"ah!"

Gao Wen jumped up high, cheering, shouting, screaming to the sky, and the turbulent surge in his chest was released without reservation.

victory!

The repeat of this year’s Australian Open final in Indian Wells, the ending remains the same—

Victory belongs to Gao Wen!

This also means that Gao Wen once again achieved two consecutive victories against the world's No. 1, and achieved a double play for the second time; and expanded the record of the match to four wins and one loss.

"Ahhh!"

A kind of pure joy and happiness is constantly gushing out, as if you can hear the sound of fireworks blooming above the eardrums.

Because of victory.

But not only because of the victory, but also because it was an arduous battle, and he fully mobilized all his state and potential. This kind of game is the reason why he likes tennis, games and competitions. He can feel the adrenaline. Boiling hot.

Also because this victory won him a ticket to face Federer or Raonic, he looks forward to the opportunity to challenge his limits again, and truly show all his abilities at this stage without reservation. Bravely face the bottleneck and look forward to a battle.

The whole audience is turbulent.

The end of the game, the final score, "6:3", "4:6", "6:4".

Gao Wen, advanced to the final.

Obviously, for Djokovic, the bitterness of this defeat is more than any other, even bitterer than the loss of Paris' missed match point.

In New York, it was unprepared, caught off guard, and Djokovic himself was mediocre.

In Paris, it was a fluctuating mentality, an accident, and it was obvious that Djokovic still didn't get his position right.

London, so they won.

These are not looking for excuses for his loss, but Djokovic's self-criticism. He has never given Gao Wen enough attention and respect.

Because Gao Wen's rise, rise, and popularity are really too fast, and he lacks enough time to find out and settle down, so his mentality is inevitably out of balance.

Djokovic has to admit that Gao Wen is outstanding, he needs to treat him as the world's top ten or even the world's top five, and correct his mentality.

In Melbourne, both sides had chances in that match. It was a matter of on-the-spot performance at the critical moment. Gao Wen did show the domineering and vigor of young people in the final stage, and completed the feat with an even better, calmer and tougher attitude. Qixin is not convinced but must be taken orally.

In other words, in the results of the previous four confrontations, Djokovic's other emotions and emotions prevailed compared to the bitterness.

However, when he came to Indian Wells, Djokovic believed that there should be no reason for the game. To lose is to lose.

Of course, after the Australian Open, Djokovic is also adjusting his state. From Dubai to Indian Wells, the feel and state still need to be further adjusted; however, Djokovic believes that this is not a reason, because the state fluctuates. The event itself is an integral part of the game.

He is ready, fully prepared from body to mind.

He has gone all out and implemented all tactics throughout the court.

There is no reason, no excuse, no evasion, it is purely that my play and performance have been suppressed, and I lost the game in the end.

Such a defeat, bitterness slowly spread on the tip of the tongue.

Looking at Gawain who jumped up and threw his fists to celebrate the victory across the court, Djokovic was very clear and deeply aware of one thing:

In the past, he has always played the role of challenger - strictly speaking, until now, he is still challenging Federer and Nadal's position.

Despite holding seven Grand Slam championship trophies, despite occupying the world's number one throne for a long time, despite being evenly matched against Federer and Nadal...

However, in the eyes of the fans, Federer and Nadal are still the two superstars who do their part, and they are still the two mountains hanging over Djokovic.

Djokovic needs to constantly challenge, constantly impact, and constantly subvert. He needs to constantly prove himself and strive to open up his own sky.

It's not fair, indeed, it's really not fair, but Djokovic doesn't think there's anything wrong with being a "challenger", neither shameful nor regretful.

In fact, on the contrary, this has always been the driving force for Djokovic to move forward and continue to break through. He has goals, desires, and of course, fighting spirit.

Over the years, there have been wave after wave of challengers in the men's tennis world, but they have never been able to truly shake the position of the Big Four. Instead, they have become the cornerstone of the era of the Big Four. This also makes Djokovic and Murray's eyes, Always in front, chasing Federer and Nadal.

until now.

Djokovic is deeply aware that the challenger's pursuit is approaching, and he can no longer single-mindedly pursue the footsteps of Federer and Nadal.

Literally.

Young, young!

Once upon a time, Djokovic also played the role of a "young challenger", full of vigor and arrogance, as if he could overthrow the world with just his blood, watching Federer and Nadal, aiming at the world's No. 1 , All the way to fight all the way and run wildly, completely forgetting myself.

In a blink of an eye, Djokovic suddenly realized that his identity as a "challenger" had been deprived, and the younger generation and younger generations had risen up, watching him, aiming at him, and launching a full-scale impact. Men's professional tennis is on the rise. Open a new page and usher in a different atmosphere.

There are wolves in front and tigers in back.

Now, as part of the "Big Four", Djokovic has become the target of the new generation of challengers~lightnovelpub.net~ mentality and position need to be adjusted.

The torrent of the times is rushing forward, and the rumbling sound has surrounded the ears.

The sense of reality, clearer than ever, burned in the stomach.

then-

Shaking hands after the game, Djokovic still showed his demeanor and sincerely congratulated Gao Wen on his victory.

After the end, Djokovic quickly packed his luggage without any stop, and hurriedly left the court sadly, he needed a little time.

A little time to calm down, a little time to digest, a little time to think.

It can be seen from the back of Djokovic that the significance of this game is comparable to that of Melbourne, and even slightly better.

Things do need to change.

The same is true for the media.

Although the media's feelings are slightly different from Djokovic's, the significance of this game once again pushes the chapter of the new season one step further:

For one thing, Gao Wen double-killed Djokovic for the second time and achieved quadruple kills. This feat was an unprecedented first for the younger generation, and his strong performance easily stood out among the younger generation.

Secondly, with Gao Wen breaking into the Indian Wells final, this also means that another semi-final—

What if Raonic beats Federer?

This will be the first time the "post-90s" meet in the final of the Masters, opening a new chapter. The youth storm is no longer a literal expectation, but the main theme of the 2015 season that cannot be ignored.

What if Federer beats Raonic?

There is no need to repeat the topic of "Big Four vs. Challengers". More importantly, after Dubai, Gao Wen will once again challenge the Swiss King. No one wants to miss it.
