The gold medalist at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Zheng Qinwen, officially resigned from the US Open 2025 because he was still recovering after a right elbow surgery.
World number six, quarter-finalist US Open twice, said in a post on social media last weekend that he underwent successful surgery on his right elbow and is now recovering.
"I completed yesterday's operation, it went very smoothly, and I'm recovering," he wrote as reported by Xinhua.
The problem with the elbow made Zhen experience constant pain, both in training and matches.
After trying various treatments but not successful, Zheng decided to undergo artroscopy surgery after consulting with elbow specialists and his support team.

"In the coming period, I will focus my efforts on rehabilitation exercises, trying to return to the field in 100 percent condition as soon as possible," he said.
The 22-year-old Chinese is enjoying an outstanding performance last year, including winning gold at the Paris Olympics and reaching the Australian Open final.
However, the momentum was stalled at Wimbledon 2025. At the grass court, he was eliminated in the first round against Czech Republic player! Siniakova, in early July 2025.
Zheng's decision to withdraw from the US Open 2025 prompted Leolia Jeanjean from France to advance to the main round of the last Grand Slam event of the season, which starts on August 24, 2025 in New York.
