Chapter 1679

In this box, Federer defeated Simon in straight sets, "6:3", "7:5", "6:2", and advanced to the semi-finals without bloodshed.

On that side, Djokovic beat Cilic steadily and steadily, "6:4", "6:4", "6:4", without any waves.

One after the other, the two games ended within fifteen minutes of each other, marking the end of Wimbledon's ninth match day, which was really disappointing.

After experiencing the ups and downs of the five-set battles of "Murray VS Gawain" and "Wawrinka VS Gasquet", the other two quarter-finals matchups coincided with each other, and the one-sided match was turbulent throughout Don't be surprised, I completely failed the fans' ardent expectations for the Challenger League to hit the giants.

If it is said that Court No. 1 at least dedicated Simon to the highlight moment of ending Federer's consecutive serve retention, then the Central Court is drowsy. The match between Djokovic and Cilic is completely watered, not only the three sets are exactly the same , and the content of the game is also lackluster—

The five best goals in a single game may not be picked.

For neutral fans, disappointment.

However, from another perspective, the two giants once again defended their glory with a strong and sturdy performance:

At Wimbledon, their strong heritage is still unshakable. After Flushing’s upset and subversion, Melbourne Park and Roland Garros’ bayonets became popular, and they came to the All England Club, the giants are still unattainable absolute rulers , the golden age is still that golden age.

and!

The top four, everyone in their positions.

The pattern of "Big Four VS Challenger Alliance" has once again taken shape.

At this time, looking back at the semi-finals of the past three Grand Slams, Wimbledon's matchup will be more representative.

In the US Open, "Djokovic VS Gawain" and "Federer VS Cilic", Gawain and Cilic won, officially kicking off the challenger league.

Australian Open, "Djokovic VS Wawrinka", "Murray VS Gawain", Djokovic and Gawain advanced, the confrontation between giants and challengers took shape.

The French Open, "Djokovic VS Murray", "Gauvin VS Wawrinka", this is the only time when giants and giants, challengers and challengers confront each other and then start Huashan debate on the top of the Forbidden City, and finally Djokovic and Wawrinka join forces, a full-scale confrontation between giants and challengers.

Looking back carefully, you can clearly see the development context step by step, and finally, come to Wimbledon.

The matchup between the top four is still "Big Four VS Challengers". Behind the emergence of Gao Wen, from Cilic to Wawrinka to Gasquet, the vanguard of the Challenger League has been changing, but the one thing remains unchanged The most important thing is the full-scale rise of the Challenger Alliance, so what will be the result this time?

Gearing up, eager to try—

The Wimbledon organizing committee officially announced the schedule ahead of the start of the two women's singles semi-finals on Thursday.

Friday, Center Court.

The first game, Djokovic VS Gasquet.

In the second game, Federer VS Gao Wen.

With such an arrangement, there is no suspense and no controversy. Even before the event organizing committee announced it, social networks have generally guessed it.

Gasquet can be called the biggest dark horse in Wimbledon this year. In the first half of the season, he was on and off due to back injuries. The net is also out of the game early in the third round, and the French Open has only recovered slightly.

Looking at it now, the performance of Roland Garros re-entering the fourth round should be the first signal.

After the Wimbledon draw was released, Gasquet fell into the 2/4 zone with strong players, and it was still a small 4/8 zone full of thorns. Almost no one noticed Gasquet's existence, but with Na Dahl stopped in the second round and Raonic stopped in the third round, and he became the biggest beneficiary.

Of course, if someone doubts that Gasquet's semi-finals were "picked up", then the performance of defeating Kyrgios strongly and eliminating Wawrinka in five fierce battles is the best proof. No one should underestimate Gasquet's impact. Force, perhaps, his All England Club miracle journey will continue.

Next, Gasquet will face title favorite Djokovic.

The top seed had a smooth road to advancement, but unexpectedly fell into a hard fight when facing Anderson in the fourth round, falling behind by two sets and chasing back.

As players of the same era, Djokovic and Gasquet are very familiar with each other. They have met twelve times in their careers. Gasquet only won the year-end finals in 2007, then called the Masters Cup. Once, and then suffered a long nine-game losing streak after that.

From all aspects, Djokovic is the more optimistic side, and even from the pre-match odds, the King of Serbia is overwhelmingly ahead.

By the way, at Roland Garros a month ago, Gasquet lost to Djokovic after advancing to the fourth round. At that time, the score was very different, "6:1", "6:2", "6:3", even Gasquet laughed at himself in the post-match interview after qualifying for the semi-finals at Wimbledon.

"I hope I can play better on Friday than I did in Paris and get some more innings."

It is conceivable that this game is scheduled to appear in the front, and there is almost no suspense.

All eyes are focused on another collision of the top four—

"Federer VS Gawain".

At this point, needless to say, the meaning and weight of this game has reached unprecedented heights.

If it is said that in the match between Djokovic and Gasquet, everyone is on the side of the world number one, then this match is full of suspense.

So far, Gao Wen and Federer have met twice in their careers, and each side has won one game, but as Gao Wen said, these data have no reference value.

First, there are too few meetings; second, those games are not on grass; third, those games are not Grand Slams.

The point is that Gao Wen's career grand slam encountered the Big Four and has maintained a complete victory so far.

And Federer is the undoubted king at Wimbledon. His career is all closely related to the All England Club. He forged a dynasty here, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com He is the king of the grassland.

This year at Wimbledon, both players have some intentions to drive low and go high.

Although Federer is the favorite to win the championship, the odds are behind Murray and Djokovic, and were even close to Wawrinka at one point; however, in a low-key manner, Federer showed top-level serve touch, and the mercury-laden attack was really pleasing to the eye. The back garden played wave after wave of climax, proving once again with unparalleled performance——

Never ignore Federer on the grass.

Gao Wen didn't need much explanation. He arrived at the All England Club with a record of one win and one loss. He almost lost in the first round against Istomin. Later, he faced Dimitrov and Murray and continued to improve his form. , showing top performance, saving the match point and defeating Murray is the best game this year.

After saving the match point in the two games before and after, Gao Wen broke into the semi-finals like a dog and made history.

so.

Federer? Or Gao Wen?

Gao Wen? Or Federer?

No one can predict in advance, the only thing to do is to wait and see.
