Chinese tennis star Zheng Qinwen, who made history by winning the China Open in Beijing earlier this month and successfully returned to the world's top 30, has withdrawn from the Prudential Hong Kong Tennis Open 2026 due to injury.

Expressing her disappointment at being unable to make her HK debut this year, Zheng said: "I am very sorry to share that I will be unable to compete in the upcoming Prudential Hong Kong Tennis Open. After a long and intensive schedule over the past few weeks, I need to listen to the warning signs from my body and take the necessary precautions.

"I was really looking forward to competing in HK for the first time, having heard so many positive things about the tournament. I wish this year's event every success and hope to visit HK in 2027."

Opinion | HK retains its crown as world's freest economy: Open-market strengths endure and 'one country, two systems' dividend persists The Fraser Institute of Canada released its Economic Freedom of the World 2026 Annual Report on 6 October 2026. Hong Kong has once again been named the world's freest economy among 165 economies, with an overall score of 8.53. Since the Report was first published in 1996, Hong Kong has consistently ranked first—clear evidence that, whatever changes the external environment may bring, the core competitiveness of Hong Kong as a free economy continues to stand the test of time and of international assessment.

Opinion | 'Building Bridges'- How North Korea went from isolated pariah to strategic counterweight Since 2014, a "new" bridge has stood on the Yalu River between Dandong in China and Sinuiju in North Korea. This massive white spired bridge, built by Chinese engineering, was intended to deepen economic integration between the two Communist neighbours, having previously relied on the very small, Japanese Imperial-derived railway bridge known as the "Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge." The new bridge was thus to be revolutionary, yet for reasons entirely related to the North Korean side, it didn't open.

Opinion | Behind the double 'World's No. 1': How world-class hospitality is forging a new chapter for HK tourism Bar Leone in Central, Hong Kong, was crowned the world's best bar for the second consecutive year. Barely three weeks earlier, Rosewood Hong Kong likewise retained its No. 1 ranking, becoming the only hotel to successfully defend the title since the list was founded. Bars and hotels are two mirrors of the hospitality industry. That both "world's best" titles have fallen to Hong Kong in the same year is no coincidence—it is an objective affirmation by international professional juries of the city's service standards and business environment.
