Chapter 1161: ambition

Chapter 1162 Ambitious

I'm coming!

The contention of a hundred schools of thought that has been eagerly awaited since the 2014 Australian Open is finally here!

The "Big Four VS Challengers" drama, as the season progresses, is becoming more and more exciting and beautiful, and the ups and downs of the climax have already begun.

The first to appear was the battle for No. 2 in the world between Gao Wen and Federer. Obviously, Gao Wen had seized the opportunity.

Immediately afterwards, there will be a battle for No. 1 in the world between Gao Wen and Djokovic, and the attention of tennis fans all over the world will be gathered.

Maybe, the clay court season can happen; maybe, it needs to continue until the North American summer hard court season, but no matter what, the window has indeed appeared.

The big show officially debuted.

It's no wonder that the media is so excited, one or two are shouting hoarsely, from the paper media to the official website to the social network, sweeping the screen.

No one can be an exception.

nobody!

If the world ranking is still not intuitive enough, and the conversion and accumulation of points is more complicated than imagined, everything about the clay court season is unknown.

Then, the championship points are much more intuitive and clear at a glance—

First, Gao Wen.

Second, Djokovic.

Third, Murray.

Fourth, Berdych.

Fifth, Ferrer.

Sixth, Wawrinka.

Seventh, Federer.

Eighth, Kei Nishikori.

Ninth, Raonic.

Tenth, Nadal.

In this list, that is, the points since January 1, 2015, Gao Wen has an obvious advantage—

Gao Wen's points are 4470, Djokovic's points are 2505, an advantage of nearly 2,000 points, intuitively showing Gao Wen's strength in the first quarter.

Moreover, Djokovic's performance is not bad, the Australian Open final, the Indian Wells semi-finals, and the Miami final, but he is still so far behind.

The most important thing is that in these three important events, Djokovic all lost to the same opponent, which is enough to explain many, many problems.

So, number two in the world? World number one?

It can be seen from the championship standings that Gao Wen has indeed gained the upper hand, and the "Big Four Era" is facing the biggest crisis in ten years.

Not to mention the news media, even MacDonald felt a surge of emotion when he saw these two rankings:

One step, another step.

Gao Wen is indeed gradually approaching the world's number one throne, can the 2015 season be more exciting?

Next, the key question is, can Gao Wen continue his previous strong performance on clay and grass after leaving the hard court he is best at?

Don't forget, from August last year until now, all games have been played on hard courts. For eight months, all games have been played on hard courts. This is also an important factor for Gao Wen's success. It's the offseason, and the tennis world switches to a different channel.

Is this a variable?

"Wow... If the next few masters perform well, Gao Wen does have a chance at the French Open."

"What do you think of Gaowen Red Clay's performance?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. Gao Wen's style of play is adaptable to both fast and slow courts. Just look at his performances in Melbourne and Indian Wells."

"But Gao Wen has been training on hard courts since he was a child. There are too many variables on clay courts. If we talk about grass courts, I think the chances may be greater."

"Mike, what do you think? Gao Wen probably never played clay court in college or high school, right?"

Along with the topic, the bustling sights all gathered towards MacDonald again.

Macdonald was still full of emotion, sincerely happy for his friend, his attention was pulled back a little, and then he showed a smile.

"Yes, he has never played clay before. Switching venues should be a challenge."

"But you should also know that when the level reaches a certain level, the ability to adapt to different venues will also improve, and the lower limit is there."

"Also, Gao Wen is a player who relies on his head to play. After switching venues, I think he will soon be able to find a different way of playing."

Everyone nodded their heads—

If it was other young players, they might have hesitated a little, but if it was Gao Wen, the situation was different. It seemed that everything was possible, and any problem could be solved in front of Gao Wen.

A pure trust.

Macdonald's blood was also bubbling, and ambition was burning in his chest.

"Obviously, Gao Wen needs to face a difficult battle in the future. The challenges of the clay court season and the grass court season should be unprecedented."

"Similarly, we also need to face a difficult battle next. This season, the Trojans are in better condition than us, but this does not mean that they will be able to win, and it does not mean that we will give up. At any time, in the face of We're not going to give up against the Trojans."

"I'm ready to train, how about, who else joins me?"

Simple and unpretentious words, without impassioned blood, and without the inspiration of rhetoric, but in the plain and sincere words, I can feel the energy burning deep in the soul.

"I!"

"And I!"

"You guys, just talk but don't practice, look, I've already started to act."

"You're sneaking away, okay?"

"Come, come, I will compete with you."

One by two, all jumped up one after another, raised their heads, puffed up their chests, and devoted themselves to training with vigor, even without the captain's greeting.

The light footsteps, cheerful voice, and positive figure, bathed in the breeze, ignited the fighting spirit, sweated under the sun, and showed youth.

Quietly, the shadow of the two-game losing streak and the pressure of the three-game losing streak are dissipating with the wind, and they regain their strength and find their own way of fighting.

McDonald didn't say much, and silently joined the warm-up ranks, preparing for a whole new day of training.

The training ground quickly restored order.

When Grant appeared on the court, he could feel the team's obviously different aura at a glance. The high spirits and positivity permeated were as dazzling as sunshine, which made him stare blankly, and couldn't believe his eyes:

How could such earth-shaking changes happen in just one day?

The day before yesterday~lightnovelpub.net~ They were still having a headache about how to motivate the low morale of the Bruins team. Even the pressure of the derby in the same city no longer became the driving force for the battle. Instead, it evolved into the shadow of a potential three-game losing streak hanging over their heads. People can't breathe.

Today, the players have a new look, completely devoid of any frustration and distress, as if they had already defeated the Trojans.

"Coach! Good morning!"

"Good morning!"

The players jogged past Grant one by one, greeting each other vigorously, but before waiting for a response, they swept past with a whimper.

Grant stood there in a daze:

So, what happened yesterday?

When Martin arrived at the training ground, he saw the scene in front of him, and then looked at Grant's puzzled face, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Martin patted Grant on the shoulder, and said meaningfully, "There is still one player in our team, don't underestimate his energy."

Grant:? ? ? who?
