Chapter 1714: summer vacation

Latest website: From the performance level, from the system level, Gao Wen's clay court season and grass court season are indeed fruitful, which is worth celebrating.

But in Gao Wen's view, compared with these numbers, the real gains are those invisible and intangible things, a kind of experience, a kind of experience and a kind of adventure—

Open a whole new door!

This was something he had never experienced in his previous life. Different scenery in the tennis world has different styles.

Clay tennis and lawn tennis are still tennis, but they are not the tennis that Gao Wen knows. The different application and different presentation of technical characteristics in different venues are indeed strange and fresh.

From spin to bounce to power, it not only shows the different characteristics of tennis itself, but also shows the different styles of players' skills, which is very interesting.

Maybe, tennis is about speed and power, but it would be a big mistake to think that tennis is all about speed and power, just like Formula 1.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Formula 1 is pure speed and passion; only a real in-depth understanding can know that racing is also related to control, judgment, calculation, timing and so on. Apart from absolute speed, there is another mystery in this race. But the magnificent world is not that simple.

Tennis, too.

Of course, players can rote what they are good at on clay and grass, and it can still work sometimes; but if this is the case, tennis will lose a lot of fun, and it will never open another door to spy on. to a whole new world.

At least, Gao Wen thought so.

Although the clay court and grass court seasons are over, Gao Wen's understanding and digestion have just begun, and he still needs a period of time to chew.

After comprehensive consideration from different aspects, Tobias and Sampras reached a consensus—

Throughout July, there is no other schedule for the event, and they need a vacation.

correct!

A small part of this is also due to the fact that, as in March, the ITF and ATP have come to an agreement to take advantage of the brief gap between the big and big events to cram the Davis Cup into July.

From July 17th to 19th, the second round of the Asia-Oceania region is about to start, and Huaxia will go to the away game to challenge the second seed India.

The winner of this game will enter the world group play-offs and compete for the qualification to advance to the world group next year.

If China can beat India, this will be their second time since 1990 to enter the world group play-offs.

Undoubtedly, Gao Wen was the center of attention.

At that time, Gao Wen will play as the number one singles.

However, the Davis Cup event is only a weekend, with at least one singles game and at most two games. The intensity of the entire game is very limited, so there is no need to worry too much; In the season, it is very important to adjust the schedule and combine work and rest.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Tobias and Sampras hit it off. After Wimbledon ended, they announced a short vacation.

Back and forth, in fact, is only three weeks, but it is extremely precious in the compact and comprehensive tennis schedule calendar.

It just so happened that Gao Wen really needed this kind of time to settle down and digest the experience of the past three months.

This time, Gao Wen's trip to Wimbledon came to an end, he left London for the first time, and returned to New York across the Atlantic—

Before the holiday officially begins, he needs to shoot the next season of Nike commercials and posters, as well as three magazine interviews and two magazine cover shoots.

Despite losing the Wimbledon semifinals, Gao Wen's commercial value has been rising off the court. Nike revises its business plan and launches a comprehensive layout.

On that side, the Wimbledon event also reached its final climax. The singles and doubles finals were fully launched, and the audience looked forward to witnessing the birth of history again.

Serena Williams ushered in the impact of young rookie Muguruza.

The two players have met three times in their careers, all of which took place in the Grand Slam. Although Serena Williams led with two wins and one loss, Muguruza's surprise victory over Serena Williams in the second round of the French Open last year was a masterpiece; At the Australian Open earlier this year, Serena Williams also narrowly won in three sets.

In this rematch, Serena Williams has not adjusted to the best serve this year, which may become a breakthrough for Muguruza to subvert the game.

"6:4", "6:4".

At the end of the game, Serena Williams missed two consecutive serve wins, but in the end she still defeated her opponent strongly in straight sets.

Behind the ball, still behind the ball.

After the Big Four defended their glory in men's singles, Serena William once again proved that the "Serena Era" in women's singles is not over yet.

History has changed slightly, but not completely.

In the last life, Djokovic defeated Federer in four sets, won his ninth Grand Slam title, and fully started his first peak period.

Everyone said that Federer had returned to the top, but in front of Djokovic, Federer was passive throughout the game. The last impression left on people was the second set. The next set; however, after all, it still failed to create more threats.

In this life, the five-set match against Gawain in the semi-finals, on the one hand, did consume Federer's physical energy, and Djokovic invisibly widened the gap; but on the other hand, it inspired Federer's ambition, self-confidence and state. Take it to a whole new level and the game is different.

"6:7(6, "7:6(10, "6:4", "4:6".

In the end, the game entered the final set.

However, it could be clearly felt in the final set that Federer's physical fitness continued to be weak, while Djokovic became more courageous and gradually took the initiative.

"3:6", Federer in the front, Djokovic in the back.

The championship, after all, belongs to Djokovic, successfully defending—
