first chinese men ever to be seeded in grand slam. so proud of zzz!

[@online9191]

ATP is a really tough business. It is a great milestone.

[@Cla_Disney]

If this guy ever decided to quit tennis he could definitely work as a model, he's gorgeous

[@tomsd8656]

He did work as a model.

[@whatevs1700]

Or a Chinese action movie hero.

[@melanieruawai3363]

Yeah, he is very, very handsome. As you've said, gorgeous!

[@thetennissinologist]

So glad "Triple Z" chose tennis instead of soccer! Much credit to his coach Rendy Lu (盧彥勳) for giving him the ancient Chinese secrets of grass court tennis strategy!

[@yimchuang5972]

Go Zhang ❤🎉😊

[@celialou9357]

Glad to know Zhang this year. Can tell he’s solid and humble, great job winning the first round!!

[@angelatanurdzic7508]

Good job, Zhizhen 👍

[@evidencenutrition]

these tennis channel interviewers were struggling to hide their anti-china biases in this interview. its incredible. china is a wealthy, powerful country, much like the usa, and while they haven't been crazy successful in tennis, much of that is because of increased population (lots of people and its competitive) and decreased opportunity (there is a short asian swing of tournaments, meanwhile the usa has probably over 40+ ATP sanctioned events throughout the year)

[@whatevs1700]

Very impressed by his play this year… looking like a future top 10.

[@karo84]

Some brand please give him a modeling contract

[@candywilson6908]

Looks like he has a watch sponsor 😊

[@romanieo]

0:29 Does he still think every Chinese guy goes to sleep and wakes up swinging Nunchucks and Noodles? He asked Z, "you looked very comfortable on grass, where did you learn the techniques?" WTF kinda question is that? DUDE is a PROFESSIONAL TENNIS PLAYER!!! SMH.

[@gabrielho2493]

That man is beautiful.

[@earnthis1]

Great player! Zhang rules!

[@christinacrystal7242]

张真人🎉❤

[@eduardolopez8025]

Very good !

[@marcosmarcou4630]

The way he asked the first question about Chinese player and grass court sounded very very condescending

[@ProdigalExplorer]

Lets go Triple Z!

[@rolandzhang9077]

looks like Zzz speaks best english in chinese players

[@jackjhmc820]

Anyone knows where to watch his highlights?

[@rsharmaosi]

Cool watch

[@iamshadowbanned699]

I know he's younger than me, but he's a daddy 😍

[@pencilcheck]

Woohoo

[@talisha5863]

Cutie pie😘

[@earnthis1]

The interviewer is struggling

[@Andrew-mn6fi]

What year will the first Chinese man to win a grand slam? Chinese woman Li Na has

[@johnny123-v6q]

Already has lifted for another country as Micheal Tai pei chang ... you meant chinese nationality!!

[@khansensei666]

I thought it was Garbine Muguruza

[@stel2114]

The secret is sea cucumbers. All of the top Chinese players eat it every day.

[@AS-js7kb]

Where is Peng Shuai?

[@y2kstar306]

At Home

[@sawgames8623]

White nerds when they see a Chinese tennis player:

[@tootspogsforever5590]

With your mom?!!😀😃

[@mxmus08]

Triple Z making inroads now.

[@rebelpan9269]

What a stupid ass question, where do learn to play on grass,,,, wtf China no grass?
