Meng Xu currently holds a career baseline win percentage of around 46% on hard surfaces, but her recent form has seen a decline, reflected by a series of losses leading into Wimbledon. She has not won a match since late May and is trending downward, with her current two-year trajectory indicating a struggle to find her rhythm on the court.
In her last five outings, Meng Xu has faced tough competition, losing all but one match, including a recent defeat to E. Jacquemot at WTA Eastbourne. This pattern points to a lack of confidence and a challenging mindset as she approaches her first-round match at Wimbledon. The pressure will be on her to turn things around against a seasoned opponent.
