Liang Sun has struggled to find her footing on the professional circuit, with a career win percentage of just 15.4% and a current form that reflects a troubling trajectory. Over the past two years, she has won only once in 13 matches, indicating a steep decline as she approaches this Wimbledon encounter. Her Elo rating of 1376 suggests she is operating well below the competitive standard on grass, where her first serve win percentage hovers around 54.1%.
Recent performances paint a bleak picture, with Liang losing her last four matches, including two straight-set defeats in Ilkley and Berlin. Her most recent victory came against Evin Mcdonald, but that was a rare highlight in an otherwise dismal stretch. As she steps onto the Wimbledon grass, the pressure mounts; she needs to tap into her potential to avoid another early exit.

Her last outing saw her fall to S. Kraus, and she has not won since early May. The defeats against higher-ranked players like Mongkol Sawangkaew and Lana Radivojevic indicate the challenges she faces.
