A week after Melbourne Summer Set, Zheng qualified for her first Grand Slam event,[8][9] at the Australian Open where she defeated Aliaksandra Sasnovich in the first round.[10] In the second, she lost to fifth seed Maria Sakkari, in straight sets.[11] As a result, she reached the top 100 at world No. 80, on 31 January 2022.
At the French Open, she defeated Maryna Zanevska on her debut at this major.[12] Next she defeated former French Open champion and 19th seed, Simona Halep, her first top-20 win, to move to the third round of a major for the first time in her career.[13] She moved into the fourth round after Alizé Cornet's retirement. On 30 May 2022, she lost to top seed and world No. 1 Iga Świątek of Poland in the fourth round, referring to menstrual cramps as a contributing factor. Zheng was still happy about her performance and glad that she was able to play against the world's number one.[14] As a result, she moved to a new career-high of No. 54, on 6 June 2022, and reached the top 50 at world No. 46 a week later when she won her first WTA 125 title at the Open de Valencia defeating compatriot Wang Xiyu.

At the US Open, Zheng defeated Jeļena Ostapenko in the first round and Anastasia Potapova in the second. She was beaten in the third round by Jule Niemeier, in straight sets.
At the 2022 Toray Pan Pacific Open in Japan, she became the first Chinese teenager to ever reach a WTA final where she lost to Liudmila Samsonova. Her win over top seed Paula Badosa in the second round was her first completed Top-10 win and second overall (after Jabeur in Toronto). She also became the second teenager to make a WTA 500-level or higher final in the season after Coco Gauff. As a result she reached the top 30 at world No. 28 on 26 September 2022, becoming the first Chinese teenager to do so.[16]
