"Of course. Nobody thinks they're arrogant, and nobody wants to sound arrogant."

"But every day on the tennis pro tour you hear that, 'I could have won that match', yes, but you didn't."

Unexpectedly, when the reporter asked Wawrinka his opinion at the press conference, the player did not hesitate to side with Gawain; he also showed his own humor and added with a deadpan face One sentence.

"I don't mean to be arrogant, but last year in Flushing, I thought I deserved to win it. Oh yeah, and Wimbledon this year."

A burst of laughter—

The only exception is Wawrinka, who even showed a "why do you think this is funny" expression, giving full play to the talent of the sneer maker.

"Churic VS Nadal", "Zverev Jr. VS Gao Wen", the two groups of matchups are young rookies launching shocks and challenges. The media's joy and excitement are completely predictable. The pre-match news of the entire US Open Bustling discussions can be seen at the press conference as well as on social networking platforms.

But the point is that no one should forget, and no one will forget, that the core of the youth storm sweeping the world now is Gao Wen, and even Gao Wen did not arrogantly think that he had overturned the rule of the Big Four. What right does little Zverev have to be arrogant?

——This is another drawback of the Internet age. Those who have been touted by countless rainbow farts to the point where they can't find the north, don't know the importance at all.

Before the event officially kicked off, the turbulent heat wave could already be deeply felt.

Then, another thing happened.

On Sunday, the day before the US Open officially kicked off, reporters on social networks broke the news that Sharapova will withdraw from the US Open due to injuries.

hum. buzz buzz.

There was a lot of discussion.

In fact, after Wimbledon ended, Sharapova was exempted from the game, not on vacation, but because of a leg injury. For this reason, she missed the entire North American summer hard-court season and did not warm up for the airborne Flushing. It is precisely because of this that she Halep's world ranking has been surpassed and dropped to third place.

After the draw came out, Sharapova and Serena Williams were once again in the same half. Fighting in this year's competition sparked heated discussions in an instant.

When the U.S. Open Tournament Director gave an official confirmation in an interview, Dimitrov and Gao Wen were practicing and taking a break to drink water. Sampras looked at Dimitrov with concern. With so many concerns, he said whatever came to his mind, and asked frankly.

"Grigor, are you all right? Have you discussed Maria?"

Dimitrov paused for a moment while drinking water, and then noticed Gawain's face full of question marks. He obviously didn't understand what happened. Instead, he smiled, "Has the news come out yet?"

Gao Wen, "Maria is pregnant?"

"Pfft..." Dimitrov spit out a mouthful of water.

The slightly tense atmosphere instantly became relaxed and cheerful.

Dimitrov looked at Gao Wen helplessly, "Maria had to withdraw from this year's US Open due to her leg injury."

Gao Wen was slightly taken aback, showing a little regretful melancholy.

Dimitrov understands that Gawain, like Sharapova, has experienced injuries. Even if he is standing on the court in Flushing, he is still not 100% sure whether he will be able to participate and what performance he will be able to perform. An uncertainty, like an ice cube falling into the stomach.

Heavy, cold, gurgling and rolling.

"Maria has been hesitating and thinking about it all the time." Dimitrov added, "When she came to New York, she just wanted to give herself a chance to try and see how her training was going. Until I came out in the morning, she also Still haven't made up her mind and her team is waiting for a decision."

No wonder.

Sampras sighed softly, no wonder Sharapova did not hold a press conference, but was exposed by reporters because Sharapova was still hesitating and struggling, and she was still unwilling until the last moment. The desire to win and the will to fight are always against the body.

Sampras turned his head to look at Agassi, with a hint of worry in his eyes—

They were still worried about Gao Wen.

In terms of injuries, Gao Wen's strain has healed, and after passing the doctor's examination and permission, he can play completely, and there is no need to wrap muscle tape for protection.

But injuries are such a thing, just like porcelain with cracks, even if it is perfectly repaired, it is not the same as it was when it first came out of the kiln.

On the one hand, it is psychological scruples, and on the other hand, it is the change of the body itself.

After the muscle strain is healed, the skin and muscles will be slightly rolled inward, so when you do the movement again, you can naturally feel the stretching feeling. This stretching feeling is purely a normal reaction after the muscle tissue changes, but there will often be some The illusion of another muscle strain.

This physical to spiritual change is also a test.

Although this is the case every year at the US Open, injuries become the main theme, but this year's feeling is particularly obvious. Sharapova's retirement due to injury is undoubtedly a heavy blow.

It may affect Dimitrov, and it may also affect Gao Wen, bringing shocks in different ways.

Dimitrov let out a long breath, UU reading www. uukanshu.com looked at Gao Wen who was lost in thought, and showed a smile.

"But Maria isn't leaving New York."

Everyone was stunned.

They are all professional players, and they are very aware of the feeling. They couldn’t play due to injuries, and as a result, they could only watch their opponents speeding across the field. That feeling was definitely a torment. Turn around and leave, leaving the city immediately.

"Of course, Maria won't be in Flushing, but she's going to stay in Manhattan. She wants to see Serena play, and she wants to see me play as well."

Although Dimitrov did not describe it in detail, he can probably guess it.

First, Serena Williams is preparing to challenge for the annual Grand Slam in New York. As a direct competitor, Sharapova needs both stimulation and motivation. It takes incredible energy to recover from an injury and then climb the peak again. , she is ready to accumulate this energy for herself.

Secondly, Dimitrov needed her support and companionship. After going through the trough and struggle of Wimbledon, their bond with each other became deeper. They are all fighting their own battles in different ways.

So, Sharapova chose to stay.

Although it was very, very disappointing to have to withdraw from the last major of the year due to injury, this time, she chose to face it in a different way.

History, after all, has undergone some changes—

While it's uncertain where the future will lead, at least for now, that's a good thing.

Gao Wen, this little butterfly, is indeed building a brand new world bit by bit.
