Her coach compares her to Rafael Nadal, and China’s Wang Qiang will need to conjure up a performance worthy of the Spanish star when she tackles 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams in Tuesday’s US Open quarter-finals.

“I think the key in that match is she mustn’t try to beat Serena Williams and what she achieved. If she tries to beat history and what Serena achieved before in Arthur Ashe Stadium, she has no chance,” Drouet said.“Her only solution is to beat the girl of now, what she is now. If we think of what Serena is now, she has a chance.

Drouet implored Wang not to submit to mind games with a player seeking her 24th major title to match Margaret Court’s all-time record. Drouet — a former Davis Cup player for Monaco who lists 2013 Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Peng among his former pupils — only came on board as Wang’s coach this summer.

“I remember when she started with Peter, God bless him. I was always impressed with the work. She had the discipline and the respect she gave to the coach,” Drouet recalled of his decision to collaborate with Wang.
