Yuan Meng

Yuan Meng (born 9 May 1986) () is a former Chinese professional tennis player. Yuan has won four singles titles and one doubles title on tournaments of the ITF Circuit. Career 2001–2004 Yuan began competing on the ITF Circuit at age 15 in May 2001. However, that year she lost in the first round of qualifying in all four events she entered, and ended the year still unranked. In 2002, she won seven matches in qualifying and one in a main draw, and finished the year ranked 984th. The following year, she won 11 matches in qualifying and five in main draws, and after reaching the final qualifying round for a $50k event at Shenzhen she finished the year world-ranked nearly 300 places higher, at 689th. In March 2004, she reached the final of a $10k grass-court event at Yarrawonga, Australia, only to default to her last opponent. In early June, shortly after her eighteenth birthday, she reached the semifinal of a $25,000 event at Wulanhaote, before losing to more experienced countrywoman Liu Nannan. In December, she reached her first $25k tournament final at Port Pirie, before losing a tight three-set championship decider to a little-known Australian. Overall, she had won thirty-two matches in the year, lifting her world ranking to 387, up another 300 places year-on-year.
