Wang Xinyu attributed her loss to distraction caused by a minor incident, while Draper's Sunshine Double journey ended in a collapse.

Before the second round of the Miami tournament was fully completed, Wang Xinyu and British player Draper bid farewell to the North American Sunshine Double with a bagel defeat, leaving supporters heartbroken!

After a first-round exit at Indian Wells, Wang Xinyu moved to Miami and ascended to the position of "China's top female player" by default, relegating Zheng Qinwen to what some fans and netizens call "Zheng the second sister."

Furthermore, since Wang Xinyu's draw was widely considered the best among all Chinese players, many eagerly anticipated her defeating McNally twice consecutively and securing her first victory as the new top Chinese female player.

However, after Wang Xinyu lost the first set 4-6 and quickly leveled the match by serving McNally a breadstick in the second set, the expected comeback script did not unfold. Wang completely collapsed in the deciding set, ending her Sunshine Double journey with a bagel, which was lamentable.

Under such high expectations, Wang Xinyu exited the Miami singles stage in an ungraceful manner, suffering first-round losses in both Sunshine Double singles events. The public found this performance hard to accept. When discussing her loss post-match, Wang uttered a philosophical remark: "There are always surprises where you have no expectations, and disappointments where you have expectations."

The public viewed Wang's statement as "very relatable," mainly because it directly echoed the thoughts of many fans and netizens.

Immediately after Wang's loss, while热议 her first-round exit in Miami, many pointed out that Wang's matches often follow this pattern: when expectations are high, the script tends to deviate; when no hope is held, surprises can suddenly appear.

Some joked that Wang might avidly read fan and netizen comments after each loss, leading to her感慨 in Miami. This indeed justifies why so many continue to adore this beautiful player, as she "shares such a common sentiment with everyone on this matter."

Additionally, during the interview, Wang addressed another widely concerned issue: why, after impressively serving McNally a breadstick in the second set, she unexpectedly suffered a bagel in the deciding set—what exactly happened?

"After leading 3-0 in the third set, I waited for my restrung rackets, but both came back with incorrect tension. It's not that such a minor issue caused the loss, but when you're in good form, a small disruption distracted me." After this explanation for the deciding-set bagel, the惋惜 over Wang's Miami loss intensified. Some questioned why team staff made such a basic error, as avoiding it could have prevented the back-to-back first-round exits in the Sunshine Double.

British player Draper currently garners nearly equal sympathy as Wang Xinyu, primarily because his exit from the Sunshine Double was also highly ungraceful, with both Masters events ending in severe setbacks.

After a five-month hiatus, Draper returned at Indian Wells Masters brimming with confidence, boldly stating new comeback goals: "returning to the world's top five and winning a Grand Slam title."

While everyone anticipated how Draper, as defending champion at Indian Wells, would perform against Alcaraz in a potential semifinal, his quarterfinal against Medvedev ended abruptly. A penalty due to Medvedev's complaint about an干扰动作 unexpectedly shattered Draper, halting his title defense.

Moving to Miami Masters, expectations for Draper remained, but his collapse this time was even more baffling.

In the second round against big-server Opelka, Draper showed strong determination to prove himself. He battled to a tiebreak in the first set, losing it 3-7, yet received warm encouragement from fans and netizens urging him to regain confidence and push on in the second set.

However, after reaching another tiebreak in the second set, Draper collapsed bewilderingly, ultimately being shut out in the tiebreak by Opelka.

Post-match comments were意味深长, noting that even if Draper couldn't win, scoring zero points in a tiebreak was quite离谱. How mentally崩溃 must he have been to produce such a score? Suggestions arose that Draper should promptly lower his comeback targets to avoid greater future setbacks, as achieving "top five and a Grand Slam title by late 2027" seems considerably difficult given his current form.

Though Draper's loss was ungraceful, many still regarded this match as one of the most thrilling since the Miami Masters began.

The reason lies in the sudden Ace shots that skyrocketed adrenaline. Opelka blasted 25 Aces throughout, 18 more than Draper, which was a key factor in crushing Draper's confidence and leading to his second-set tiebreak bagel.

A netizen humorously described the scene: whenever Opelka tossed the ball upward, Draper could only participate in that point's competition, illustrating how heavily the British player was affected.（Source: Tennis Home Author: Moon River's Starry Sky）
