"oh…"

The whole audience exclaimed, and sighs of astonishment and embarrassment surged in the heat wave.

With Gao Wen backhanding the ball straight back to the bottom line, it ended the point and also the round. At the end of the stalemate and collision between you and me, Tsonga finally broke serve. And ushered in the lead in the second set, and then served to win the game.

"5:6".

Didn't think of it, didn't think of it at all.

Clearly, Gao Wen had fully grasped the initiative, and was not far from the finish line of victory, but an accident overturned the balance and completely reversed the situation.

However, this is competitive sports—

Before the end of the game, everything is possible, including accidents, accidents, and injuries. They are all part of the game, which no one wants to see but always exists objectively. into history.

During the interval, the medical staff entered the field.

Although Tsonga kept telling himself to stay focused, stay focused, stay focused, and absolutely not to be distracted at this time, his peripheral vision still drifted towards Gao Wen uncontrollably.

He can't control it either.

After all, he himself has just experienced an injury and is still recovering from his injury. He has a deep feeling for Gao Wen's condition.

Although Tsonga is very, very eager to win. As the defending champion, he hopes to continue to advance more than ever; The victory of disease picking and missing.

"Breathe."

"Exhale."

"Breathing..."

"Exhale..."

The medical staff is conducting basic examinations for Gao Wen, from breathing to turning to swinging rackets, through different movements to detect pain in the abdominal muscles.

In fact, when there was no hitting, no stretching, and no strenuous exercise, Kirk didn't feel any obvious pain, and it was more of a stretching feeling.

But immersed in the fierce confrontation, the hitting action is fully opened and fully extended, the stretching feeling will gradually become obvious, and finally evolve into severe pain.

After simple inspection and testing, medical personnel make a diagnosis.

"Slight strain."

"Whether the muscle fiber is torn or not needs to be filmed for in-depth understanding, but it is still impossible to determine whether it has reached the level of a first-degree strain."

In general, muscle strain injuries can be divided into three grades:

Level one is the lightest and level three is the heaviest.

But now, it is difficult for medical staff to make an accurate diagnosis on the spot without taking a film diagnosis.

Gao Wen hesitated.

He knew that the wisest and calmest choice was to retire now, go to filming, and receive treatment to avoid affecting the subsequent events.

He should think about the overall situation. After all, the US Open is the highlight.

But is it really that simple?

In the competitive arena, giving up and surrendering is actually the simplest thing. As long as you want to, you can give up at any time, throw the white flag at any time, and paddle and lie down at any time.

But the real essence of competitive sports is that fighting is also a challenge, fighting with opponents, fighting with oneself, and fighting with injuries, illnesses, setbacks, accidents and difficult battles.

Things have never been that simple.

In his last life, he failed.

In the face of injuries, he has struggled, worked hard, persisted, suffered, suffered, sad, and upset, but in the end, he still failed.

Facing an injury again, the first reaction in my mind was to shrink back or give up or surrender, but after realizing this, I couldn't help laughing.

It turned out that he also had demons.

I thought it wasn't there, I thought I had broken through the shackles, I thought I had a new look, but I didn't expect—

In fact, it has always been there.

but.

He didn't want to surrender, let alone give up.

To do it all over again is to go all out without regret or regret, the same story, but this time, he will write it in different colors.

"Gawain?"

The voice of the referee calling came.

"is everything okay?"

The interval between rounds should have arrived, and the referee needs to confirm whether Gao Wen needs to use a medical timeout.

— Take a deep breath, take another deep breath.

Gao Wen had regained his composure, gave the referee a look, and then asked the medical staff in front of him, "If I'm going to continue, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

The medical staff are very professional, "There is no problem in continuing the game."

"We need a bandage to immobilize the muscle so that the strain doesn't get worse."

"In addition, according to your own pain tolerance, I can provide painkillers to relieve the situation. If it gets worse, you must stop the game in time, and I will always wait on the sidelines."

Gao Wen nodded and gave an affirmative answer, "Okay, let's do it like this."

The medical staff turned to look at the referee and applied for a medical timeout.

Afterwards, the medical staff took Gao Wen to the medical room, preparing to bandage and fix the abdominal muscles.

There was some restlessness at the scene.

In the player's box, Sampras and Agassi looked grim—

This is just a Masters Tournament, Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun are not accompanying, only Gao Wen's coaching team, plus Tobias.

The player's box was a little empty, but at this moment, all of them had serious expressions on their faces and heavy hearts.

As former professional players, they are very aware of what injuries mean, but at the same time they also know that injuries are an inseparable part of competitive sports. What starts on day one doesn't end. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Until now, old guys like Sampras and Agassi still suffer from injuries after retiring. Compared with the well-known tennis elbow, the knee is actually the real worst.

Hard courts are very detrimental to the knees, and no one can be an exception.

From the perspective of commercial promotion, the more hard courts, the better, and the popularity of tennis in the world is getting faster and faster.

But from a long-term perspective, hard courts consume players very seriously and intensely. It is precisely because of this that professionals believe that the existence of grass and clay is irreplaceable.

If you are greedy for convenience and speed at the expense of the long-term interests of the players, it is to waste money.

Returning to the North American hard court season, the gratifying thing is that Kirk has returned to his best court; but at the same time, he also needs to worry about the consumption and wear of his body.

The one-month holiday after Wimbledon included such considerations.

But unexpectedly, the result was still hit by injuries.

For a moment, there was a wave of upset.

Sampras took a look at Agassi. Unlike him, Agassi struggled with injuries in the second half of his career. In the last year, he was almost unable to play due to injuries. He chose to retire after the 2006 US Open. It is an unavoidable choice.

To be precise, in the last game of Agassi's career, he almost retired due to injury, but he knew that it was the last farewell, so he persisted with the injury until the end, in such a way Way to draw an end to tennis career.

Thousands of words came to mind, but in the end it turned into a long sigh, and Sampras patted Agassi on the shoulder.

Agassi didn't turn his head, but straightened his waist again, and recovered his voice, "The real battle begins now."
