Match Point

Chapter 1786: Heartbeat like a drum

The matchup of the top four is very good, very good, and deserves applause.

But compared with the top four matchups, what really deserves attention is the top eight matchups and the top sixteen matchups.

These small subdivisions are the core focus, and they are also the highlight of the second week of the Grand Slam. These two rounds are often used as a watershed to determine the highest peak attendance of the Grand Slam and the expected value of the subsequent semi-finals and finals. Everything, everything is maintained here.

Plop, plop, plop... His heart was beating like a drum, his blood was boiling, and under the gaze of countless people, Gao Wen drew out the top eight match list.

Ouhuang, it really is Ouhuang, once again showed Gao Wen's good luck, and couldn't help but wake up the magical journey when he was born as a dark horse last year. It seems that Gao Wen did have some magical power in Flushing. The matchup between the quarterfinals in front of them did bring some surprises.

Djokovic against Ferrer.

Murray faced Kei Nishikori.

Federer against Wawrinka.

Gawain faced Berdych.

—Wow, wow, wow, wow, there was a lot of shouts and applause at the same time, and the entire media center fell into a frenzy.

In fact, there are two focal points in the first eight alignments.

First, who is Wawrinka playing against.

Second, who is Gao Wen playing against?

Because of Nadal's continued slump, the world ranking has slipped to ninth, and he will fall into that small division, which is also the biggest highlight of the draw, just like this year's French Open, where Nadal fell into the quarter division of Gawain. It easily ignited the frenzy of topics, and finally lived up to expectations.

But before Nadal's name was drawn out, the positions of Gao Wen and Wawrinka were the absolute focus in the quarter-final matchup stage.

They have done their part to become the leaders of the Challenger League. Like Murray, they are two Grand Slam champions. Which of these three players can take the lead in breaking through and winning the third Grand Slam is undoubtedly a focus; Whether it can withstand the impact and continue to defend its rule is another focus.

result!

Gao Wen personally drew Wawrinka into the lower half, and formed a matchup with Federer, and one after another, the highlights began to appear crazily.

—Swiss Derby, don’t forget, at Roland Garros, Wawrinka eliminated Federer to advance to the semi-finals, and fought hard to beat Gawain in five sets to reach the final, reaching the championship in one go.

—If Gao Wen breaks into the semi-finals, will it be the French Open semi-finals rematch or Wimbledon semi-finals rematch? Any kind of matchup is worth looking forward to.

——Both Gao Wen and Wawrinka entered the lower half, which also means that Murray ushered in an opportunity in the upper half without the need for a direct competitor. Perhaps his biggest threshold is still Djokovic, who was in the Will Murray, who has made a breakthrough in Toronto, usher in a good opportunity for a full recovery?

— Ferrer, who returned from injury, was absent from Wimbledon and the North American series. Almost no one thought he would come to New York to participate in the competition, but he appeared; the same is true of Kei Nishikori, so the two returned from injury What can the players do? What role will they play?

——On the whole, the upper half is obviously weaker. Djokovic and Murray are undoubtedly the favorites; the second half is obviously stronger. Once they enter the top eight, everyone has a chance, very, very likely There may be a scuffle situation, is this Federer's best chance?

There are indeed too many possibilities, but any direction is worth looking forward to and worth paying attention to.

I have to say that this draw is not perfect, but it is meaningful and can be interpreted slowly. Different developments may make the match in front of you full of surprises.

Yujia took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Although Wawrinka was drawn to the bottom half, it was not a good thing, but at least he did not enter the 4\/4 area. For Gao Wen, this is a good counterpoint; What really needs to be nervous and worry about now is Nadal's position.

No one wants Nadal to fall into his own division.

Of course, for Gao Wen, the situation in the US Open this time is a bit special. Compared with the matchups in the top 16 and quarter finals, the draws in the first three rounds are more important. Gao Wen needs competition and confrontation, otherwise the upset will stop The first week is not impossible. The real key is still in the second half of the draw ceremony.

Even so, when the draw ceremony came to the matchup of the top 16, the uncontrollable excitement of the entire media center could be clearly felt.

The air, burning—

Then…

Wow.

There was an exclamation, there was an uproar, and in the face-to-face and jaw-dropping gaze collisions, they had to clap their hands and applaud. Cheers swarmed from all directions, and it seemed that the sound of blood rolling could be clearly heard.

Even Yujia was no exception, she stared round her eyes and turned to look at Zhan Jun and the others.

Zhan Jun smiled, "Gao Wen is lucky...hahahahaha."

Hu Litao was almost the same, watching the lottery carefully, and finally tilted his head and couldn't help laughing, "Well, how do we interpret this?"

After a while, I couldn't find an accurate adjective. Should I say good or bad?

But in the end, the laughter couldn't help gurgling in the chest cavity, and the heart that was hanging high and almost blocked the throat could finally return to the chest.

Ouhuang, still Ouhuang—

What's really interesting is that Gao Wen didn't simply draw an "easy draw" for himself so that people suspected that he was operating behind the scenes, but drew an interesting and infinitely possible draw for the entire men's singles matchup. The expectations of the event rolled up early.

This, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is the real power.

Even the haters can't help but laugh when they see this draft. They can shout that the draft of their favorite players is the most difficult, but they cannot deny that other players' drafts also have their own traps. For Bourdain, this sign is more worthy of interpretation.

It's often said that there is no absolutely perfect draw and no absolutely bad draw, after all, everything is relative, not absolute.

Even in the death zone, there may be many accidents, and the one who stands out in the end may not be the biggest favorite.

Similarly, even in the weakest division, it is not necessarily a good thing. The first half of the game was too easy to win so that the second half of the game could not keep up and lead to being out.

In addition, it is better to draw "encountering strong opponents in the first half and being easy in the second half" or "relatively easy in the first half and devils in the second half". Different people have different opinions. After all, everyone The adjustment and grasp of one's own state are all different, and cannot be generalized.

Everything is possible.

But there's no doubt that Gawain drew a very interesting draw, very, very interesting.

really!

As the last Grand Slam of the year, the increase in variables makes the event full of infinite development possibilities.

Zhan Jun's eyes and the corners of his mouth were full of smiles, "I think Gao Wen himself is looking forward to a new test and challenge. He is different from us. He should be very satisfied with this lottery."

Hu Litao pouted, "He should never have complained."

That open-mindedness and self-confidence, as part of Gao Wen's game temperament, has evolved into the reason why countless fans are crazy about it.
