After the draw was released, people obviously did not expect such a matchup in the 2/4 zone. Even if Wawrinka was expected, Gasquet was not expected.

As mentioned earlier, Gasquet and Nadal were childhood friends and were known as genius boys; after turning professional, Gasquet still performed well, ranking among the top ten in the world and becoming a representative of the golden generation of France. Compared with the expectations of childhood, it is inevitable that there will be some gaps.

This year at Wimbledon, after Nadal and Raonic were eliminated early one after another, Gasquet seized the opportunity to stand out and return to the quarterfinals of Wimbledon after 2007.

In Gasquet's career, the experience of the fourth round of the Grand Slam is very familiar. It has happened 16 times before and after, but the fourth round is a threshold.

As of Wimbledon this year, he has only crossed this threshold at Wimbledon in 2007 and the US Open in 2013. Not only did he advance to the quarter-finals, but he also advanced to the semi-finals. In the end, he regretted losing to Federer and Nadal respectively. Still writing the highlight moments of his career.

Here, Wawrinka is looking forward to refreshing his best Wimbledon record and continuing his upward momentum.

On the other hand, Gasquet hopes to advance to the semi-finals of the Grand Slam for the third time in his career, and to relive his old dream again at the All England Club after eight years.

In this game, both players have a chance.

Moreover, the strong collision of the "Challenger League" has completely continued the main theme since the opening of this year's season. Outside of the giant duel, the quality of the game has been improved in an all-round way. A grade is indeed a good thing.

The youth storm duel between Gawain and Dimitrov ignited social media frenzy before, and now it is the turn of the backbone of the professional tennis world to prove with practical actions that the "Challenger League" is not just a gimmick, it is indeed a gimmick. There are more players who are ushering in breakthroughs.

Who knows, maybe this game can still bring surprises?

Area 3/4, "Murray VS Gawain".

Needless to say!

After coming out of the lottery, this is the matchup that deserves the most attention. The last two players have indeed shown excellent competitive status and will meet in the quarterfinals.

Although professionals and fans generally believe that Murray should be able to win, how much trouble Gawain can cause, what role will injuries play, what will the trend of the game show, and whether Gawain can seize the flaws to make waves, everything remains the same. worthy of attention.

Among the four quarter-finals, this one is definitely the focus of attention, a good show on stage!

No need for rendering, the heat of the discussion skyrocketed.

Zone 4/4, "Federer vs Simon".

A little unexpected, but not shocking.

Federer made a good signing and went smoothly all the way, once again showing his demeanor as the king of the grass—

Since the first round at Halle, Federer has not been broken in the grass court season. He has kept 107 serve games in a row, showing an incredible competitive state, which is not inferior to any other competitor. He pointed his sword at Wimbledon The eighteenth Grand Slam championship trophy.

Since 1991, the ATP has officially introduced the relevant statistics of serve data. Karlovic has kept 129 consecutive serve games, ranking first in the consecutive serve data; Isner has kept 119 consecutive serve games, followed by him After; now, Federer has come to the third position in history.

Federer, indeed, was born on grass.

Next, it's fun.

On that side, some people are optimistic that Murray will be crowned for the second time at home with the advantage of the host, while others are optimistic that Djokovic will regain his strength and break the decline of two consecutive Grand Slam runner-ups to hit the championship.

In this room, Federer kept a low profile under the aura of the favorite to win the championship, step by step, slowly revealing his glory, showing his desire and confidence in the championship. There is no doubt that this year's grass court season is so hot that the serving state is so hot that the Swiss king is crowned champion. most important weapon.

However, Simon’s stand-out was not an unpopular one. The straight set defeat of Berdych took less than two hours and showed top-level competitive status. The top ten ability made Berdych lose his temper.

Grinding, winding, sticky, this is Simon.

Perhaps, for the fans, Simon's tennis is not attractive, and he may never be able to reach the top of the Grand Slam; but any player on any kind of venue should not take it lightly when facing Simon. To be precise, no one wants to inspire Simon. The best form of defensive counterattack.

In the next game, Simon will continue to entangle Federer. For the king of grass, this is also a duel that requires vigilance.

1/4 area, Mesozoic duel.

District 2/4, single-handed decision.

Area 3/4, focus duel.

4/4 area, conflicting confrontation.

It is very, very regrettable that, unlike last year when the new generation fully emerged, there is only one young player, Gao Wen, in the quarter-finals this year. You can clearly feel that the young generation has hit a wall after the rapid rise, and Qi Qi has fallen into a short-term slump; The Alliance of Defenders has risen in an all-round way.

Nevertheless, all four matchups are highlights, including the 1/4 area where the least suspense is lacking, and because Djokovic has played for three consecutive days, adding some uncertainty. The best-looking and most exciting top-eight lineup, the fans of UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com burst into excitement.

However!

The real focus after the game was Berdych.

Not Gawain, not the Big Three, not the rejuvenated Cilic or the breakthrough Gasquet, but the losing Berdych.

A reporter asks an idiotic question, "After this game, how do you feel, are you confident about the next game?"

This is the first question of the press conference.

So much so that Berdych, who had just lost the game, looked confused, but Berdych, who was always polite, still suppressed his emotions and asked politely, "I'm sorry, can you say it again?"

As a result, the blind reporter actually repeated it again and asked Berdych to look forward to the next game.

The good-tempered Berdych changed his expression on the spot.

In the end, the host stepped in and ended it all before the situation got out of hand.

But Berdych still finds it unbelievable. He lost the game with a score of "0:3", and he didn't find his form in the whole game. Degree.

"Did he do it on purpose?"

Berdych said.

After the press conference, the Wimbledon organizing committee also apologized to Berdych for not being able to control the situation at the scene in time.

Although the media has always liked to provoke and make trouble, such behavior really lacks respect. Later, many reporters also defended Berdych.

Unexpected but not surprising, the media still got into trouble before the quarter-finals; however, the off-court topics failed to steal the light of Wimbledon after all.

The top eight players are in their positions, and they are about to start—

but!

How will the field be arranged and who will be in center court?
