In the second half, the quarter-finals, "Gaowen VS Tsonga", no one should miss, and no one wants to miss.

For one thing, this is a rematch of the Roland Garros round of 16.

Two full months have passed, but people are still excited when they mention the classic five-set clash between Gawain and Tsonga at Roland Garros.

Second, Tsonga is the defending champion.

In this event last year—although it was in different cities and different venues, Tsonga’s feat of beating three giants to the championship in a row is still talked about by people today. An omen, the Challenger Alliance is fully in place.

For Tsonga, he is about to usher in a chance for revenge, and it is not on clay, but on the hard court that he is best at and can best use his talent.

For Gao Wen, he will face the first severe test of returning to the game after a month, and it is likely to be a weather vane for this year's US Open.

Of course, there are variables in things, and it is not that simple.

No one should forget that Tsonga chose to come back from injury on the eve of Roland Garros. He has been recovering and adjusting. After the loss to Gawain stopped, he entered the rest period again. He did not act too hastily, but gradually, for two full months. Participated in two competitions during the time period.

One is Wimbledon, lost to Karlovic in the third round, and stopped in the top 32.

One is the Davis Cup, which was lost to Murray, and France finally lost to England.

And then... there is no more.

In other words, after losing to Gao Wen, Tsonga played a total of four games, and his world ranking also dropped out of the top 20 all the way, away from everyone's attention.

In such a state, Tsonga arrived in Toronto in a low-key manner, and he also reserved his attitude towards the prospect of defending the title, and more hoped that he would move forward step by step.

Similarly, Gao Wen also stayed away from the game for a month. He was raw. He faced neither Giron nor Müller. , a brand new game for both players.

Pre-match predictions...50-50.

It's not that I look down on Gao Wen, but because Tsonga has been very convincing since he came to Toronto—

He defeated Coric in the first round, Agut in the second round and Tomic in the third round.

The three players have all reached the top 40 in the world rankings; at the same time, all three players are also on the rise, showing good condition.

Although Tsonga's victory was a little thrilling, his feel and state are improving step by step, and his explosive power at critical moments should not be underestimated.

Between one plus and one minus, the suspense of victory and defeat is also difficult to predict.

After all, once Tsonga goes crazy, no one can suppress it, including the Big Four.

Under the collision of various reasons, this quarterfinal match has undoubtedly become one of the most worth watching and most noteworthy matches in this year's Rogers Cup.

In fact, the two players, Gao Wen and Tsonga, did not live up to expectations. They started a strong collision from the first point of the first round of the game—

The bayonet saw red.

In the first point, the two players collided with real swords and sparks. After a total of 18 shots, Gao Wen's forehand slash "inside-out" tore through Tsonga's defense and scored the winning point. Put a full stop.

The audience, thunderous applause!

True professionals can see that, compared with before the clay court season, Gao Wen developed the classic line of the forehand slash in addition to the backhand straight line, scoring winning points repeatedly and showing growth again.

As expected, this is indeed a collision worth the ticket price. No wonder it can become the first sold-out Rogers Cup game this year. It has lived up to the expectations of the audience, and the audience cheered—

Tsonga, with his violent forehand, can already see the 90% success at his peak. His unreasonable sudden force is like a heavyweight boxing champion, and his brutal and fierce scoring easily ignites the frenzy of the audience.

Gao Wen, the defensive counterattack is still amazing, and at the same time, the courage to break the deadlock and launch the attack with forehand and backhand also brings different surprises. From the layout to the game and then to the counterattack, he has dedicated performances again and again.

Data, the most intuitive.

Tsonga had nine winners and six unforced errors.

Gao Wen scored eight winning points and three unforced errors.

Violence! tough! Attack!

One side is punching hard, and the other side is flowing.

Different styles, but equally good-looking, interpreting two colors of tennis **** is really enjoyable.

and!

Mistakes are controlled within the effective range, winning points become dominant, and the offensive battles of you come and go, wave after wave, come to your face.

Absolutely live up to expectations!

finally-

Tsonga's violent forehand took the opportunity to hit a diagonal shot, fast and heavy, aimed at the dead corner, and followed the ball directly to the net after the impact.

On the opposite side of the court, Gao Wen, in an extremely passive state where his body had already left the doubles line and was about to lose his center of gravity, extended his forehand to the extreme to complete a whip-throwing hit. The return, low and flat, slid across the net.

Tsonga, who blocked the interception in front of the net, also lost his center of gravity. The two-handed backhand was forced to evolve into a one-handed backhand. He shot the interception, but lost his balance when his body was stretched to the extreme. After hitting **** the racket line, he tried his best to return the ball to the net.

Both players have stretched their bodies to the extreme, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has shown everything from body to will to skills without reservation.

This point fell into Gao Wen's pocket.

This was the third break point and inventory. With the only break in the first set, Gao Wen took the lead with a score of "6:4".

The audience is boiling!

It's not that Tsonga didn't perform well enough, but that the courage and courage shown by Gao Wen at the critical moment were really amazing, pushing the game to a new level. The two players stimulated each other's best state in the strong collision, The smoke filled the air, and the game took on a new look.

Beautiful, really beautiful!

In the second set, Gao Wen was still the first to break serve.

Relying on the advantage of being the first to serve, after breaking serve, Gao Wen has already opened up the score, "3:0".

However, Tsonga, who was in trouble, once again showed his ability.

First, he kept his serve and gained a firm foothold; then, with a straight forehand, his unreasonable attack completely made Gao Wen lose his temper, and broke Gao Wen's serve for the first time in the whole game by winning points. In the second set, the game quickly returned to the same starting line.

Just when it was thought Gawain was going to bag the victory in one go, Tsonga protested of his own.

From "3:0" to "3:3", and then to "4:4", the score fell into a stalemate again, the suspense of victory and defeat was completely tense, and no one could say anything until the last moment.

Ninth inning.

At "30:15", Gao Wen, who extended his upper body to save the ball while running wildly, returned the ball to the net with a backhand. This time, he did not have the forehand strength to resist Tsonga, but after hitting the ball, Gao Wen slowed down. He bent down, rubbed his abdominal muscles with his left hand, and finally stopped in place.
